In The Likeness Of Men


Philippians 2:5-9 ESV
5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name,

The Son of God humbled Himself as the Son of Man, even into the depths of death. Because of this, He is exalted. 
Placing our faith in Jesus, we become sons of God, rising into heaven itself and glorifying God.
We were made in His image. If we have Him inside, we will be like Him on the outside.
