As our Pattern, Christ Emptied Himself, Humbled Himself, and was Glorified by God

For us to experience Christ, we need to know Him as the pattern; we need to have Him as the pattern infused into us, realising that Christ emptied Himself and humbled Himself, and later He was exalted and glorified by God. Oh, may this mind be in us – the mind of Christ, the same […]

If we would know Christ as the pattern, we should let the mind which was in Christ Jesus be in us; we need to let this mind be in us, which was also in Christ Jesus. This week we are focusing on, Knowing and Experiencing Christ as the Pattern, as seen mainly in Phil. 2:3-9. […]
