Verse of the Day

⁶ Christ had the same nature as God.
He was completely equal with God.
But he did not try to keep hold of that.
⁷ Instead, he chose to leave heaven.
He took for himself the nature of a slave.
He became like a human.
⁸ And when he lived as a man,
he made himself even less important.
He obeyed God completely, so that he died.
He even died on a cross!^[a]
