Three Realizations of Saul
•He was on going the wrong
way
Philippians 3:4-9
If someone else thinks they havereasons to put confidence in theflesh, I have more: circumcised onthe eighth day, of the people ofIsrael, of the tribe of Benjamin, aHebrew of Hebrews;
…in regard to the law, a Pharisee;as for zeal, persecuting the church;as for righteousness based on thelaw, faultless.
But whatever were gains to me Inow consider loss for the sake ofChrist.
What is more, I consider everythinga loss because of the surpassingworth of knowing Christ Jesus myLord, for whose sake I have lost allthings.
I consider them garbage, that Imay gain Christ and be found inhim, not having a righteousness ofmy own that comes from the law,but that which is through faith inChrist—the righteousness thatcomes from God on the basis offaith. Philippians 3:4-9
