- Jesus humbled himself even unto death on a cross.
- “The lower he stoops to save us, the higher we ought to lift him in our adoring reverence. Blessed be his name, he stoops, and stoops, and stoops, and, when he reaches our level, and becomes man, he still stoops, and stoops, and stoops lower and deeper yet.” – Charles Spurgeon
- His name has been placed above every name. And one day all will bow down and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
