{ "id": "basics-u3-l3-5-q09", "question": "Based on Philippians 2:1–11, describe the attitude of Jesus Christ toward people, toward Himself, and toward His mission in life.", "answer": "Philippians 2 shows the attitude of Christ in three directions. Toward people, He treated every member of the human race as more important than Himself, even though He was God in the flesh; He made people know they were valuable by the way He treated them and spent His whole life looking out for the interests of others. Toward Himself, though He existed in the form of God and did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, He emptied Himself, took the form of a bondservant, and humbled Himself. Toward His mission, He came not to be served but to serve and to give His life a ransom for many, becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross—for which God highly exalted Him and gave Him the name above every name.", "url": "/faq/based-on-philippians/", "unit": 3, "lesson": "3-5", "lesson_title": "The Goal—Spiritual Maturity", "question_type": "comprehension", "tier": 1, "faq_class": "review", "aeo_questions": [ "What is the attitude of Jesus Christ towards humanity according to Philippians 2:1-11?", "How did Jesus Christ treat people with respect to His own importance and status as God?", "What was Jesus Christ's mission on earth and how did He fulfill it according to Philippians 2:5-11?" ], "topic_anchor": null, "derivation": "voice-rewritten", "source_authority": "authoritative", "author": "Gene Cunningham", "book": "The Basics", "source": { "doc_id": "btbm-01-TheBasics-8-10-24", "ref": "The Basics, Unit 3, Lesson 3-5 -
