to believers in Philippi:
If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, Fulfill ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.-Philippians 2:1-11***The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that:
-Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.
-Jesus is the Word. Before Jesus, the Word, became flesh, Jesus was with his Father, the Lord God in heaven. Jesus was with his Father in the beginning.
-after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary when Mary was a virgin, Jesus lived among the Israelites, the descendants of Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), Isaac and Rebekah, and Isaac and Rebekah's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob, for less than 33 1/2 years before Jesus was betrayed by Judas Iscariot, the disciple and apostle, and Jesus was arrested.
-there is no sin in Jesus. The Lord God made Jesus to be sin for us. Jesus was manifested to take away sins.
-the Lord God sent Jesus to serve, and to be the propitiation for the sins of the whole world, and to give his life as a ransom, that through Jesus the world might be saved.
-Jesus willingly gave his life to be crucified. Jesus was buried in a tomb, resurrected, seen by over 500 people, and returned to heaven.
-if a person confesses with their mouth Jesus is Lord, and believes in their heart that the Lord God raised Jesus out from the dead, the person will be saved.
