Philippians 2:6-8, “Who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.”
One key to Jesus’ obedience on earth was the endurance of suffering. This again was something He could only learn by experience after He came to earth and took on humanity. Hebrews 5:8 tells us that “as it is written: though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered.”
