He made himself what?


Christ Jesus:
Who, being in very nature[a] God,
    did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing
    by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,
    being made in human likeness.
Philippians 2

That passage shows the extent to which Christ had to sacrifice inorder to become a human . But why did he become nothing for us? Because he loved us and still loves us. It is love for the lost world that made christ come down and be born as a child in a manger , and then go to the cross for our sins. Remember , God's message to you on Christmas is that he loves you more than you can ever think or imagine. So great is his love for us.
