4. Philippians 3:7-8a amp
But whatever former things I had that
might have been gains to me, I have
come to consider as [one combined] loss
for Christ's sake. Yes, furthermore, I
count everything as loss compared to the
possession of the priceless privilege
5. Philippians 3:8b amp
(the overwhelming preciousness, the
surpassing worth, and supreme
advantage) of knowing Christ Jesus my
Lord and of progressively becoming
more deeply and intimately acquainted
with Him
6. Philippians 3:8c amp
[of perceiving and recognizing and
understanding Him more fully and clearly].
For His sake I have lost everything and
consider it all to be mere rubbish (refuse,
dregs), in order that I may win (gain)
Christ (the Anointed One),
7. Philippians 3:9a amp
And that I may [actually] be found and
known as in Him, not having any [self-
achieved] righteousness that can be called
my own, based on my obedience to the
Law's demands (ritualistic uprightness and
supposed right standing with God thus
acquired),
8. Philippians 3:9b amp
but possessing that [genuine
righteousness] which comes through
faith in Christ (the Anointed One), the
[truly] right standing with God, which
comes from God by [saving] faith.
9. My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.
On Christ the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
10. There is an inextricable link between
righteousness and a relationship with God.
11. There is an inextricable link between
righteousness and your identity.
12. Romans 10:1-3a nkj
Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to
God for Israel is that they may be saved.
For I bear them witness that they have a
zeal for God, but not according to
knowledge. For they being ignorant of
God's righteousness, and seeking to
establish their own righteousness,
13. Romans 10:3b-4,9 nkj
have not submitted to the righteousness
of God. For Christ is the end of the law
for righteousness to everyone who
believes… that if you confess with your
mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your
heart that God has raised Him from the
dead, you will be saved.
14. Romans 10:10 nkj
For with the heart one believes unto
righteousness, and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation.
20. Romans 5:17 nrsv
If, because of the one man's trespass,
death exercised dominion through that
one, much more surely will those who
receive the abundance of grace and the
free gift of righteousness exercise
dominion in life through the one man,
Jesus Christ.
21. Being a Christian is transferring your
trust from what you have been doing to
what Jesus has done.
22. Jesus paid for and has given to you an
unlimited stack of gift certificates for
everything that really matters in life.

28. Your spirit is not a size “0."
You are most certainly bigger than what the world tells
you, and bigger than you think.
There’s more to you then your mistakes, judgements,
brokenness, failures, pain, imperfections, hurt,
opinions, and loss.
So stop trying to squeeze into a zero.
No more adjusting down to zero.
Put on your true size.
Shrink for no one!
And be big!
30. 1 John 2:1 nlt
My dear children, I am writing this to you
so that you will not sin. But if anyone does
sin, we have an advocate who pleads our
case before the Father. He is Jesus Christ,
the one who is truly righteous.
31. But thanks be to God, who gives us the
victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:57 nkj
32. Now thanks be to God who always leads
us in triumph in Christ…
2 Corinthians 2:14a nkj
33. God treats every believer as if they had
done all that Christ had done.
