Name Above All Names

Philippians 2:5-11

  1. The Good News is Jesus became nothing.

“It is not that He exchanged the form of God for the form of a slave, but that He manifested the form of God in the form of a slave.” —F.F. Bruce

“The eternal Son did not think his status as God as something that gave him the opportunity to get and get and get. Instead, his very status as God meant he had nothing to prove, nothing to achieve. And precisely because he is one with God, one with this kind of God, he “made himself nothing” and gave and gave and gave. —Don Carson

 

  1. The Good News is Jesus has been exalted to the highest place.
