Paul was amazing! He puts the long-winded seminars of the “self-help” gurus to shame in four short verses as he lays the foundational steps we must take to live a successful Christian life. He instructs us not to have an over-inflated view of our own perfection, but keep it as a goal to strive toward. Live in the present, not the past, and reach forward to the future that God has called you to through his Son. Don’t back away from truths you have learned—live them everyday and go on learning the revealed word of God.
