Compassion | Philippians 2:5
Having the same attitude as Christ means having compassion for others. That compassion cannot be sourced from within ourselves, but we must seek to be a conduit for Jesus' compassion. Adam Barnett continues our look at Philippians 2:5 and what having the attitude of Christ truly means.

Compassion
Philippians 2:5 | Week 2
October 14, 2018 | Adam Barnett
Jesus’ compassion for humanity is one of His most attractive and appealing attributes.
Mark 1:40 NIV
A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees, “If you are willing, you can make me clean.”
Mark 1:41-42 NIV
Filled with compassion, Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cleansed.
Mark 1:41 MUV
Filled with compassion, Jesus healed the man first, and then reached out, took his hand and helped him up.
Mark 1:43-45 NIV
Jesus sent him away at once with a strong warning: “See that you don’t tell this to anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.” Instead he went out and began to talk freely, spreading the news. As a result, Jesus could no longer enter a town openly but stayed outside in lonely places. Yet the people still came to him from everywhere.
Our leprosy isn’t our SKIN… it’s in our SIN.
