Who is this man?

 


Titles are only opportunities to serve.

Jesus died stripped of his robe, convicted by the law, and given the mocking title "king of the Jews." He wore the garb of a slave, took the position of a slave, did the work of a slave, and suffered the death of a slave.

What was noted about Jesus is that he chose this. What may be the earliest writing about him said that "he humbled himself" In the Roman Empire, someone might be humbled, by losing money or status or title.

No one deliberately humbled himself.

Until now.
