Christ's Humiliation and Exaltation

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.
