What does the Bible say about humility in Christ?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that Christ exemplified true humility by taking on human form and becoming a servant, demonstrating obedience even unto death (Philippians 2:7-8).

Philippians 2:7-8 reveals the profound humility of Christ, who, though being God, chose to take the form of a servant. This act of self-abasement contrasts with humanity's tendency to seek glory and recognition for themselves. By emptying Himself and coming in the likeness of men, Christ not only fulfilled the requirements of redemption but also set an example for believers on how to live humbly and sacrificially. His ultimate act of humility was His willingness to suffer and die for sinners, reminding us that true greatness in the Kingdom of God is found in being a servant to others, not elevating oneself.
