Subject: Not Self-Deprecation but Self-Abnegation |
Bible Note: "A life of self-sacrificing unselfishness is the most divinely, beautiful life that man can lead. He whom as our Master we have engaged to obey, whom as our Example we are pledged to imitate, is presented to us here as the great model of self-sacrificing unselfishness...it is not self-deprecation, but self-abnegation, that is thus commended to us. If we would follow Christ, we must, every one of us, not in pride but in humility, yet not in lowness but in lowliness, not degrade ourselves but forget ourselves, and seek every man not his own things but those of others." --B.
