The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Philippians was written while Paul was a prisoner in Rome. This letter, Paul’s farewell message, is filled with gratitude and affection for his Philippian friends, the church which was perhaps dearest to him.

Philippians 3

3:12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
