Message: “Humility: The Essential Characteristic of the Christian Life – Philippians 2:1-11” from Timothy Loren Melton

A message from the series "COVID-19." Jesus is our ultimate example of humility. As we read in Philippians 2, Jesus Christ, who was
divine, left His place in heaven, took on the form of a man, and came to earth. But that was
not all. He willingly laid down His life on the cross. He counted Himself amongst those who
were cursed by being killed on a tree (Deuteronomy 21:22-23). For our sake God made Him to
be sin who knew no sin, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.
(2 Corinthians 5:21)

Viewing Our Suffering Through the Lens of Eternity

The book of Revelation is calling us to look through an eternal lens. It is written for those who have their eyes fixed on heaven and not on this world. It is written from the perspective of heaven. If we approach these verses from a worldly perspective, seeking success, pleasure, comfort and material gain, the verses will never make sense. They will be blurry and unclear and even offensive. If we are wearing the lens of the world the reality of God cannot be seen.
