How do we know that Jesus was humble and approachable?
Answered in 1 source
Jesus’ humility is displayed in His life choices and His interactions with others, demonstrating His approachability.
Christ's humility is vividly illustrated in Philippians 2:8, where Paul notes that Christ, though in the form of God, humbled Himself and became obedient to death. This is not just seen in His birth as a poor man without worldly privilege but also in His actions throughout His ministry, as He interacted with the marginalized, the sick, and sinners. He invited them to come to Him, stating in Matthew 11:28, 'Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.' His gentle invitation shows that He is approachable and willing to embrace those who are weary and burdened.
