New Commandment
When it comes to the story of Jesus washing the disciple’s feet, it feels like the Church has exhibited “selective hearing”!
o In today’s passage Jesus tells us why we should pay closer attention!
John 13:18-30
o In this part of our passage Jesus is demonstrating that it’s been prophesied that that He would be betrayed! (Psalm 41:9)
§ In other words, He’s NO victim! This is part of the PLAN!
John 13:31-38
o In verse 34 Jesus gives a “new commandment”, to love one another.
§ What’s so “new” about this?! Even non-religious people love their family and friends.
· This is where Jesus washing the feet of the disciples comes in.
o By washing the feet of the disciples Jesus was turning societal norms upside down!
§ You must never think you are too good or too important to do anything, as a Christian.
· THAT’S NEW!
§ Living like that will not only cause the world to sit up and take notice, it will cause God to, too!
