“The Light of Other Centeredness” (Philippians 2:1-11)
Terry Sharbaugh, February 27, 2011Part of the The Light of the World series, preached at a Sunday service
SOMETIMES IT’S ALL ABOUT ATTITUDE:
Yes, it is a communion week, but
next Sunday’s message is still worth a condensed study☺. Much of what we have
focused on in this series of sermons have been the convictions and actions of a
believer who wants to follow God wholeheartedly and change their world. But this
week we focus on an attitude—a way of seeing the world that is totally different
than how most people face life. It is all about “others”.
Philippians 2:1-11
2:1 So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, 2 complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. 3 Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
