    This sermon is going to review the story of Jesus washing the disciple’s feet and in doing so will emphasize how important it is to love while on one’s knees as His servant!

    The Submissive Sovereign

    While in the Upper Room, just hours prior to the Crucifixion, Jesus humbled Himself, assuming the position of a slave to wash the disciples' feet. Although He knew their hearts, He washed the feet of each one.

    The Submissive Sovereign John 13: 1-5 I am well aware that all Scripture was given by inspiration of God, through the Holy Spirit for our benefit; but this is one of those passages that almost seems too holy for mere mortals to impose upon. Our Lord is in his last hours upon this earth. Very soon ...read more

    Why should we humble ourselves to do menial and low level jobs for others? Because Jesus humbled himself to wash the disciles feet.

    Why Should I Do It? 7/15/2018 John 13:12-17 Acts 1:1-11 Have you ever been in a situation in which somebody asked you to do something that you really didn’t want to do it, and you even thought it was unfair for them to ask you to do it.

    Love on Display John 13:1, 31-35 When it comes to loving the model for every believer is the Lord Himself. We can truly never love without the gift of the Holy Spirit and complete yielding unto Him in this grace.

    Servanthood is the only godly leadership the Bible teaches. Leadership through domination, manipulation and control are considered the spirit of witchcraft, and of course, releases the wrong spirit.

    Forgive--You Don’t Have A Choice

     | 6,028 views

    Many Christians believe that they have the right to forgive or not forgive a wrong done to them. Jesus disagrees.

    Forgive – You Don’t Have A Choice We know that even though Jesus lived during the time the Law was in effect, he didn’t teach the law. Jesus taught principles from the kingdom of God. That will be very important to keep in mind this morning. We are going to be in John 13 and to give you a quick ...read more

    From Words To Actions

    Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Mar 13, 2018
     | 5,625 views

    It is one thing for Jesus to say that he loves his disciples, but he puts these words into action when he washes their feet. At the same time, Jesus demonstrates to us that love needs to go beyond words and is seen in service.

    INTRODUCTION Love is in the air—or at least the airwaves. A majority of songs on the stations that I listen to are songs about love. I suspect that the same can be said about the songs and stations to which you listen. Love is a BIG force in our lives, yet as one song suggests, “There’s just too ...read more

    John 13:1-17, 34-35 Being Disciples You wouldn’t think it would be all that difficult. We are all formed from the dust of the earth, but the same Creator.

    Why do we need to fix our mind’s eyes on His Divine Radiance, especially during this holy week? Or, what can we experience, if we gaze on the Excellence of His qualities?

    “Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. During supper, when the devil had already put it into the heart of ...read more

    Tonight, we gather in the sacred shadow of the upper room, on the night when Jesus showed us what love really looks like. It’s not dressed up in flowery words or grand gestures meant to impress. It’s gritty. It’s raw. And it’s humbling.

    Opening Prayer Let us pray: Gracious God, as we gather on this holy night, we are drawn to the upper room where Your Son shared His final meal with His disciples. Open our hearts to hear Your Word anew, and may we be inspired to love one another as He has loved us. Amen. Introduction Tonight, we ...read more

    A sermon on worship - on both connecting with the past, and on intimacy with God.

    In the 1960s something beautiful happened in the Roman Catholic Church. It was called the Second Vatican Council In it they suddenly decided to do almost all the things we Anglicans had been begging them to do for 500 years.

    Humility Of Christ

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on May 24, 2024
     | 699 views

    In our text we see the Lord Jesus loving men who did not deserve it. Luke (22:24) tells us that at the Lord’s Supper, just after Jesus announced that one of them would betray Him, the disciples got into a dispute about which of them was the greatest.

    Opening illustration: We all can relate to Linus in the “Peanuts” cartoon strip when he shouts in frustration, “I love mankind; it’s people I can’t stand!” It’s easy to love the human race in the abstract, but when it comes to loving specific irritating people that I can’t avoid, the process ...read more
