(Lesson 4144)(05-28-23) Matthew 20:24-28
“And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation against the two brethren. But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.”
In today’s quote, Jesus made it very clear to His apostles that there would be NO person in His church who would be positioned above the others. The weak will rise to the top and the powerful will fall to the bottom.
This lesson slaps down the erroneous contention that there should be pomp and ritual among those who worship God.
Dressing in all manner of vulgar regalia and separating a special few from the many is totally averse to the way Jesus intented His church to function. The use of essences, smoke and magic water are an abomination to the intended church.~
