Jesus Christ is our Savior and our example, not only for our actions but also for our thoughts and attitudes. What would it be like if we thought the way God thinks? We don’t have to guess, because the Gospel shows us the mind of Christ. He didn’t consider his divine nature something to be used for his own advantage, but humbled himself to save us.
Philippians—Paul’s letter to his partners in the Gospel—shows us how our attitudes, goals, and relationships will be transformed when we have that same mindset—the mind of Christ.
