Forgetting those things which are behind. — Phil. 3:13 WE have here St. Paul's plan of life — progress by forgetting, by letting go, the things that are past. "Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before, I press on toward the goal." This is such a wise theory of life that we may profitably study it a few minutes. "Forgetting the things which are behind." There are some things we would like to forget.
