Swat Bible Study

This week, Jesus again instructs the disciples on His death and resurrection, but again, they just don’t get it…they don’t understand. He is has to deal with their worldly ambition, self-exalting exclusivity, and some worldly influences that threaten to destroy His new leadership. He reminds them with a strong graphic message that they are to be humble servants, a “salting” influence for good in the world, and even when they stumble, God will use suffering and discipline to purify them. Is there really a difference between them and the disciples of the Pharisees? Is there a difference between us and the world around us? God’s people are to be known as humble servants of the Most High! John 13:12-17 The night before he was crucified, the one picture He wanted to leave with His disciples is one of service and humility. If we really want to be His Kingdom disciples, we WILL serve others with a humble heart.
