TRANSCRIPT 🔗
1
00:00:05,180 --> 00:00:10,410
Jesus, our Lord, taught and lived a
life of service, and He said those
2
00:00:10,410 --> 00:00:14,219
who would be great in the kingdom
will be servants, just as He was.
3
00:00:14,420 --> 00:00:20,459
Mark 10:45: He came not to be
ministered unto, but to minister, and
4
00:00:20,459 --> 00:00:23,020
He gave Himself a ransom for many.
5
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:24,969
This is not drive-by faith.
6
00:00:25,170 --> 00:00:28,769
It’s hands-on, get-your-hands-dirty,
being-involved faith.
7
00:00:29,179 --> 00:00:33,499
The wealthy church of today in the United
States too often has the attitude of
8
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:36,040
throwing money at a problem or a need.
9
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,609
It’s the very same attitude and
problem of American society today.
10
00:00:40,939 --> 00:00:45,839
Instead of asking, “What can I do?”
the question is, “How much?” And
11
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:50,179
then one drives off to a ballgame,
a concert, or a restaurant, and
12
00:00:50,180 --> 00:00:51,959
they feel good about themselves.
13
00:00:52,230 --> 00:00:54,999
Where did our Lord ever
model such behavior?
14
00:00:55,239 --> 00:00:57,409
He could have done the
very thing, but He didn’t.
15
00:00:57,689 --> 00:01:00,409
He was involved in the lives
of people, and He taught
16
00:01:00,410 --> 00:01:02,439
involvement to His disciples.
17
00:01:02,489 --> 00:01:05,300
Want to grow your faith and
love the Lord’s church more?
18
00:01:05,529 --> 00:01:06,339
Be a servant.
19
00:01:06,409 --> 00:01:07,329
Get involved.
20
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:08,240
That’s the gospel.
