The Passion of a Servant

October 16, 2022 • Pastor Brett Capaci • Philippians 2:5–11

This week, we explore an amazing text in Philippians chapter 2. It is one of the four major passages in the New Testament that are considered the foundational texts for what is called “Christology” (the theology or academic study of Jesus Christ). The other three, traditionally, are found in John 1, Colossians 1, and Hebrews 1. Philippians gives us unique insight into what we sometimes refer to as “the passion”—which is (in Christianity) a Greek term that refers to the suffering and pain that Jesus experienced on the Cross as He died for us. In this Scripture passage, we can truly see the nature of Jesus as He lived and died on this earth, namely, His servanthood.
