Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
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.
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
