Filipenses 3

La Biblia de las Américas (Español) BLA

1 Por lo demás, hermanos míos, regocijaos en el Señor. A mí no me es molesto escribiros otra vez lo mismo, y para vosotros es motivo de seguridad.

2 Cuidaos de los perros, cuidaos de los malos obreros, cuidaos de la falsa circuncisión;

3 porque nosotros somos la verdadera circuncisión, que adoramos en el Espíritu de Dios y nos gloriamos en Cristo Jesús, no poniendo la confianza en la carne,

4 aunque yo mismo podría confiar también en la carne. Si algún otro cree tener motivo para confiar en la carne, yo mucho más:

5 circuncidado el octavo día, del linaje de Israel, de la tribu de Benjamín, hebreo de hebreos; en cuanto a la ley, fariseo;

6 en cuanto al celo, perseguidor de la iglesia; en cuanto a la justicia de la ley, hallado irreprensible.

7 Pero todo lo que para mí era ganancia, lo he estimado como pérdida por amor de Cristo.

8 Y aún más, yo estimo como pérdida todas las cosas en vista del incomparable valor de conocer a Cristo Jesús, mi Señor, por quien lo he perdido todo, y lo considero como basura a fin de ganar a Cristo,

9 y ser hallado en El, no teniendo mi propia justicia derivada de la ley, sino la que es por la fe en Cristo, la justicia que procede de Dios sobre la base de la fe,

10 y conocerle a El, el poder de su resurrección y la participación en sus padecimientos, llegando a ser como El en su muerte,

11 a fin de llegar a la resurrección de entre los muertos.

12 No que ya lo haya alcanzado o que ya haya llegado a ser perfecto, sino que sigo adelante, a fin de poder alcanzar aquello para lo cual también fui alcanzado por Cristo Jesús.

13 Hermanos, yo mismo no considero haberlo ya alcanzado; pero una cosa hago: olvidando lo que queda atrás y extendiéndome a lo que está delante,

14 prosigo hacia la meta para obtener el premio del supremo llamamiento de Dios en Cristo Jesús.

15 Así que todos los que somos perfectos, tengamos esta misma actitud; y si en algo tenéis una actitud distinta, eso también os lo revelará Dios;

16 sin embargo, continuemos viviendo según la misma norma que hemos alcanzado.

17 Hermanos, sed imitadores míos, y observad a los que andan según el ejemplo que tenéis en nosotros.

18 Porque muchos andan como os he dicho muchas veces, y ahora os lo digo aun llorando, que son enemigos de la cruz de Cristo,

19 cuyo fin es perdición, cuyo dios es su apetito y cuya gloria está en su verguenza, los cuales piensan sólo en las cosas terrenales.

20 Porque nuestra ciudadanía está en los cielos, de donde también ansiosamente esperamos a un Salvador, el Señor Jesucristo,

21 el cual transformará el cuerpo de nuestro estado de humillación en conformidad al cuerpo de su gloria, por el ejercicio del poder que tiene aun para sujetar todas las cosas a sí mismo.

The Message Bible MSG

1 And that's about it, friends. Be glad in God! I don't mind repeating what I have written in earlier letters, and I hope you don't mind hearing it again. Better safe than sorry - so here goes.

2 Steer clear of the barking dogs, those religious busybodies, all bark and no bite. All they're interested in is appearances - knife-happy circumcisers, I call them.

3 The real believers are the ones the Spirit of God leads to work away at this ministry, filling the air with Christ's praise as we do it. We couldn't carry this off by our own efforts, and we know it -

4 even though we can list what many might think are impressive credentials. You know my pedigree:

5 a legitimate birth, circumcised on the eighth day; an Israelite from the elite tribe of Benjamin; a strict and devout adherent to God's law;

6 a fiery defender of the purity of my religion, even to the point of persecuting Christians; a meticulous observer of everything set down in God's law Book.

7 The very credentials these people are waving around as something special, I'm tearing up and throwing out with the trash - along with everything else I used to take credit for. And why? Because of Christ.

8 Yes, all the things I once thought were so important are gone from my life. Compared to the high privilege of knowing Christ Jesus as my Master, firsthand, everything I once thought I had going for me is insignificant - dog dung. I've dumped it all in the trash so that I could embrace Christ

9 and be embraced by him. I didn't want some petty, inferior brand of righteousness that comes from keeping a list of rules when I could get the robust kind that comes from trusting Christ - God's righteousness.

10 I gave up all that inferior stuff so I could know Christ personally, experience his resurrection power, be a partner in his suffering, and go all the way with him to death itself.

11 If there was any way to get in on the resurrection from the dead, I wanted to do it.

12 I'm not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me.

13 Friends, don't get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I've got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward - to Jesus.

14 I'm off and running, and I'm not turning back.

15 So let's keep focused on that goal, those of us who want everything God has for us. If any of you have something else in mind, something less than total commitment, God will clear your blurred vision - you'll see it yet!

16 Now that we're on the right track, let's stay on it.

17 Stick with me, friends. Keep track of those you see running this same course, headed for this same goal.

18 There are many out there taking other paths, choosing other goals, and trying to get you to go along with them. I've warned you of them many times; sadly, I'm having to do it again. All they want is easy street. They hate Christ's Cross.

19 But easy street is a dead-end street. Those who live there make their bellies their gods; belches are their praise; all they can think of is their appetites.

20 But there's far more to life for us. We're citizens of high heaven! We're waiting the arrival of the Savior, the Master, Jesus Christ,

21 who will transform our earthy bodies into glorious bodies like his own. He'll make us beautiful and whole with the same powerful skill by which he is putting everything as it should be, under and around him.
