**form of God**
"Form," etc. (Greek - μορφή , the form by which a person or thing strikes the vision, the external appearance)."--Thayer. CF [John 17:15](../../../kjv/john/17/15). "The glory which I had with Thee before the world was." Nothing in this passage teaches that the Eternal Word [John 1:1](../../../kjv/john/1/1) emptied Himself of either His divine nature, or His attributes, but only of the outward and visible manifestation of the Godhead. "He emptied, stripped Himself of the insignia of Majesty."--Lightfoot. "When occasion demanded He exercised His divine attributes."-- Moorehead. CF *(See Scofield "*[John 1:1](../../../kjv/john/1/1)*")* . See Scofield "[John 1:1](../../../kjv/john/1/1)"
**robbery** a thing to be grasped after. See, [Genesis 3:5-6](../../../kjv/genesis/3/5-6).

**salvation**
*(See Scofield "**")* .

**world**
kosmos = mankind. *(See Scofield "**")* .

**the day**
*(See Scofield "**")* .
