Please read verses 10-13 before you get into this reading for today. There is an important cohesiveness between them. It is kind of like having the horse with the cart.
This reading is a call to mimic or mime or copycat. Paul is very much aware of the saintly life he has lived. He puts his life forth as a witness and proof of the life that can be lived in Christ (verses 10-13). In no way is it a bragging session. "What I have done, you can do," Paul seems to be saying.
