Philippians 2:1-8 ▼

1 Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion,

2 make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose.

3 Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility consider one another as more important than yourselves;

4 do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.

5 Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus,

6 who, as He already existed in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,

7 but emptied Himself by taking the form of a bond-servant and being born in the likeness of men.

8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death: death on a cross.
