Born in the Likeness of Men...


Philippians 2:5 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.

This passage, describing the mission of the Messiah, beginning with the Incarnation, is the perfect overview of the work of Christ, which also gives us access to the mind of God.  When we comprehend and embrace the mind of God, shown in Christ, dramatic changes will take place in the way we think and live. We will be far less selfish and much more humble - just like He was.  Take time to try to wrap your head around the fact of all He left to come on this mission for you.
