   What does Philippians 2:7 mean? Rather than coming to earth to demand others serve Him, Jesus "emptied himself." This does not mean Jesus stopped being God. Rather than coming the first time as a king, Jesus chose not to exhibit His unlimited powers. He came to serve rather than to be served (Matthew 20:28; Mark 10:45).

   Dec 8, 2020 · What does it mean to say that Christ “emptied himself”’? Surely this does not suggest that Christ renounced or even temporarily turned off the use of his divine powers.

   Jan 15, 2024 · Whatever the “emptying” entailed, Jesus remained fully God: “in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form” (Colossians 2:9). It is better to think of Christ’s “emptying” of Himself as a laying aside of the privileges that were His in heaven.

   Jul 15, 2020 · After all, Paul tells us that Jesus emptied himself to become “obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.”. If he only had a divine nature, he could not have died for our sins, because God cannot die. The reason Jesus could die was because he possessed a human nature.
