  5. Imitating Christ’s Humility 5 Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God,did not consider equality with God as something to be exploited,7 but emptied himself.taking the form of a slave, being born in human likeness.8 And being found in human form, he humbled himselfand became obedient to death—even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God also highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name,10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend,in heaven and on earth and under the earth,11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:5-11 (NRSV)
