Description
When Jesus "made himself nothing...taking the nature of a servant," He modeled for all believers true humility. Andrew Murray calls this ""our true nobility"" and ""the distinguishing feature of discipleship."" With insightful, penetrating clarity, Murray calls all Christians to turn from pride, empty themselves, and study the character of Christ to be filled with His grace. Often called the best work on humility ever written, this edition has been edited for today's reader.

A must read for every believer. In Christ is true humility, the God of the Universe, emptied himself and came as Man, makes me to weep. Jesus did not boast of himself, he came to serve. In Christ is true humility. The root of every other virtue is humility, In Christ we will find it.
