Sermon Notes

Covering John 13:1-17. Right before the Last supper, Jesus shows the ultimate example of servant leadership by washing His disciples feet. John is the only Gospel to record this monumental event. John sets the stage by saying in verse 1; “He now showed them the full extent of His love.” Serving others is truly an ultimate expression of the Father’s love. Why would the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, dressed down like a slave, stoop down and wash dirty feet? John shows us it was because He knew His identity and possessed the Father’s love. Jesus set an example for us that we should do likewise and even promises that we will be blessed if we do. We can serve others because our identity is in Christ.
