all worthless garbage when compared to knowing Christ Jesus
Dear Reader, what do your words and actions say about where you place value on Christ when compared to these things? What do you share more with people-what He's doing for you or what you are doing? Are you more concerned about gaining money or things than gaining more of Christ for yourself? May we all hear and learn from Paul's words and value money, reputation, intellect, etc as worthless garbage when compared to knowing Christ.
