5 Have this attitude mind-setunderstandingmental state in you that was also in Christ Jesus.
6 He existed in the form shape and nature of God but did not try to be equal with God. He did not even consider it!
7 He emptied humbled himself by taking the form of a servant. He was made in the likeness of men.
8 He obtained the appearance as a man, humbled himself, and became obedient even to death, yes, death on the stake.

24 »God is a Spirit. They who worship him must worship him with spirit and truth.«
