Questions for Philippians 2:6-11

6) “Being in very nature God.” Jesus is God.

“Equality with God.” Jesus is God.

“He made himself nothing.” Jesus, who is God, made himself nothing or made himself equal to humanity.

“Taking the very nature of a servant.” Jesus became a servant even though he is God and all of us should serve him.

“Being made in human likeness.” Jesus is a deity, which is above humanity.

“He humbled himself by becoming obedient to death.” Jesus became human and humbled himself by giving up his desires and wishes and dying for our sins on the cross.

7) God raised Jesus up to the highest place of honor after his death (the lowest place we can go). Being human is a low place, too.

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 acknowledges that Jesus Christ is Lord,
    to the glory of God the Father.

8 ) Jesus will one day rule here on Earth, and all those who dwell with him will worship him. My response is gratitude that I will be among those who get to worship him forever!

Summary of Philippians 2:5-30

Paul tells his listeners to have the same mindset as Jesus. He humbled himself, became human, and died on the cross for us. Therefore, God exalted him to the highest place. Every knee will bow and say Christ is Lord.

Continue to obey, for God works in you to fulfill His good purpose. Do not grumble or argue so that you may be blameless, pure, and will shine.

Paul hopes to send Timothy and Epaphroditus to them.

Questions for Philippians 2:5-30

1) Jesus humbled himself and became obedient to death. Therefore, he was put on the highest place by God with all worshipping and acknowledging him as Lord. All of these humble me because it’s the ultimate sacrifice. I praise Jesus for his sacrifice so that I may live.

2) God has proved His love for me in Christ every day, firstly by saving me, and secondly, by continually forgiving me, changing me, and drawing me closer to him every day. I would do anything I was called to do. Specifically, I try to live out a Godly life so that others may see Him in me and come to Him. I praise him, talk about him, and try to know him more and more each day.
