“Truly I tell you,” He said, “unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 18:3
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I set aside childish ways. 1 Corinthians 13:11
Brothers, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be mature. 1 Corinthians 14:20
“All of us who are mature should embrace this point of view. And if you think differently about some issue, God will reveal this to you as well.”
“Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of the prize. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead.”
But we must hold on to the progress we have already made. Join together in following my example, brothers and sisters, and just as you have us as a model, keep your eyes on those who live as we do. Philippians 3
