Christ was in the form of God
-did not count equality with God as something to be grasped
-emptied himself by taking the form of a servant, born in the likeness of men
-humbled himself by being obedient to death, even on a cross
Therefore God has highly exalted him, name above all names
So That

-every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord
-to the glory of God the Father.
