Bible Question:
Is anyone familiar with the term “gracious humility” as an attribute of God or as a Christian grace? This was a new term presented to me today and I am trying to reconcile it with a biblical depiction. WOS |
Bible Answer: Greetings Brother! Another passage to consider. Philippians 2:3-8 (NASB95) 3 Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; 4 do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. 5 Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. 8 Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
