Philippians 2
Paul exhorts believers to unity and humility, imitating Christ's mindset (τοῦτο φρονεῖτε ἐν ὑμῖν ὃ καὶ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ), exemplified in the Christ Hymn (Philippians 2:5–11) where Jesus humbled himself in obedience to God the Father, even to death on a cross, and was exalted with the name above every name. He urges working out salvation with fear and trembling, commends Timothy and Epaphroditus as examples of selfless service.[1][3][5]
