Philippians 2:6 In-Context

4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;

8 And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death— even death on a cross!
