Journey through Lent

From Philippians 2:6-11

Jesus, being in very natues God… made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.

And being found in apprearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death - even death on a cross!

Therefor God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name… Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.
