Summary

The sermon emphasizes that Jesus' purpose was not just atonement but also to be our example by emptying himself and taking the form of a servant, connecting heaven and earth. True discipleship requires adopting the mind and attitude of Christ, which is facilitated by the indwelling Holy Spirit. This transformation means changing one's value system to view people, possessions, and circumstances with Christ's purity and generosity.
