JESUS FIRSTAnd he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of

me.

Jesus Christ – A Servant

Philippians 2:5-11 5Let this mind be in you, which

was also in Christ Jesus: 6Who, being in the form of

God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

Jesus Christ – A Servant

Philippians 2:5-11 7But made himself of no reputation,

and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

8And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

Jesus Christ – A Servant

Philippians 2:5-11 9Wherefore God also hath highly

exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

10That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

Jesus Christ – A Servant

Philippians 2:5-11 11And that every tongue

should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:

which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

Abraham Offers Isaac

Hebrews 11:17-19 17By faith Abraham, when he was

tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,

Abraham Offers Isaac

Hebrews 11:17-19 18Of whom it was said, That in

Isaac shall thy seed be called:

Abraham Offers Isaac

Hebrews 11:17-19 19Accounting that God was able to

raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.

Moses Forsakes Egypt

Hebrews 11:24-27 24By faith Moses, when he

was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;

Moses Forsakes Egypt

Hebrews 11:24-27 25Choosing rather to suffer

affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;

Moses Forsakes Egypt

Hebrews 11:24-27 26Esteeming the reproach of

Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.

Moses Forsakes Egypt

Hebrews 11:24-27 27By faith he forsook Egypt,

not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.

in him should all fulness dwell; 1. Empty your heart 2. Let your heart filled with the

fullness of Christ
