What do you see about Christ in
Philippians 2:5 – 11? Can you use this passage to share the Gospel? How expansive
is this passage – how far back does it reach, how far forward? What mysteries
does it challenge us with?
What do you see about Advent in
the passage? The life of Christ? Easter? The future?
Why not meditate on this passage
for a few days and we’ll come back to it on Monday. As you meditate and ponder,
make notes about what you see. How is God the Holy Spirit speaking to you through
this passage?
Philippians 2:5 – 11 (NASB):
“Have this attitude in yourselves
which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God,
did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself,
taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. Being
found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the
point of death, even death on a cross. For this reason also, God highly exalted
Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the
name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and
under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.”
