When adding this note to Philippians 2:6, from my sermons file, L4 crashes. I can add other notes, some with Bible references, and it works fine. Also, after adding a number of notes to Philippians 2:7, I added the note below to Phil. 2:7 only to have L4 crash again. It has something to do with this note. Any ideas?
The Complete Word Study Dictionary – Jesus continued to be in the form of God, which is what He was before He became man and had always been, for in essence He has always been God. His divine existence in relation to the world is indicated by the phrase, He "thought it not robbery to be equal with God" as He was God among men. He was always God (John 1:1), and He became flesh (John 1:14), and thus on earth He was the God–Man. In fashion, outer appearance, He was man. In essence, form, He was God.
