More questions from Philippians Ch. 2

We will dig deeper into the meaning of Phil. 2:5-11, using a few more questions:
  1. Do you have to strive and build up an argument to establish that you are in fact a human being?
  2. What group of humans are subject to this predicament, that other humans must strive and build up an argument to establish that the individuals in that subgroup are in fact human beings, and that still other humans do not accept this argument?
  3. Are there beings that are fully human and other beings only a fraction human?
  4. Do we claim that, like the Greeks claimed about their gods, that God the Father is a little bit larger or greater than God the Son?
  5. Does humility reside in the strong chains of a humbled slave, or does it exist elsewhere?
  6. Is there any humility in the Eucharist?

Let's begin with these questions on Thursday morning, and thereby gaze deeply into the perfect law of freedom.
