Why is Christ's humiliation important for Christians?
Answered in 2 sources
Christ's humiliation is essential as it underscores His role as our substitute and the fulfillment of God's plan for salvation.
Christ's humiliation demonstrates God's condescension, showing that He took on human nature and experienced death for our sins. Philippians 2:7-8 highlights that He humbled Himself and became obedient to death. This ultimate act of humility was necessary for the redemption of sinners, proving that salvation is not based on human effort but on Christ's completed work. Understanding this encourages Christians to recognize their total dependence on His grace for salvation and living a life that glorifies God.
