Hi;
Phillipians 3;3  " For we who are doing divine service in the Spirit of God are the circumcision and are boasting in Christ and NOT having confidence in the flesh."

vs 7-9  " But whatever things were gain to me, the same I have accounted loss for the Christ's sake; yes without doubt I account ALL things to be loss because of the excellency of the knowledge of my Lord Jesus Christ, for the sake of whom I have suffered the loss of ALL things and do account them rubbish in order that I may win Christ and be found in Him, NOT having a righteousness of my own, that which is by the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is of God upon my faith,

Seems to be that the true circumcision is not relying on works of self- cut away the flesh- but relying on what Christ did for us.
