Philippians 2

Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,  who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God,  but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. vv.5-7

Read chapter 2
Jesus was fully God.  It wasn't robbery or something He already had or is His because its his- you can't rob yourself.  He did choose to limit Himself by doing in the form of a man.  But this is the mind w'er to have.  The attitude of our mind leads to godly thinking and understanding.  Something we think is impossible is possible with God.   And He did it in the most humble way in becoming like us because He wanted tot relate to us.  Not coming to us in a big show but of no reputation - to be one of the "norm." How does understanding this man Jesus being fully God make your relations with Him like?
