腓立比書2:5-10

 

2:5 你們要以基督耶穌的心為心：
2:6 他原有上帝的本質，卻沒有濫用跟上帝同等的特權。
2:7 相反地，他自願放棄一切，取了奴僕的本質。他成為人，以人的形體出現。
2:8 他自甘卑微，順服至死，且死在十字架上。
2:9 因此，上帝高舉他，及於至高，賜給他那超越萬名的名號。
2:10 為要尊崇耶穌的名，天上、人間，和地底下的眾生都得向他下拜，

Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death–even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

***************************

    耶穌基督不是自己為自己建立權柄，反倒是『自甘卑微，順服至死，且死在十字架上』。

    今天我們要成為領袖，也是如此，必須放下自己，先使自己成為眾人的僕人。以前聽說一句話，「登高必自卑」，這話的意思也是如此。要沒有自我中心的人，才能真正使人服你，才能得人。

    所以耶穌告訴彼得：『跟從我！』

    效法耶穌的放下自我中心，才能從罪中被釋放，因為「自我中心」是罪性之表現，一個人要脫離「自我中心」，才能有真自由，這是主要賜給我們之福分，求主幫助！
