Paul teaches that mature Christians are serious about the things of God and pursue God seriously, because when Christ is revealed in all His glory, we want to be raised with Him. We want all the riches. We want Him with us always. We don't want a life-sized salvation; rather, we want an eternity-sized salvation. So we don't stop at conversion; we press on.
