lesson 11 the spirit of a slave

truly great be a servant

mind of slave


Phil 2 Christ emptied Himself. He is equal with God goes to cross, irrational, adopted the mindset of a slave. In our church life, we need to consider others more excellent than ourselves, even to our wife. We need appreciate to serve them.

Gal 3:13 through love serve one another.. Exo 21 the slave stayed to serve is love,  Love is the base of our service.

A slave is the lowest status of a human being, Jesus lived as a slave on earth, as the standard of the highest human living. In Exo 23:4 even our enemy's animal has an issue, you need to send it back, it is a spirit of a slave.

For a slave most important is to have a ear to listen to the master. Jesus as a slave of God opens His ears that He might hear as a learned one an listen to God's word. We need to use the morning time to listen to the Lord.

Heb 5:8 He learned obedience from the things he suffered.

Also the leaders in the churches must be clear about the church need ruling but not controlling. To control others means to make decisions for them  and to tell them what to do or not to do. We must hate this kind of control. No one should exercise control, because we all are under the one Lord....
