Come to the Lord

⁷ But everything that was a gain to me, I have considered to be a loss because of Christ. ⁸ More than that, I also consider everything to be a loss in view of the surpassing value^(A) of knowing Christ^(B) Jesus my Lord. Because of him I have suffered the loss of all things and consider them as dung, so that I may gain Christ^(C)

¹⁸ I advise you to buy from me gold refined in the fire so that you may be rich,^(A) white clothes so that you may be dressed and your shameful nakedness not be exposed,^(B) and ointment to spread on your eyes so that you may see.
