7 But he emptied himself by taking the form of a slave and by becoming like human beings. When he found himself in the form of a human,
8 he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
9 Therefore, God highly honored him and gave him a name above all names,
10 so that at the name of Jesus everyone in heaven, on earth, and under the earth might bow
11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
12 Therefore, my loved ones, just as you always obey me, not just when I am present but now even more while I am away, carry out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
13 God is the one who enables you both to want and to actually live out his good purposes.
