Paul is encouraging us to think rightly about life. Paul wanted nothing to intefere with knowing Christ. His one thought was to attain the resurrection of the dead. This is the foundation in which our thinking should rest in order to see clearly. We are encouraged to think of Christ: what He has done for us in the past and what He will do for you in the future. Our citizenship is in heaven! We eagerly wait for our Savior. This is our hope. We are called to remember that nothing we experience now will compare to the glory that awaits us in heaven. With all this in mind we are called to live a godly life.
