The genuine humility we must have

in #steemchurch5 years ago

Therefore, if there is any consolation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any communion of the Spirit, if some affectionate affection, if any mercy, complete my joy, feeling the same, having the same love, unanimous, feeling the same thing.

Do not do anything for contention or for pride; rather, with humility, esteeming each other as superior to himself; not each looking for his own, but each also for the others. Let there be, then, in you this feeling that there was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider being equal to God as a thing to cling to, but stripped himself, taking the form of a servant, made similar to men; and being in the condition of man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient until death, and the death of a cross.

Therefore, God also exalted him to the utmost, and gave him a name that is above every name, so that in the name of Jesus every knee of those in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth will be bent. land; and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Philippians 2: 1-11 NIV

In this passage we can observe that Jesus being God sw stripped of all his power to make the sacrifice of the cross, became obedient with the purpose of saving fallen humanity that was lost by sin.

it is a sign of love and true humility, because if Jesus Christ had not died ppt love on the cross, we would not have had access to the wonderful grace of the Lord, who washes us with his precious blood of sin.

However, the focus I want to denote is the fact that the Apostle says that there is in you the same feeling and what I can appreciate is that we must have the same attitude of being men and women with a dosil character, being teachable.

It is very clear that we must love others but this will not be possible without us becoming humble of heart.
