4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
We are to have the mind of Christ. How can we know what His attitude what, what He was thinking? By looking at His actions. He sacrificed for us. He gave up the perfections of heaven to come down to us. He spent His life serving the needs of people. He gave up His life to die for our sins. He was humility in the flesh. We as the corporate people of God need to demonstrate that, which requires that each of us individually have such an attitude and lifestyle, so when blended together as one, the world around us cannot help but seeing Christ, which draws them to Him, to trust and receive the Gift God sent with Him. Let each of us do our part today.
