Jesus Christ, Servant of Love

Fifth Meeting

JESUS CHRIST THE SERVANT

Question: The bible says that Jesus led a perfect sinless life. How did he do it?

Question: Since Jesus did not follow his own way (act out of his selfish desire), can you see how he escaped from sin?

Jesus did not follow his own will, but freely chose the will of God (Perfect love expressed).
Luke 4:1-13 (Deut 6:5)
John 4:34, 5:30, 6:38, 14:10, 14:31
Matthew 20:25-28
Luke 22:42


This is how John the apostle describes Jesus. John 1:14-18

Question: What do you think John meant by “full of grace and truth.” And how about “of His fullness we have received, and grace upon grace”.

Question: Does this sound like the ministry of a servant? Is being a servant “God-like”? (John 14:9, Philippians 2:5-11)

The greatest in heaven is the servant of all. (Matt 20:26, Luke 22:26, John 13:5-17)

Question: Do you think that heaven will be about serving one another? How about here/now?

The Apostles identify themselves as bond servants (Romans 1:1, James 1:1, 2Pet 1:1, Jude 1:1, Rev 1:1)

Question: The Apostles were important leaders, why would they identify themselves as servants?

Question: How do you identify yourself? What is your expectation of yourself?
