Philippians 2:6-8

EJ2000(i) 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God, 7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, made in the likeness of men, 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross {Gr. stauros – stake}.
