9/7 - John 13: 1–17 “Service and Humility”
Jesus Washes His Disciples’ Feet
13 Before
the Passover celebration, Jesus knew that his hour had come to leave
this world and return to his Father. He had loved his disciples during
his ministry on earth, and now he loved them to the very end. 2 It was time for supper, and the devil had already prompted Judas, son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus. 3 Jesus knew that the Father had given him authority over everything and that he had come from God and would return to God. 4 So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him.
6 When Jesus came to Simon Peter, Peter said to him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?”7 Jesus replied, “You don’t understand now what I am doing, but someday you will.”
8 “No,” Peter protested, “you will never ever wash my feet!”
Jesus replied, “Unless I wash you, you won’t belong to me.”
9 Simon Peter exclaimed, “Then wash my hands and head as well, Lord, not just my feet!”
10 Jesus replied, “A person who has bathed all over does not need to wash, except for the feet, to be entirely clean. And you disciples are clean, but not all of you.” 11 For Jesus knew who would betray him. That is what he meant when he said, “Not all of you are clean.”
12 After washing their feet, he put on his robe again and sat down and asked, “Do you understand what I was doing? 13 You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and you are right, because that’s what I am. 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. 15 I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you. 16 I tell you the truth, slaves are not greater than their master. Nor is the messenger more important than the one who sends the message. 17 Now that you know these things, God will bless you for doing them.

ReplyDeleteI want the worship leaders to be careful and pick responses, thoughts and songs that are closely related to the message. If anyone needs clarification on what the sermon is about please contact me. September sermons are part of a sermon series that looks at the principles behind the four elements of Love Feast. The principle of the first Sunday is the willingness to humbly serve others and also to be humble enough to be served. 9/14 the principle is the love we show each other through our fellowship. 9/21 is the redemptive love of Jesus through His sacrifice for us. 9/28 is the importance to examine our hearts and deal with the sin that is there. Sorry this is so long but I feel this is very important to introduce love feast to our newer people as something more than a tradition that we do. I also want to thank each of you for the great job that you do and the dedication to serving God. I am proud of each of you and love all of you!!
