The Kingdom of God - Jesus Teaches About Pride and Humility

November 16, 2024 • David • Season 6 • Episode 15

One of the biggest values in the kingdom of God is humility, the quality of refusing to think oneself as being greater than others. In contrast is pride, where we believe ourselves to be greater than a person or group. Today we will see how Jesus repeatedly taught that if we exalt ourselves, we will be humbled, but if we humble ourselves, we will be exalted. We will also look at how Jesus taught that to be the greatest in God's kingdom, we need to have the humility of children and strive to be a servant to all as He was a servant to all, dying for us that we might be saved from the punishment of our wrongdoings.
