Christ's Descending Humiliation


Speaker Notes

Philippians 2:5-11

In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

Who, being in very nature God,
    did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothingent
    by taking the very nature of a servant,
    being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
    he humbled himself
    by becoming obedient to death—
        even death on a cross!

Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
    and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
    to the glory of God the Father.

The Descents of Christ

1 - He Emptied Himself
2 - He Took The Form of a Servant
3 - He Was Born in the Likeness of Man
4 - He Humbled Himself
5 - He Became Obedient
6 - He Died Willingly
7 - He Experienced Death on a Cross
