Who Is The Greatest?

Jesus tells the 12 of His impending fate and resurrection for the
second time.
The disciples were afraid to ask questions and did not
understand.
Their hearts were consumed with self and their own potential
greatness.
Jesus says greatness is only achieved in the Kingdom through
serving.
A child is brought in to demonstrate the need for humility as
well as serving without the applause of people but to the Glory
of God.
Another argument about someone other than the 12 casting a demon
arises with John.
Jesus explains that even if “anyone” give a cup of cold water to
one of his own it doesn’t go unrewarded.
Jesus only has six months left with these future world changers
and they must learn to deny self-recognition and glorify
God.
We are much like the men when we compete and seek approval from
others.

1. Have you ever found yourself seeking the approval of
others?
2. What does serving others look like?
3. What was your personal take-away from Sunday’s sermon?
4. How can serving others change your own heart?
