We have so much to be grateful for, and most of all we can give thanks for Christ Jesus leaving the heights of heaven and coming to dwell among us, taking our sin, destroying death and making eternity in heaven possible to thise who call upon His name. Chad meditates on this most wonderful hymn from Paul's letter to the Phillipians and calls us to be ever grateful for the finished work of our Saviour. Jeff Anderson sings "You Took the Way Down".

We have the mind of Christ

We have the mind of Christ

 

 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be exploited,  but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.  And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.  Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name,  so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,  and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Salvation's story

You took the way down

The Lord of glory

You took the way down

You came down to earth

So we can enter Your rest

And wait for the day

Every knee shall bow

Every tongue confess

That Jesus is Lord

We have the mind of Christ

We have the mind of Christ
