<p>1:29- see on Lk. 13:24.</p><p><i>For this purpose I labour, striving according to his power, which works in me mightily</i>- As explained on :11, this power is boundless. And it works through us if we seek to save others and bring them within God's saving purpose. Never therefore need we fear lack of power, resources etc. in performing His mission. Paul can say that he has not yet become complete (Phil. 3:10-14) and yet he seeks to present each of his converts &ldquo;complete in Christ&rdquo; (Col. 1:28). He recognized that he too hadn&rsquo;t got to where he was seeking to take his converts.</p>
