Paul told the church, “Don't be selfish or try to look important. Think about other people first!”
He said, “Be like Jesus.” Jesus is God, but He didn't hold on to being important.
Jesus became a servant. He was born as a baby and even died on the cross for us. So God made Jesus the greatest, and one day everyone will bow and say, “Jesus is Lord!”
