Philippians 3:16

By that same rule let us walk (tw autw stoixein) Aleph A B do not have kanoni (rule). Besides stoixein is the absolute present active infinitive which sometimes occurs instead of the principal verb as in Romans 12:15. Paul means simply this that, having come thus far, the thing to do is to go "in the same path" (tw autw) in which we have been travelling so far. A needed lesson for Christians weary with the monotony of routine in religious life and work.
