in a field, which a man found and covered up.

and buys that field.

1 If then you have been raised with Christ, seek
the things that are above, where Christ is, seated
at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on
things that are above, not on things that are on
earth. 3 For you have died, and your life is hidden
with Christ in God. 4 When Christ who is your life
appears, then you also will appear with him in
glory.

die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds
of the body, you will live.

fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with
him in order that we may also be glorified with
him.

predestined to be conformed to the image of his
Son, in order that he might be the firstborn
among many brothers.

even as I have been fully known.

24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners
run, but only one receives the prize? So run that
you may obtain it. 25 Every athlete exercises selfcontrol in all things. They do it to receive a
perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. 26 So
I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating
the air. 27 But I discipline my body and keep it
under control, lest after preaching to others I
myself should be disqualified.
1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (ESV)
