Rubbish, that's what we should count it as.

Phillipians 3:8 - More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ,








Do you? Do I?

Is Paul able to count all things as rubbish just because he suffered the loss of those things? Can we still have "all things" and count them as rubbish?

Paul admits that losing all those things caused him suffering, so did he not count them as rubbish until after he lost them?

What do I need to lose?

What do you need to lose?

What does it mean to "gain Christ"? Once we're saved, have we gained Him and now that part's done?

What say ye?
