Philippians 2:8 tells us that Jesus was so obedient to His Father...obedient "to death"...even death on a Cross (NIV)! The New International Version's translation has really struck me.
"And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
and became obedient to death—
even death on a cross!"
Most of us will become "obedient" only "so far". Jesus went the farthest...the complete distance..."even" death on the Cross!
How far will we go in obeying God the Father?
Fill in the blank for yourself: " Jeff became obedient to _______--even_______."
