Religion & Spirituality
In today’s culture it sometimes appears that the church is on the defensive. But Jesus pointed out that He could not be overcome and that is why the church of Christ is always moving forward. The church is built on Christ’s testimony, that the Son of God is making a way for us to be with God eternally, through His atonement for our sin. On that foundation believers move forward. However, our personal agendas can get ahead of the church, just like in today’s story. So Jesus take the opportunity to teach that if any of us want to be great then we have to be last and serve. Then we can better understand the greatness of Jesus.
