1 Corinthians 9:24-27
24 aDo you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives bthe prize? cRun in such a way that you may win. 25 Now everyone who acompetes in the games exercises self-control in all things. They then do it to receive a corruptible bcrown, but we an incorruptible. 26 Therefore I arun in such a way, as not without aim; I box in such a way, as not bbeating the air; 27 but I discipline amy body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.
Hebrews 12:1
Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of Faith
Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, alaying aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, let us brun with cendurance the race that is set before us,
Hebrews 12:2
2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the aauthor and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him bendured the cross, cdespising the shame, and has dsat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
