Nowadays, everybody's trying to build their own reputation. They're
trying to make one. This is not the biblical way.

Again, I know this isn't popular, but I just want God glorified. I want
to run with the people that are so quick to empty themselves. They're
over it all.

And the way I'm telling the true biblical way that God gets glory is
Isaiah 66 too. He looks upon those who are broken and contrite in heart
and spirit and tremble at his word. And so it's so beautiful.

Jesus walks this out masterfully, God of all of the universe. And the
Bible says he literally made himself. God didn't do it for him.

He decided this thing. He made himself of no reputation, came in the
form of lowly, non-assuming man, and then walked humbly to the point of
death and took on the form of a bond servant. Then because of this, God
exalted him highly so God would get glory.
