APRIL 30TH, 1896

I can hardly think any one could put such a construction on Philippians 2. He (Christ) certainly left His first estate to take a servant’s form, becoming in the likeness of men; the Word became flesh to dwell among men, but I do not understand this to mean that He relinquished attributes that properly attached to His Person, though I believe that in becoming Man He entered into the reality of the place He took as Man, and that Scripture can and does view Him (when seen in relation to men) distinct and apart from what He is as God, though what He is as divine gives its character to all.
