Pressing On To Possess That Perfection For Which Christ Jesus First Possessed Us

As we are finding out in continuously clearer fashion each and every day, the separation in the church, which we have heard about potentially for decades, has now begun, and it is going to be with us to the end of this age. Our response? Let's embrace what the Apostle Paul says in Philippians 3:12-15 (AMP)...,
12 Not that I have already obtained it [this goal of being Christlike] or have already been made perfect, but I actively press on so that I may take hold of that [perfection] for which Christ Jesus took hold of me and made me His own. 13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider that I have made it my own yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the [heavenly] prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. 15 All of us who are mature [pursuing spiritual perfection] should have this attitude.
