Philippians - Irving L. Jensen - Bog

This Self-Study Guide will introduce you to the church at Philippi, where Paul maintained a close and unique relationship with the people who supported him spiritually and financially. Out of a heart of gratitude, he wrote them a thank you letter while imprisoned at Rome. In it Paul described one of the most important and poignant teachings regarding Jesus Christ. In the second chapter he discusses kenosis--the self-imposed humiliation that typified the life of the Lord as a humble servant and His obedience to an undeserved sacrificial death for humanity.
