William reads Philippians 2 v5-8 , and considers the complex reality of Jesus being both fully God and fully man.

Philippians 2:5–8

Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,1 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,2 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant,3 being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
