What is the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus? Paul describes it as the goal every believer should eagerly pursue. Yet without understanding what this prize truly is, how can we hope to attain it? In this passage Paul not only defines the nature of this heavenly calling but also shows us the mindset and discipline needed to press forward toward it. His words challenge us to live with eternal focus, striving together as those who long to lay hold of all that Christ intends for us.
