Bible Question: WOULD YOU EXPLAIN PHILIPPIANS 2:5-8 FOR ME PLEASE |
Bible Answer: Philp.2:5-8 (ICB) In your lives you must think and act like Christ Jesus. 6.) Christ himself was like God in everything. He was equal with God. But he did not think that being equal with God was something to be held on to. 7.) He gave up his place with God and made himself nothing. He was born to be a man and became like a servant. 8.) And when he was living as a man, he humbled himself and was fully obedient to God. He obeyed even when that caused his death-death on the cross. In short order, we should be like Christ, and be obedient to God no matter what the price, no matter what our status in life is. Jesus Christ was equal with God. He created this whole universe and everything in it, and yet he came out of heaven and washed the feet of man, he came down here to be an example of how we should live. We should be obedient to God, and we should love on another. This is what Christ did, this is how we should be. |
