AI OVERVIEW: Consolation in Christ and the comfort of love compel believers to pursue unity and mutual care within the body, as Christians cared for the sick and orphans during plagues, being of one mind and one heart. If there is consolation in Christ and comfort of love, Christians are to act not from selfish ambition or vain glory but in humility, esteeming others as better than themselves and looking to the interests of others. Jesus embodies the pattern: though equal with God, he emptied himself, took the form of a servant, and humbled himself to death on the cross, and God exalted him, so that every knee should bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord.
