Paul declared, 'Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect; but...forgetting those things which are behind,' constantly beholding the Pattern, I reach 'forth unto those things which are before.' To walk in the light means to 'walk uprightly,' to walk 'in the way of the Lord,' to 'walk by faith,' to 'walk in the Spirit,' to 'walk in the truth,' to 'walk in love,' to 'walk in the newness of life.' It is 'perfecting holiness in the fear of God.'"
Hutakiwi kupumzika ukiwa umeridhika tu kwa kusema, Mimi ni mtoto wa Mungu. Je, unamtazama Yesu, na, kwa kumtazama, unabadilika kufanana naye? Kutembea katika nuru humaanisha kusonga mbele na maendeleo katika kupata mambo ya kiroho. Paulo alitamka, Si kwamba nimekwisha kufika, au nimekwisha kuwa mkamilifu; la! bali...nikiyasahau yaliyo nyuma, daima nikiangalia Kielelezo, ninasogea nikiyachuchumilia yaliyo mbele. Kutembea katika nuru humaanisha kutembea kikamilifu, kutembea kwa imani, kutembea katika Roho, kutembea katika kweli, kutembea katika upendo, kutembea katika upya wa maisha.
