Jesus Christ is the authority – Philippians 2:1-11

Philippians 2:1-11

2 If there be therefore any consolation (calling, summons) in (resting within) Christ, if any comfort (stimulating force) of love, if any fellowship (Participating, partaking, sharing, communion) of the Spirit (spiritual feelings or desires), if any bowels (inward parts) and mercies (pity or compassion),

² Fulfil (Complete) ye my joy, that (in order that) ye be likeminded (think the same), having the same love, being of one accord (unity of life and love), of one mind (minding the same thing).

³ Let nothing (not one thing) be done through (according to) strife (works for ambition) or vainglory (empty as to glory); but in lowliness (humility) of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

⁴ Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

⁵ Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

⁶ Who, being in the form (abstract form) of God, thought it not robbery (the act of robbery) to be equal (having the same size, strength) with God:

⁷ But made himself of no reputation (emptied himself), and took upon him the form (abstract form) of a servant, and was made (becoming) in (resting within) the likeness of men:

⁸ And being found in fashion (shape) as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

⁹ Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

¹⁰ That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

¹¹ And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Phillipians 3:1

3 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord…
