Philippians 3:5

Overview - Philippians 3
He warns them to beware of the false teachers of the circumcision;
shewing that himself has greater cause than they to trust in the righteousness of the law;
which notwithstanding he counts as dung and loss, to gain Christ and his righteousness;
12 therein acknowledging his own imperfection.
15 He exhorts them to be thus minded;
17 and to imitate him,
18 and to decline the ways of carnal Christians.
