DIG DEEPER
How does Philippians 2:5-8 explain why Jesus became human?
Did you know that the first Passover was when the Israelites were slaves in Egypt? Pharaoh ignored all of God’s plagues and wouldn’t let God’s people go. The last plague was the death of the firstborn son. God told everyone the angel of death would pass over them if they did the following: sacrifice a lamb, cover their home’s doorpost with the lamb’s blood, and have everyone in the family inside the house. Everyone in Egypt could have been saved if they believed what God said. Sadly enough, most of the Egyptians, including Pharaoh, didn’t listen and lost their firstborn son. Because of the death of his son, Pharaoh let the people go. God saved the Israelites from slavery. This story was a “prequel” to what Jesus would do on the cross. We don’t have to sacrifice a lamb anymore and paint our doorpost because the True Lamb, Jesus, sacrificed Himself so His blood could cover our sin. Jesus couldn’t do this if He wasn’t human.
