Of Goals

"Not that I have already attained this - that is, I have not already been perfected - but I strive to lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus also laid hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself to have attained this. Instead I am single-minded: Forgetting the things that are behind and reaching out for the things that are ahead, with this goal in mind, I strive toward the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 3:12-14

"And, after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace who called you to his eternal glory in Christ will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you."
1Peter 5:10

"to equip the saints for the work of ministry, that is, to build up the body of Christ,"
Ephesians 4:12

"Pursue peace with everyone, and holiness, for without it no one will see the Lord."
Hebrews 12:14

"I will grant the one who conquers permission to sit with me on my throne, just as I too conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne."
Revelation 3:21
