Philippians 2:6
The Bible says, "being in the form of GOD". Asking the HOLY SPIRIT why it was stated this way, I asked Him to show me through scripture what it could mean to we as believers. Then He brought to mind the following Bible passage. This is a phrase that caught my attention for a reason that may seem far fetched to some. Please allow me to expound. The word "formed" is brought to our attention in the first book of the Bible. Genesis 2:7 tells us that "the LORD GOD formed man". I believe that in verse 6 of Philippians 2 we see within this passage that it is bringing to mind the prophetic thought of the CHRIST coming as a man. The verse goes on to states, "thought it not robbery". I believe if it were not the GOD Head's purpose it could have been called robbery. The reason for submitting this idea comes from the remainder of the verse that states,"to be equal with GOD".
Only a part of the GOD Head could be equal with GOD and no other. When thee LORD of Glory wanted to redeem man He left His throne and became a man for the purpose of dying, by shedding His perfect untainted blood on the cross for our sins. GOD's plan is always perfect and only the perfection of a HOLY GOD could have accomplished this Sacrifice.
What a wonderful Savor we have and how He through His perfect great love gave all. Thank You LORD.
