Philippians 2:3-9 Good News Bible (GNB)

3. Don't do anything from selfish ambition or from a cheap desire to boast, but be humble towards one another, always considering others better than yourselves.

4. And look out for one another's interests, not just for your own.

5. The attitude you should have is the one that Christ Jesus had:

6. He always had the nature of God,but he did not think that by force he should try to remain equal with God.

7. Instead of this, of his own free will he gave up all he had,and took the nature of a servant.He became like a human beingand appeared in human likeness.

8. He was humble and walked the path of obedience all the way to death —his death on the cross.

9. For this reason God raised him to the highest place aboveand gave him the name that is greater than any other name.
