Get Biblical Understanding #140 - HUMILITY

PHILIPPIANS 2:5-9 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:COLOSSIANS 2:18 Let no man beguile you [cheat you] of your reward in a voluntary [false] humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,COLOSSIANS 2:20-23 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, (Touch not; taste not; handle not; Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men? Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship [self-imposed religion], and [false] humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh. COLOSSIANS 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;JAMES 1:9-11 Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted: But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away. For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.JAMES 4:6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.JAMES 4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.JAMES 4:16 But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.
