Serving Just Like Jesus (4 of 6)
Series: The Apprentice
Frank Damazio
Luke 22:27
SERVING JUST LIKE JESUS
Jesus was the model of what it means to be a servant. To live like a servant is to live like Jesus. The gospels portray Jesus as the servant who laid His life down for others. We don't live life by using power, position, title, or authority. The kingdom of God is fueled by serving, a servant's heart, humility, and kindness. This is how we follow our Master. We are to live out Philippians 2:3-4: ''Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.''
