Philippians 3:7-8, 10

Howbeit what things were gain to me, these have I counted loss for Christ. Yea verily, and I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but refuse, that I may gain Christ

that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed unto his death
