Philippians 2:1-4

Christ's Example of Humility

1 So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from f love, any g participation in the Spirit, any h affection and sympathy, 2 i complete my joy by being j of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. 3 Do nothing from k rivalry or l conceit, but in m humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you n look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.
