Notes

Philippians 3:10

to know Christ: By knowing Jesus Christ, a person knows and is accepted by God (compare 3:7–8; John 1:12–13; 17:3).
Believers experience the mighty power that raised Christ from the dead, both now and in eternity (see Romans 6:4–14; 8:10–11; Colossians 3:1–4).
the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to Him in His death: United with Christ, a believer has the privilege of experiencing his life and death (see Philippians 1:29; 2 Corinthians 4:10–12; Colossians 1:24; 1 Peter 4:13–16).

Philippians 3:2–11

Paul warns believers not to be influenced by Jewish Christians who say circumcision is necessary for salvation. Paul then talks about his own conversion from Judaism to following Christ.
