Philippians 2:1-10 New Century Version (NCV)

1. Does your life in Christ give you strength? Does his love comfort you? Do we share together in the spirit? Do you have mercy and kindness?

2. If so, make me very happy by having the same thoughts, sharing the same love, and having one mind and purpose.

3. When you do things, do not let selfishness or pride be your guide. Instead, be humble and give more honor to others than to yourselves.

4. Do not be interested only in your own life, but be interested in the lives of others.

5. In your lives you must think and act like Christ Jesus.

6. Christ himself was like God in everything.But he did not think that being equal with God was something to be used for his own benefit.

7. But he gave up his place with God and made himself nothing.He was born as a manand became like a servant.

8. And when he was living as a man,he humbled himself and was fully obedient to God,even when that caused his death—death on a cross.

9. So God raised him to the highest place.God made his name greater than every other name

10. so that every knee will bow to the name of Jesus—everyone in heaven, on earth, and under the earth.
