00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:17.800
 Good morning everyone, nice to see you today.

00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:23.980
 And please turn in your Bibles to John's Gospel, chapter 13.

00:00:26.179 --> 00:00:28.700
 John's Gospel, chapter 13.

00:00:30.940 --> 00:00:35.799
 So if you've been with us over the last little while, you'll know that we were looking at

00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:41.900
 the resurrection of Jesus Christ and those who had encountered the risen Jesus and the

00:00:41.900 --> 00:00:44.359
 difference Jesus had made.

00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:52.599
 And now we're going to jump back into the middle of John's Gospel.

00:00:54.299 --> 00:01:04.479
 Chapters 13 to chapter 17 are really about 24 hours in the life of Jesus.

00:01:04.479 --> 00:01:16.459
 Chapters 1 to 12 is about three years, but chapters 13 to 17 is really about 24 hours just before

00:01:16.459 --> 00:01:19.239
 Jesus is arrested and crucified.

00:01:20.099 --> 00:01:26.399
 Jesus spends time with his disciples, teaching them and preparing them for his departure.

00:01:27.539 --> 00:01:33.119
 So over the next few weeks, we're going to be looking at that section, chapters 13 to 17,

00:01:33.119 --> 00:01:41.419
 as Jesus prepares the disciples and teaches us through his word what it means to follow him.

00:01:41.420 --> 00:01:57.840
 So we're going to read from verse 1 of chapter 13 to verse 17.

00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:01.620
 Let us hear God's word.

00:02:01.620 --> 00:02:06.100
 It was just before the Passover festival.

00:02:07.800 --> 00:02:14.740
 Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father.

00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:21.140
 Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

00:02:21.139 --> 00:02:41.699
 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power and that he had come from God and was returning to God.

00:02:41.699 --> 00:02:49.919
 So he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, wrapped a towel around his waist.

00:02:51.280 --> 00:03:00.859
 After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:05.239
 He came to Simon Peter, who said to him,

00:03:05.240 --> 00:03:10.400
 Lord, are you going to wash my feet?

00:03:11.780 --> 00:03:13.080
 Jesus replied,

00:03:13.640 --> 00:03:20.840
 You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.

00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:26.740
 No, said Peter, you shall never wash my feet.

00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:29.280
 Jesus answered,

00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:34.740
 Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.

00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:39.460
 Then, Lord, Simon Peter replied,

00:03:39.819 --> 00:03:43.500
 Not just my feet, but my hands and my head as well.

00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:46.340
 Jesus answered,

00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:50.000
 Those who have had a bath need only to wash their feet.

00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:51.860
 Their whole body is clean,

00:03:52.259 --> 00:03:54.099
 and you are clean,

00:03:55.520 --> 00:03:57.800
 though not every one of you.

00:03:57.800 --> 00:04:01.120
 For he knew who was going to betray him,

00:04:01.760 --> 00:04:03.340
 and that was why he said,

00:04:04.180 --> 00:04:06.180
 Not everyone was clean.

00:04:07.480 --> 00:04:09.380
 When he had finished washing their feet,

00:04:09.480 --> 00:04:12.200
 he put on his clothes and returned to his place.

00:04:13.480 --> 00:04:15.880
 Do you understand what I have done for you?

00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:17.360
 He asked them.

00:04:18.379 --> 00:04:22.160
 You call me teacher and Lord,

00:04:23.060 --> 00:04:24.340
 and rightly so,

00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:25.620
 for that is what I am.

00:04:25.620 --> 00:04:28.519
 Now that I, your Lord and teacher,

00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:29.920
 have washed your feet,

00:04:30.780 --> 00:04:33.079
 you should wash one another's feet.

00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:35.840
 I have set you an example

00:04:35.840 --> 00:04:39.519
 that you should do as I have done for you.

00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:42.660
 Very truly I tell you,

00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:45.660
 no servant is greater than his master,

00:04:46.620 --> 00:04:49.720
 nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.

00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:52.940
 Now that you know these things,

00:04:53.540 --> 00:04:57.360
 you will be blessed if you do them.

00:04:58.860 --> 00:05:02.940
 Well, let's pray as we ask for God's help.

00:05:06.500 --> 00:05:07.440
 Again, Father,

00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:12.900
 we say thank you for this word that we have read.

00:05:12.899 --> 00:05:16.879
 A word written years ago,

00:05:18.699 --> 00:05:20.979
 preserved and kept for us today,

00:05:21.620 --> 00:05:24.759
 that we might learn what it is

00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:28.060
 to be followers of the Lord Jesus,

00:05:29.239 --> 00:05:30.579
 the King of Kings.

00:05:30.579 --> 00:05:34.259
 I pray that as we hear your word,

00:05:34.379 --> 00:05:35.719
 you would change us

00:05:35.719 --> 00:05:37.659
 and mold us

00:05:37.659 --> 00:05:40.240
 to be servant-hearted,

00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:43.019
 loving others

00:05:43.019 --> 00:05:46.240
 as you loved us.

00:05:47.500 --> 00:05:49.419
 May you do that work in us

00:05:49.419 --> 00:05:50.639
 for our good.

00:05:51.539 --> 00:05:53.459
 We pray in Jesus' name.

00:05:54.299 --> 00:05:54.680
 Amen.

00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:54.839
 Amen.

00:05:54.839 --> 00:06:00.679
 Have you washed your hands?

00:06:01.419 --> 00:06:04.339
 I can still hear my mother say it.

00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:05.619
 It was a very simple rule

00:06:05.619 --> 00:06:06.859
 that we had in our house.

00:06:07.279 --> 00:06:08.919
 Before sitting down for dinner,

00:06:09.620 --> 00:06:12.120
 you had to wash your hands.

00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:14.339
 The problem was,

00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:16.779
 my mother's standard of cleanliness

00:06:16.779 --> 00:06:18.959
 was a lot different to mine.

00:06:19.859 --> 00:06:21.859
 Sticking your hands under a running tap

00:06:21.859 --> 00:06:23.259
 for less than a second

00:06:23.259 --> 00:06:24.779
 was not enough.

00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:27.399
 I would be sent back to the bathroom,

00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:29.899
 use soap and water,

00:06:30.579 --> 00:06:31.919
 and dry your hands.

00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:34.739
 Now having dirty hands

00:06:34.739 --> 00:06:36.759
 not only meant no dinner,

00:06:37.579 --> 00:06:38.699
 it also meant

00:06:38.699 --> 00:06:41.299
 I couldn't sit at the table

00:06:41.299 --> 00:06:42.979
 with my family.

00:06:43.939 --> 00:06:47.099
 My hands needed to be cleaned first.

00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:49.719
 Well in our text,

00:06:50.419 --> 00:06:51.459
 Jesus is washing,

00:06:52.359 --> 00:06:53.639
 not his hands,

00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:55.360
 but he's cleaning

00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:58.060
 his disciples' feet.

00:06:59.259 --> 00:07:00.500
 But this isn't just

00:07:00.500 --> 00:07:01.759
 a physical washing

00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:03.000
 that is taking place.

00:07:03.379 --> 00:07:04.939
 It's a much deeper

00:07:04.939 --> 00:07:06.560
 and greater washing

00:07:06.560 --> 00:07:09.459
 that we all need.

00:07:10.199 --> 00:07:11.240
 You might have picked it up

00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:11.819
 as we read.

00:07:11.919 --> 00:07:13.219
 Look at the end of verse 8.

00:07:13.220 --> 00:07:16.400
 Jesus said,

00:07:16.400 --> 00:07:18.620
 unless I wash you,

00:07:19.840 --> 00:07:21.520
 you have no part

00:07:21.520 --> 00:07:22.840
 with me.

00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:24.500
 You see,

00:07:24.620 --> 00:07:25.800
 when we are washed

00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:27.380
 by Jesus,

00:07:28.500 --> 00:07:29.400
 we can enter

00:07:29.400 --> 00:07:30.960
 into the full fellowship

00:07:30.960 --> 00:07:31.580
 of God

00:07:31.580 --> 00:07:33.180
 as Jesus

00:07:33.180 --> 00:07:34.680
 cleans us

00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:36.920
 so we can enjoy

00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:37.980
 that relationship

00:07:37.980 --> 00:07:39.139
 with the Father

00:07:39.139 --> 00:07:41.480
 and the Son.

00:07:43.300 --> 00:07:44.699
 So how can we be

00:07:44.699 --> 00:07:46.459
 made clean today

00:07:46.459 --> 00:07:48.800
 and what difference

00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:50.660
 will that washing

00:07:50.660 --> 00:07:52.699
 make to our life?

00:07:52.699 --> 00:07:55.300
 well first

00:07:55.300 --> 00:07:56.240
 notice

00:07:56.240 --> 00:07:58.180
 that this washing

00:07:58.180 --> 00:07:59.439
 is an act

00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:00.819
 of love.

00:08:01.779 --> 00:08:02.479
 Do you see it there

00:08:02.479 --> 00:08:03.579
 at the end of verse 1?

00:08:05.300 --> 00:08:06.379
 Having loved

00:08:06.379 --> 00:08:07.039
 his own

00:08:07.039 --> 00:08:08.620
 who were in the world,

00:08:09.500 --> 00:08:10.839
 he loved them

00:08:10.839 --> 00:08:12.519
 to the end.

00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:15.079
 Jesus loved

00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:16.240
 his disciples.

00:08:16.659 --> 00:08:17.300
 He had spent

00:08:17.300 --> 00:08:18.539
 the last three years

00:08:18.539 --> 00:08:18.959
 with them.

00:08:19.279 --> 00:08:20.279
 He cared for them

00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:20.799
 deeply,

00:08:21.199 --> 00:08:22.199
 but now he would

00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:22.739
 show them

00:08:22.739 --> 00:08:24.239
 just how much

00:08:24.239 --> 00:08:25.659
 he loved them.

00:08:26.359 --> 00:08:27.179
 He would love

00:08:27.179 --> 00:08:28.299
 them to the

00:08:28.299 --> 00:08:29.719
 end.

00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:32.500
 A young man

00:08:32.500 --> 00:08:33.220
 might declare

00:08:33.220 --> 00:08:33.899
 his love

00:08:33.899 --> 00:08:34.539
 for a woman,

00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:35.539
 but to show

00:08:35.539 --> 00:08:36.360
 the extent

00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:37.120
 of his love,

00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:38.579
 he goes and buys

00:08:38.579 --> 00:08:39.860
 an engagement ring.

00:08:39.959 --> 00:08:40.639
 We could say

00:08:40.639 --> 00:08:41.860
 he loves her

00:08:41.860 --> 00:08:43.480
 to the end.

00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:46.279
 A husband

00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:47.039
 may love

00:08:47.039 --> 00:08:47.779
 his wife,

00:08:48.419 --> 00:08:49.199
 but to show

00:08:49.199 --> 00:08:50.000
 the depth

00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:50.860
 of his love,

00:08:51.240 --> 00:08:51.860
 he cares

00:08:51.860 --> 00:08:52.360
 for her

00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:53.460
 all the way

00:08:53.460 --> 00:08:54.220
 through her

00:08:54.220 --> 00:08:54.980
 illness.

00:08:56.440 --> 00:08:57.460
 We could say

00:08:57.460 --> 00:08:58.440
 he loved her

00:08:58.440 --> 00:09:00.259
 to the end.

00:09:01.740 --> 00:09:02.519
 Well Jesus

00:09:02.519 --> 00:09:03.159
 is saying

00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:03.820
 to us

00:09:03.820 --> 00:09:04.759
 and to his

00:09:04.759 --> 00:09:05.320
 disciples,

00:09:05.779 --> 00:09:07.200
 I love you.

00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:09.139
 And to demonstrate

00:09:09.139 --> 00:09:10.240
 the extent

00:09:10.240 --> 00:09:10.899
 of that love,

00:09:11.259 --> 00:09:11.919
 to reveal

00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:12.940
 the depth

00:09:12.940 --> 00:09:14.240
 of that love.

00:09:15.299 --> 00:09:16.220
 End of verse 1,

00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:17.419
 he loved them

00:09:17.419 --> 00:09:19.639
 to the end.

00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:22.199
 As we will see

00:09:22.199 --> 00:09:23.779
 in just a moment,

00:09:25.019 --> 00:09:26.139
 Jesus showed

00:09:26.139 --> 00:09:27.039
 his love

00:09:27.039 --> 00:09:28.039
 for us

00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:29.799
 by becoming

00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:30.599
 a servant

00:09:30.599 --> 00:09:32.439
 to wash us

00:09:32.439 --> 00:09:33.120
 clean

00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:34.860
 and to give us

00:09:34.860 --> 00:09:35.500
 an example

00:09:35.500 --> 00:09:36.679
 to follow.

00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:38.939
 He showed us

00:09:38.939 --> 00:09:40.360
 his love

00:09:40.360 --> 00:09:42.019
 by becoming

00:09:42.019 --> 00:09:43.059
 a servant

00:09:43.059 --> 00:09:43.339
 servant,

00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:45.279
 to wash us

00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:45.879
 clean

00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:48.500
 so that we

00:09:48.500 --> 00:09:49.759
 might become

00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:50.519
 servants

00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:51.879
 to one another.

00:09:51.879 --> 00:09:53.699
 He loved us

00:09:53.699 --> 00:09:55.339
 to the very

00:09:55.339 --> 00:09:56.199
 end.

00:09:57.199 --> 00:09:57.919
 So let's

00:09:57.919 --> 00:09:58.339
 together

00:09:58.339 --> 00:09:58.919
 unpack

00:09:58.919 --> 00:10:00.599
 this act

00:10:00.599 --> 00:10:01.919
 of love.

00:10:03.199 --> 00:10:03.959
 First,

00:10:04.139 --> 00:10:05.079
 Jesus loves

00:10:05.079 --> 00:10:05.639
 us

00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:07.459
 by becoming

00:10:07.459 --> 00:10:08.759
 a servant.

00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:10.740
 He loves

00:10:10.740 --> 00:10:11.000
 us

00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:11.679
 by becoming

00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:12.200
 a servant.

00:10:12.679 --> 00:10:13.080
 Look at

00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:13.720
 verse 4

00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:14.279
 with me.

00:10:15.299 --> 00:10:15.879
 So this is

00:10:15.879 --> 00:10:16.399
 during the

00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:16.700
 meal.

00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:18.319
 Jesus got

00:10:18.319 --> 00:10:19.039
 up from

00:10:19.039 --> 00:10:19.559
 the meal,

00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:20.679
 took off

00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:21.360
 his outer

00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:22.039
 clothing

00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:23.439
 and wrapped

00:10:23.439 --> 00:10:23.980
 a towel

00:10:23.980 --> 00:10:24.620
 around his

00:10:24.620 --> 00:10:25.200
 waist.

00:10:26.539 --> 00:10:27.240
 After that,

00:10:27.340 --> 00:10:27.779
 he poured

00:10:27.779 --> 00:10:28.559
 water into

00:10:28.559 --> 00:10:29.259
 a basin

00:10:29.259 --> 00:10:30.939
 and began

00:10:30.939 --> 00:10:31.740
 to wash

00:10:31.740 --> 00:10:32.639
 his disciples'

00:10:32.899 --> 00:10:33.220
 feet,

00:10:34.500 --> 00:10:35.100
 drying them

00:10:35.100 --> 00:10:35.740
 with the towel

00:10:35.740 --> 00:10:36.139
 that was

00:10:36.139 --> 00:10:37.159
 wrapped around

00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:37.559
 him.

00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:39.960
 Now the

00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:40.700
 scene here

00:10:40.700 --> 00:10:41.539
 is both

00:10:41.539 --> 00:10:42.360
 shocking

00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:43.819
 and

00:10:43.819 --> 00:10:44.639
 embarrassing.

00:10:45.779 --> 00:10:46.379
 In our

00:10:46.379 --> 00:10:46.919
 culture,

00:10:47.620 --> 00:10:48.120
 as I'm

00:10:48.120 --> 00:10:48.679
 sure it is

00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:49.039
 when you

00:10:49.039 --> 00:10:49.639
 go home,

00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:50.220
 we'll sit

00:10:50.220 --> 00:10:50.759
 round a

00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:51.240
 table

00:10:51.240 --> 00:10:52.259
 to eat.

00:10:53.179 --> 00:10:53.580
 Well in

00:10:53.580 --> 00:10:54.000
 ancient

00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:54.500
 cultures,

00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:55.139
 people would

00:10:55.139 --> 00:10:56.100
 eat by

00:10:56.100 --> 00:10:56.759
 lying on

00:10:56.759 --> 00:10:57.200
 the floor.

00:10:57.600 --> 00:10:58.000
 So if you

00:10:58.000 --> 00:10:58.580
 could imagine

00:10:58.580 --> 00:10:58.980
 in your

00:10:58.980 --> 00:10:59.519
 house where

00:10:59.519 --> 00:10:59.860
 you have

00:10:59.860 --> 00:11:00.439
 your dining

00:11:00.439 --> 00:11:01.179
 table or

00:11:01.179 --> 00:11:01.580
 where you

00:11:01.580 --> 00:11:01.860
 eat,

00:11:02.340 --> 00:11:03.120
 instead there

00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:03.439
 is a

00:11:03.439 --> 00:11:04.080
 great big

00:11:04.080 --> 00:11:04.879
 carpet in

00:11:04.879 --> 00:11:05.259
 the middle

00:11:05.259 --> 00:11:05.639
 of it

00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:06.639
 with food

00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:07.279
 and dishes.

00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:09.159
 And then

00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:09.899
 each person

00:11:09.899 --> 00:11:10.539
 would lie

00:11:10.539 --> 00:11:11.019
 with their

00:11:11.019 --> 00:11:12.539
 head towards

00:11:12.539 --> 00:11:13.459
 the rug,

00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:14.480
 in towards

00:11:14.480 --> 00:11:14.899
 where the

00:11:14.899 --> 00:11:15.439
 food was,

00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:16.159
 with their

00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:17.480
 feet pointing

00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:18.179
 away from

00:11:18.179 --> 00:11:18.620
 the rug.

00:11:18.860 --> 00:11:19.379
 It was a

00:11:19.379 --> 00:11:20.120
 perfect way

00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:21.079
 to eat,

00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:22.339
 relax and

00:11:22.339 --> 00:11:22.939
 chat with

00:11:22.939 --> 00:11:23.759
 your head

00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:24.559
 on your

00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:24.939
 arm,

00:11:25.059 --> 00:11:25.620
 leaning in,

00:11:25.740 --> 00:11:26.399
 eating away

00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:27.079
 and how

00:11:27.079 --> 00:11:27.259
 are you

00:11:27.259 --> 00:11:27.480
 doing,

00:11:27.639 --> 00:11:27.959
 how was

00:11:27.959 --> 00:11:28.319
 the day

00:11:28.319 --> 00:11:28.779
 and so

00:11:28.779 --> 00:11:29.159
 on and

00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:29.819
 so forth.

00:11:31.019 --> 00:11:31.600
 But let's

00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:32.000
 remember,

00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:32.740
 people didn't

00:11:32.740 --> 00:11:33.839
 wear socks

00:11:33.839 --> 00:11:34.480
 or shoes

00:11:34.480 --> 00:11:35.000
 either.

00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:36.440
 they wore

00:11:36.440 --> 00:11:37.340
 sandals.

00:11:38.340 --> 00:11:38.879
 That meant

00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:39.440
 your feet

00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:40.299
 got sweaty

00:11:40.299 --> 00:11:40.980
 and dirty

00:11:40.980 --> 00:11:41.559
 in a very

00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:42.639
 hot climate.

00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:44.759
 Bits of

00:11:44.759 --> 00:11:45.539
 sheep and

00:11:45.539 --> 00:11:45.960
 goats'

00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:46.720
 poo got

00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:47.620
 stuck between

00:11:47.620 --> 00:11:48.500
 your toes.

00:11:49.460 --> 00:11:49.820
 They were

00:11:49.820 --> 00:11:51.039
 smelly and

00:11:51.039 --> 00:11:52.539
 dirty feet.

00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:55.220
 So when

00:11:55.220 --> 00:11:55.820
 you took up

00:11:55.820 --> 00:11:56.480
 your place

00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:57.139
 for dinner

00:11:57.139 --> 00:11:57.919
 around the

00:11:57.919 --> 00:11:58.399
 rug and

00:11:58.399 --> 00:11:58.820
 to eat

00:11:58.820 --> 00:11:59.379
 the food,

00:11:59.840 --> 00:12:00.440
 the servant

00:12:00.440 --> 00:12:00.919
 of the

00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:02.179
 house would

00:12:02.179 --> 00:12:03.039
 come around

00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:04.480
 and wash

00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:05.719
 everybody's

00:12:05.719 --> 00:12:06.379
 feet.

00:12:07.299 --> 00:12:07.719
 We don't

00:12:07.719 --> 00:12:08.379
 want bad

00:12:08.379 --> 00:12:10.159
 smells at

00:12:10.159 --> 00:12:10.559
 the dinner

00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:11.539
 table or

00:12:11.539 --> 00:12:12.360
 dinner rug.

00:12:14.759 --> 00:12:15.399
 Well,

00:12:15.500 --> 00:12:16.059
 just as

00:12:16.059 --> 00:12:17.719
 Jesus was

00:12:17.719 --> 00:12:18.519
 about to

00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:19.559
 wash his

00:12:19.559 --> 00:12:20.019
 feet,

00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:20.679
 wash the

00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:21.179
 disciples'

00:12:21.439 --> 00:12:21.719
 feet,

00:12:22.319 --> 00:12:22.839
 you could

00:12:22.839 --> 00:12:24.419
 imagine what

00:12:24.419 --> 00:12:25.219
 the disciples

00:12:25.219 --> 00:12:25.899
 must have

00:12:25.899 --> 00:12:26.299
 thought.

00:12:26.819 --> 00:12:27.899
 This is a

00:12:27.899 --> 00:12:28.519
 servant's

00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:28.919
 job.

00:12:29.539 --> 00:12:30.000
 This is

00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:30.719
 reserved for

00:12:30.719 --> 00:12:31.159
 the lowest

00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:31.839
 of the low.

00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:32.720
 it must

00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:33.060
 have been

00:12:33.060 --> 00:12:33.480
 that there

00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:33.899
 was no

00:12:33.899 --> 00:12:34.660
 servant in

00:12:34.660 --> 00:12:35.120
 attendance

00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:35.960
 that day

00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:36.780
 because,

00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:37.340
 well,

00:12:37.399 --> 00:12:38.120
 the disciples

00:12:38.120 --> 00:12:38.840
 couldn't be

00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:39.420
 bothered to

00:12:39.420 --> 00:12:39.899
 wash each

00:12:39.899 --> 00:12:40.280
 other's

00:12:40.280 --> 00:12:40.639
 feet.

00:12:42.259 --> 00:12:43.180
 But here

00:12:43.180 --> 00:12:44.280
 Jesus does.

00:12:45.639 --> 00:12:46.399
 Jesus gets

00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:47.440
 himself ready,

00:12:48.560 --> 00:12:49.139
 pours the

00:12:49.139 --> 00:12:49.600
 bowl of

00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:50.080
 water,

00:12:51.120 --> 00:12:51.879
 and began

00:12:51.879 --> 00:12:52.800
 to wash

00:12:52.800 --> 00:12:54.139
 their feet.

00:12:55.560 --> 00:12:56.360
 But the

00:12:56.360 --> 00:12:57.060
 real shock

00:12:57.060 --> 00:12:57.820
 comes when

00:12:57.820 --> 00:12:58.860
 we realise

00:12:58.860 --> 00:13:00.300
 who Jesus

00:13:00.299 --> 00:13:01.159
 is.

00:13:02.059 --> 00:13:02.620
 Look back

00:13:02.620 --> 00:13:03.039
 in verse

00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:03.479
 three.

00:13:05.579 --> 00:13:06.639
 Jesus knew

00:13:06.639 --> 00:13:07.899
 that the

00:13:07.899 --> 00:13:08.579
 father had

00:13:08.579 --> 00:13:09.279
 put all

00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:10.339
 things under

00:13:10.339 --> 00:13:11.120
 his power

00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:12.500
 and that he

00:13:12.500 --> 00:13:13.019
 had come

00:13:13.019 --> 00:13:14.019
 from God

00:13:14.019 --> 00:13:14.539
 and was

00:13:14.539 --> 00:13:15.399
 returning to

00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:15.839
 God.

00:13:16.859 --> 00:13:17.479
 John is

00:13:17.479 --> 00:13:19.099
 telling us

00:13:19.099 --> 00:13:20.879
 that this

00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:21.359
 is not

00:13:21.359 --> 00:13:22.059
 just a

00:13:22.059 --> 00:13:22.740
 mere human

00:13:22.740 --> 00:13:23.299
 being.

00:13:24.139 --> 00:13:24.819
 This is

00:13:24.819 --> 00:13:25.459
 God in

00:13:25.459 --> 00:13:26.179
 the flesh

00:13:26.179 --> 00:13:27.919
 with absolute

00:13:27.919 --> 00:13:29.379
 power over

00:13:29.379 --> 00:13:30.120
 all things.

00:13:30.480 --> 00:13:30.960
 The power

00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:31.840
 that created

00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:32.539
 the universe

00:13:32.539 --> 00:13:33.899
 and sustains

00:13:33.899 --> 00:13:34.600
 and provides

00:13:34.600 --> 00:13:35.100
 all things.

00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:36.399
 That power

00:13:36.399 --> 00:13:37.919
 was with

00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:38.419
 Jesus.

00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:40.659
 He's telling

00:13:40.659 --> 00:13:41.720
 us God

00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:42.539
 is present

00:13:42.539 --> 00:13:44.759
 with Jesus.

00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:46.919
 Now with

00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:47.320
 that in

00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:47.799
 mind,

00:13:48.679 --> 00:13:49.340
 how would

00:13:49.340 --> 00:13:50.460
 you finish

00:13:50.460 --> 00:13:51.460
 verse

00:13:51.460 --> 00:13:51.860
 three?

00:13:52.659 --> 00:13:53.259
 Let's read

00:13:53.259 --> 00:13:53.820
 verse three

00:13:53.820 --> 00:13:54.200
 again.

00:13:54.659 --> 00:13:55.700
 Jesus knew

00:13:55.700 --> 00:13:56.620
 that the

00:13:56.620 --> 00:13:57.179
 father had

00:13:57.179 --> 00:13:57.740
 put all

00:13:57.740 --> 00:13:58.480
 things under

00:13:58.480 --> 00:13:59.360
 his power

00:13:59.360 --> 00:14:00.680
 and that

00:14:00.680 --> 00:14:00.980
 he had

00:14:00.980 --> 00:14:01.779
 come from

00:14:01.779 --> 00:14:02.259
 God

00:14:02.259 --> 00:14:02.940
 and was

00:14:02.940 --> 00:14:03.420
 returning

00:14:03.420 --> 00:14:04.100
 to God.

00:14:04.639 --> 00:14:06.279
 So he

00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:07.000
 demanded

00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:08.399
 that he be

00:14:08.399 --> 00:14:09.060
 treated with

00:14:09.060 --> 00:14:09.620
 honour and

00:14:09.620 --> 00:14:10.180
 respect.

00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:14.120
 So he

00:14:14.120 --> 00:14:14.920
 ensured that

00:14:14.920 --> 00:14:15.360
 he was

00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:15.840
 served

00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:16.680
 first.

00:14:18.420 --> 00:14:18.920
 No.

00:14:20.139 --> 00:14:20.639
 Verse

00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:21.019
 four.

00:14:22.100 --> 00:14:22.740
 He got

00:14:22.740 --> 00:14:23.180
 up from

00:14:23.180 --> 00:14:23.700
 the meal,

00:14:24.580 --> 00:14:24.980
 took off

00:14:24.980 --> 00:14:25.440
 his outer

00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:26.060
 clothing,

00:14:26.059 --> 00:14:27.619
 and wrapped

00:14:27.619 --> 00:14:28.099
 a towel

00:14:28.099 --> 00:14:28.679
 around his

00:14:28.679 --> 00:14:30.479
 waist and

00:14:30.479 --> 00:14:31.199
 began to

00:14:31.199 --> 00:14:33.099
 wash feet.

00:14:36.139 --> 00:14:36.539
 Do you

00:14:36.539 --> 00:14:37.039
 see what's

00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:37.579
 going on

00:14:37.579 --> 00:14:37.919
 here?

00:14:39.179 --> 00:14:40.479
 God in

00:14:40.479 --> 00:14:41.239
 the person

00:14:41.239 --> 00:14:42.500
 of Jesus

00:14:42.500 --> 00:14:44.699
 began to

00:14:44.699 --> 00:14:46.039
 wash dirty,

00:14:47.119 --> 00:14:47.759
 pooey,

00:14:48.599 --> 00:14:50.500
 smelly feet.

00:14:50.500 --> 00:14:50.539
 feet.

00:14:53.100 --> 00:14:54.019
 Imagine our

00:14:54.019 --> 00:14:54.620
 president,

00:14:54.799 --> 00:14:55.159
 Catherine

00:14:55.159 --> 00:14:55.840
 Connolly,

00:14:56.580 --> 00:14:57.259
 hosting a

00:14:57.259 --> 00:14:58.039
 banquet for

00:14:58.039 --> 00:14:58.580
 distinguished

00:14:58.580 --> 00:14:59.399
 guests.

00:15:00.019 --> 00:15:00.759
 Just before

00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:01.620
 the food is

00:15:01.620 --> 00:15:02.139
 served, the

00:15:02.139 --> 00:15:03.360
 president runs

00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:03.919
 into the

00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:04.980
 kitchen, puts

00:15:04.980 --> 00:15:05.659
 on an apron

00:15:05.659 --> 00:15:06.320
 and a nice

00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:06.779
 pair of

00:15:06.779 --> 00:15:07.080
 yellow

00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:07.759
 marigold

00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:09.100
 gloves, and

00:15:09.100 --> 00:15:09.779
 begins to

00:15:09.779 --> 00:15:10.659
 serve food

00:15:10.659 --> 00:15:11.539
 and wash

00:15:11.539 --> 00:15:12.019
 up and

00:15:12.019 --> 00:15:12.779
 come out

00:15:12.779 --> 00:15:13.220
 with other

00:15:13.220 --> 00:15:14.240
 food, sweating

00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:14.620
 in her

00:15:14.620 --> 00:15:15.240
 forehead and

00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:16.039
 placing food

00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:16.759
 before them.

00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:19.080
 It'd be

00:15:19.080 --> 00:15:19.559
 shocking.

00:15:20.500 --> 00:15:21.379
 Imagine the

00:15:21.379 --> 00:15:22.240
 headlines around

00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:22.879
 the world.

00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:24.799
 Presidents

00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:26.179
 are served.

00:15:27.240 --> 00:15:28.059
 They don't

00:15:28.059 --> 00:15:29.120
 do the

00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:29.620
 serving.

00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:31.960
 Well, as we

00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:32.799
 peer into

00:15:32.799 --> 00:15:33.659
 this room, as

00:15:33.659 --> 00:15:35.039
 we see this

00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:35.919
 meal taking

00:15:35.919 --> 00:15:37.940
 place, as

00:15:37.940 --> 00:15:38.600
 we see

00:15:38.600 --> 00:15:40.019
 Jesus, we

00:15:40.019 --> 00:15:41.500
 see God,

00:15:42.440 --> 00:15:43.259
 the creator

00:15:43.259 --> 00:15:43.759
 of the

00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:45.100
 universe, from

00:15:45.100 --> 00:15:46.220
 all time, from

00:15:46.220 --> 00:15:47.019
 beginning to

00:15:47.019 --> 00:15:48.820
 end, Lord

00:15:48.820 --> 00:15:49.500
 of all,

00:15:49.500 --> 00:15:51.480
 washing dirty,

00:15:52.019 --> 00:15:53.500
 smelly feet.

00:15:55.500 --> 00:15:56.379
 Is that

00:15:56.379 --> 00:15:57.159
 your God?

00:15:58.899 --> 00:15:59.980
 We see

00:15:59.980 --> 00:16:00.720
 Jesus

00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:02.220
 saying, I

00:16:02.220 --> 00:16:02.919
 have come to

00:16:02.919 --> 00:16:03.799
 serve you,

00:16:04.340 --> 00:16:05.200
 not to

00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:05.919
 demand of

00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:06.200
 you.

00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:07.799
 I have

00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:08.320
 come to

00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:09.039
 give to

00:16:09.039 --> 00:16:10.559
 you, and

00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:11.039
 not to

00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:11.700
 crush you.

00:16:12.940 --> 00:16:13.379
 In fact,

00:16:13.500 --> 00:16:14.360
 Jesus came

00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:15.240
 to wash

00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:17.539
 us, and

00:16:17.539 --> 00:16:18.700
 clean us.

00:16:19.500 --> 00:16:21.500
 so Jesus

00:16:21.500 --> 00:16:23.220
 loves us by

00:16:23.220 --> 00:16:24.019
 becoming a

00:16:24.019 --> 00:16:26.299
 servant, and

00:16:26.299 --> 00:16:27.019
 second, Jesus

00:16:27.019 --> 00:16:29.019
 loves us by

00:16:29.019 --> 00:16:29.840
 washing us

00:16:29.840 --> 00:16:30.419
 clean.

00:16:31.700 --> 00:16:32.740
 Let's pick up

00:16:32.740 --> 00:16:33.519
 the conversation

00:16:33.519 --> 00:16:34.059
 in verse

00:16:34.059 --> 00:16:34.519
 six.

00:16:34.519 --> 00:16:38.879
 he came to

00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:39.639
 Simon Peter,

00:16:39.639 --> 00:16:40.340
 who said to

00:16:40.340 --> 00:16:41.779
 him, Lord,

00:16:41.899 --> 00:16:42.720
 are you

00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:43.840
 going to

00:16:43.840 --> 00:16:45.000
 wash my

00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:45.559
 feet?

00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:48.480
 Servants

00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:49.319
 do that.

00:16:50.139 --> 00:16:51.879
 You can't

00:16:51.879 --> 00:16:52.600
 do that.

00:16:54.279 --> 00:16:54.919
 Verse

00:16:54.919 --> 00:16:55.319
 seven,

00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:56.539
 Jesus

00:16:56.539 --> 00:16:57.319
 replied, you

00:16:57.319 --> 00:16:57.799
 do not

00:16:57.799 --> 00:16:58.919
 realize now

00:16:58.919 --> 00:16:59.639
 what I am

00:16:59.639 --> 00:17:01.419
 doing, but

00:17:01.419 --> 00:17:02.679
 later you

00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:02.959
 will

00:17:02.959 --> 00:17:03.659
 understand.

00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:05.980
 No, said

00:17:05.980 --> 00:17:06.980
 Peter, you

00:17:06.980 --> 00:17:07.619
 shall never

00:17:07.619 --> 00:17:08.579
 wash my

00:17:08.579 --> 00:17:09.119
 feet.

00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:11.019
 Jesus

00:17:11.019 --> 00:17:11.940
 answered, unless

00:17:11.940 --> 00:17:12.740
 I wash

00:17:12.740 --> 00:17:14.379
 you, you

00:17:14.379 --> 00:17:14.960
 have no

00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:16.579
 part with

00:17:16.579 --> 00:17:16.879
 me.

00:17:18.259 --> 00:17:18.679
 You see,

00:17:18.779 --> 00:17:19.480
 clearly there

00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:19.980
 is something

00:17:19.980 --> 00:17:21.139
 else going

00:17:21.139 --> 00:17:21.480
 on.

00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:22.139
 It's not

00:17:22.139 --> 00:17:22.899
 just about

00:17:22.899 --> 00:17:23.539
 the physical

00:17:23.539 --> 00:17:24.259
 washing of

00:17:24.259 --> 00:17:24.539
 feet.

00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:25.720
 This is a

00:17:25.720 --> 00:17:26.700
 sign of a

00:17:26.700 --> 00:17:27.819
 deeper and

00:17:27.819 --> 00:17:28.339
 greater

00:17:28.339 --> 00:17:29.779
 cleaning that

00:17:29.779 --> 00:17:30.419
 must take

00:17:30.420 --> 00:17:30.980
 place.

00:17:32.180 --> 00:17:32.880
 So what

00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:33.340
 does this

00:17:33.340 --> 00:17:34.080
 foot washing

00:17:34.080 --> 00:17:35.220
 signify?

00:17:35.460 --> 00:17:36.060
 What does

00:17:36.060 --> 00:17:36.440
 it all

00:17:36.440 --> 00:17:36.880
 mean?

00:17:38.920 --> 00:17:39.560
 Well, the

00:17:39.560 --> 00:17:40.580
 prophets spoke

00:17:40.580 --> 00:17:41.320
 about it.

00:17:42.220 --> 00:17:42.800
 To help

00:17:42.800 --> 00:17:43.300
 us, let's

00:17:43.300 --> 00:17:43.940
 go back to

00:17:43.940 --> 00:17:44.700
 Ezekiel

00:17:44.700 --> 00:17:46.640
 chapter 36.

00:17:48.420 --> 00:17:49.019
 Ezekiel

00:17:49.019 --> 00:17:50.120
 chapter 36.

00:17:50.360 --> 00:17:50.720
 So keep

00:17:50.720 --> 00:17:51.140
 your finger

00:17:51.140 --> 00:17:51.600
 in John

00:17:51.600 --> 00:17:53.580
 13 and

00:17:53.580 --> 00:17:54.120
 go back

00:17:54.120 --> 00:17:55.060
 to Ezekiel

00:17:55.060 --> 00:17:56.960
 chapter 36.

00:17:56.960 --> 00:17:59.200
 If somebody

00:17:59.200 --> 00:17:59.880
 has a page

00:17:59.880 --> 00:18:00.440
 number, that

00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:01.019
 would help.

00:18:10.360 --> 00:18:12.140
 8, 6, 7.

00:18:16.140 --> 00:18:16.779
 No?

00:18:21.220 --> 00:18:21.860
 Okay.

00:18:21.859 --> 00:18:23.319
 Ezekiel

00:18:23.319 --> 00:18:24.459
 chapter 36

00:18:24.459 --> 00:18:25.699
 and we'll

00:18:25.699 --> 00:18:26.099
 be looking

00:18:26.099 --> 00:18:26.659
 at verse

00:18:26.659 --> 00:18:27.659
 24.

00:18:28.879 --> 00:18:29.639
 Now, just

00:18:29.639 --> 00:18:30.539
 some context

00:18:30.539 --> 00:18:31.000
 here.

00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:32.740
 God's people

00:18:32.740 --> 00:18:33.639
 had been warned

00:18:33.639 --> 00:18:34.500
 that if they

00:18:34.500 --> 00:18:35.359
 continued to

00:18:35.359 --> 00:18:35.959
 turn away

00:18:35.959 --> 00:18:36.699
 from God,

00:18:37.399 --> 00:18:37.779
 they would

00:18:37.779 --> 00:18:38.359
 be taken

00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:39.659
 into exile.

00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:41.119
 And this

00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:41.819
 physical

00:18:41.819 --> 00:18:42.659
 separation,

00:18:42.859 --> 00:18:43.639
 this exile

00:18:43.639 --> 00:18:44.139
 from the

00:18:44.139 --> 00:18:44.699
 land,

00:18:45.879 --> 00:18:46.359
 mirrored

00:18:46.359 --> 00:18:47.579
 their spiritual

00:18:47.579 --> 00:18:48.439
 separation

00:18:48.439 --> 00:18:49.899
 from God.

00:18:49.900 --> 00:18:52.040
 and into

00:18:52.040 --> 00:18:52.880
 this context,

00:18:53.060 --> 00:18:53.480
 the prophet

00:18:53.480 --> 00:18:54.340
 Ezekiel

00:18:54.340 --> 00:18:55.540
 comes to

00:18:55.540 --> 00:18:56.140
 speak of

00:18:56.140 --> 00:18:56.580
 God's

00:18:56.580 --> 00:18:57.259
 promise

00:18:57.259 --> 00:18:58.620
 of renewal.

00:18:59.620 --> 00:19:00.000
 Now, look

00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:00.560
 carefully

00:19:00.560 --> 00:19:01.800
 and listen

00:19:01.800 --> 00:19:02.640
 carefully to

00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:03.600
 the language

00:19:03.600 --> 00:19:05.380
 that Ezekiel

00:19:05.380 --> 00:19:06.000
 uses.

00:19:06.259 --> 00:19:06.759
 Pick it up

00:19:06.759 --> 00:19:07.120
 in verse

00:19:07.120 --> 00:19:07.820
 24.

00:19:10.400 --> 00:19:11.340
 God says,

00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:11.860
 For I will

00:19:11.860 --> 00:19:12.680
 take you

00:19:12.680 --> 00:19:13.460
 out of the

00:19:13.460 --> 00:19:14.060
 nations

00:19:14.060 --> 00:19:15.880
 and I will

00:19:15.880 --> 00:19:16.519
 gather you

00:19:16.519 --> 00:19:17.140
 from all

00:19:17.140 --> 00:19:17.840
 the countries

00:19:17.840 --> 00:19:19.019
 and bring

00:19:19.019 --> 00:19:19.680
 you back

00:19:19.680 --> 00:19:20.460
 into your

00:19:20.460 --> 00:19:21.240
 own land.

00:19:21.380 --> 00:19:21.720
 So the

00:19:21.720 --> 00:19:22.279
 physical

00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:23.120
 separation

00:19:23.120 --> 00:19:25.360
 is now

00:19:25.360 --> 00:19:25.860
 being

00:19:25.860 --> 00:19:27.320
 reconciled

00:19:27.320 --> 00:19:27.660
 as they

00:19:27.660 --> 00:19:28.420
 come back

00:19:28.420 --> 00:19:29.480
 to God.

00:19:30.060 --> 00:19:30.940
 Verse 25,

00:19:31.480 --> 00:19:32.120
 I will

00:19:32.120 --> 00:19:32.779
 sprinkle

00:19:32.779 --> 00:19:34.220
 clean water

00:19:34.220 --> 00:19:35.039
 on you

00:19:35.039 --> 00:19:36.759
 and you

00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:37.160
 will be

00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:37.840
 clean

00:19:37.840 --> 00:19:39.360
 and I

00:19:39.360 --> 00:19:40.080
 will cleanse

00:19:40.080 --> 00:19:40.539
 you from

00:19:40.539 --> 00:19:41.299
 all your

00:19:41.299 --> 00:19:41.960
 impurities

00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:42.600
 and from

00:19:42.600 --> 00:19:43.580
 all your

00:19:43.580 --> 00:19:44.539
 idols.

00:19:45.759 --> 00:19:47.000
 Verse 28,

00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:48.940
 clean

00:19:48.940 --> 00:19:48.660
 then you

00:19:48.660 --> 00:19:49.220
 will live

00:19:49.220 --> 00:19:49.559
 in the

00:19:49.559 --> 00:19:50.180
 land I

00:19:50.180 --> 00:19:50.700
 gave to

00:19:50.700 --> 00:19:50.900
 your

00:19:50.900 --> 00:19:51.460
 ancestors

00:19:51.460 --> 00:19:52.119
 and you

00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:52.619
 will be

00:19:52.619 --> 00:19:52.980
 my

00:19:52.980 --> 00:19:53.559
 people

00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:54.799
 and I

00:19:54.799 --> 00:19:55.240
 will be

00:19:55.240 --> 00:19:55.460
 your

00:19:55.460 --> 00:19:55.880
 God.

00:19:56.380 --> 00:19:57.039
 I will

00:19:57.039 --> 00:19:58.099
 save you

00:19:58.099 --> 00:19:59.059
 from all

00:19:59.059 --> 00:19:59.539
 your

00:19:59.539 --> 00:20:01.259
 uncleanness.

00:20:04.380 --> 00:20:05.319
 You see,

00:20:05.460 --> 00:20:06.640
 this idolatry

00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:08.000
 that needs

00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:08.799
 cleaned

00:20:08.799 --> 00:20:10.819
 is all

00:20:10.819 --> 00:20:11.680
 about us

00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:12.380
 replacing

00:20:12.380 --> 00:20:13.180
 God

00:20:13.180 --> 00:20:14.320
 with

00:20:14.320 --> 00:20:14.820
 something

00:20:14.820 --> 00:20:15.360
 else

00:20:15.360 --> 00:20:15.580
 or

00:20:15.580 --> 00:20:16.080
 someone

00:20:16.080 --> 00:20:16.640
 else.

00:20:17.420 --> 00:20:17.820
 You see,

00:20:17.920 --> 00:20:18.280
 we live

00:20:18.280 --> 00:20:18.660
 as if

00:20:18.660 --> 00:20:18.960
 we're

00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:19.300
 God.

00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:19.980
 We act

00:20:19.980 --> 00:20:20.360
 as if

00:20:20.360 --> 00:20:20.620
 we're

00:20:20.620 --> 00:20:21.000
 the one

00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:21.240
 with

00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:21.780
 absolute

00:20:21.780 --> 00:20:22.420
 power.

00:20:23.100 --> 00:20:23.440
 My

00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:23.920
 life,

00:20:24.100 --> 00:20:24.280
 my

00:20:24.280 --> 00:20:24.920
 choice,

00:20:25.280 --> 00:20:25.820
 no one

00:20:25.820 --> 00:20:26.140
 is going

00:20:26.140 --> 00:20:26.560
 to tell

00:20:26.560 --> 00:20:26.860
 me

00:20:26.860 --> 00:20:27.380
 what to

00:20:27.380 --> 00:20:27.700
 do.

00:20:28.040 --> 00:20:28.760
 But all

00:20:28.760 --> 00:20:29.260
 that does

00:20:29.260 --> 00:20:30.020
 is separate

00:20:30.020 --> 00:20:30.740
 us

00:20:30.740 --> 00:20:31.560
 from

00:20:31.560 --> 00:20:32.080
 God.

00:20:32.860 --> 00:20:33.300
 We've

00:20:33.300 --> 00:20:33.640
 become

00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:34.400
 unclean,

00:20:34.520 --> 00:20:34.720
 we've

00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:35.060
 become

00:20:35.060 --> 00:20:35.560
 dirty,

00:20:35.940 --> 00:20:36.340
 and the

00:20:36.340 --> 00:20:36.860
 only way

00:20:36.860 --> 00:20:37.280
 that we

00:20:37.280 --> 00:20:37.640
 can be

00:20:37.640 --> 00:20:37.940
 brought

00:20:37.940 --> 00:20:38.280
 back

00:20:38.280 --> 00:20:38.540
 into

00:20:38.540 --> 00:20:39.040
 fellowship

00:20:39.040 --> 00:20:39.360
 with

00:20:39.360 --> 00:20:39.760
 God

00:20:39.760 --> 00:20:40.480
 is if

00:20:40.480 --> 00:20:40.980
 we are

00:20:40.980 --> 00:20:42.340
 cleansed.

00:20:42.380 --> 00:20:43.500
 which is

00:20:43.500 --> 00:20:44.000
 exactly

00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:44.640
 what God

00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:45.120
 promises

00:20:45.120 --> 00:20:45.680
 us to

00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:45.960
 do.

00:20:46.280 --> 00:20:46.620
 Look at

00:20:46.620 --> 00:20:47.220
 Ezekiel

00:20:47.220 --> 00:20:48.380
 36

00:20:48.380 --> 00:20:48.840
 verse

00:20:48.840 --> 00:20:49.640
 33.

00:20:51.080 --> 00:20:51.860
 This is

00:20:51.860 --> 00:20:52.340
 what the

00:20:52.340 --> 00:20:52.680
 sovereign

00:20:52.680 --> 00:20:53.000
 Lord

00:20:53.000 --> 00:20:53.480
 says,

00:20:54.220 --> 00:20:54.660
 on the

00:20:54.660 --> 00:20:55.480
 day I

00:20:55.480 --> 00:20:56.320
 cleanse

00:20:56.320 --> 00:20:56.800
 you

00:20:56.800 --> 00:20:57.920
 from

00:20:57.920 --> 00:20:58.360
 all

00:20:58.360 --> 00:20:58.800
 your

00:20:58.800 --> 00:20:59.940
 sins.

00:21:01.060 --> 00:21:01.700
 So

00:21:01.700 --> 00:21:02.160
 here is

00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:02.360
 a

00:21:02.360 --> 00:21:02.900
 promised

00:21:02.900 --> 00:21:03.560
 washing

00:21:03.560 --> 00:21:04.840
 that's

00:21:04.840 --> 00:21:05.300
 going to

00:21:05.300 --> 00:21:05.860
 restore

00:21:05.860 --> 00:21:06.100
 and

00:21:06.100 --> 00:21:06.440
 renew,

00:21:06.820 --> 00:21:06.980
 a

00:21:06.980 --> 00:21:07.580
 cleansing

00:21:07.580 --> 00:21:08.120
 that's

00:21:08.120 --> 00:21:08.520
 going to

00:21:08.520 --> 00:21:08.740
 bring

00:21:08.740 --> 00:21:09.020
 about

00:21:09.020 --> 00:21:09.400
 a new

00:21:09.400 --> 00:21:09.840
 life,

00:21:10.180 --> 00:21:10.520
 a new

00:21:10.520 --> 00:21:10.940
 beginning

00:21:10.940 --> 00:21:11.380
 and a

00:21:11.380 --> 00:21:11.720
 fresh

00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:12.200
 start.

00:21:12.380 --> 00:21:14.760
 But how

00:21:14.760 --> 00:21:15.340
 will this

00:21:15.340 --> 00:21:16.160
 promised

00:21:16.160 --> 00:21:16.900
 cleansing

00:21:16.900 --> 00:21:17.920
 actually

00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:18.360
 take

00:21:18.360 --> 00:21:18.980
 place?

00:21:20.020 --> 00:21:20.480
 Well,

00:21:20.520 --> 00:21:20.760
 let's

00:21:20.760 --> 00:21:21.360
 go back

00:21:21.360 --> 00:21:22.120
 to

00:21:22.120 --> 00:21:22.460
 John

00:21:22.460 --> 00:21:22.900
 chapter

00:21:22.900 --> 00:21:23.620
 13.

00:21:25.940 --> 00:21:26.720
 You see,

00:21:26.820 --> 00:21:27.380
 as Jesus

00:21:27.380 --> 00:21:28.180
 is there

00:21:28.180 --> 00:21:28.600
 with the

00:21:28.600 --> 00:21:29.040
 bowl of

00:21:29.040 --> 00:21:29.500
 water

00:21:29.500 --> 00:21:30.320
 washing

00:21:30.320 --> 00:21:30.660
 the

00:21:30.660 --> 00:21:31.200
 disciples'

00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:31.840
 feet,

00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:33.520
 Jesus

00:21:33.520 --> 00:21:33.940
 in a

00:21:33.940 --> 00:21:34.220
 sense

00:21:34.220 --> 00:21:34.440
 was

00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:34.800
 saying,

00:21:35.400 --> 00:21:35.620
 I

00:21:35.620 --> 00:21:35.900
 am

00:21:35.900 --> 00:21:36.080
 the

00:21:36.080 --> 00:21:36.360
 one

00:21:36.360 --> 00:21:36.600
 who

00:21:36.600 --> 00:21:36.840
 was

00:21:36.840 --> 00:21:37.520
 promised

00:21:37.519 --> 00:21:37.740
!

00:21:37.740 --> 00:21:39.180
 And I

00:21:39.180 --> 00:21:39.480
 am the

00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:39.680
 one

00:21:39.680 --> 00:21:39.920
 who's

00:21:39.920 --> 00:21:40.160
 come

00:21:40.160 --> 00:21:40.379
 to

00:21:40.379 --> 00:21:40.940
 sprinkle

00:21:40.940 --> 00:21:42.000
 clean

00:21:42.000 --> 00:21:42.519
 water

00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:42.920
 on

00:21:42.920 --> 00:21:43.279
 you.

00:21:43.779 --> 00:21:44.019
 I

00:21:44.019 --> 00:21:44.259
 have

00:21:44.259 --> 00:21:44.539
 come

00:21:44.539 --> 00:21:44.779
 to

00:21:44.779 --> 00:21:45.259
 cleanse

00:21:45.259 --> 00:21:45.660
 you

00:21:45.660 --> 00:21:46.980
 internally,

00:21:47.980 --> 00:21:48.680
 to

00:21:48.680 --> 00:21:48.960
 rid

00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:49.279
 you

00:21:49.279 --> 00:21:49.519
 of

00:21:49.519 --> 00:21:49.900
 your

00:21:49.900 --> 00:21:51.339
 impurity,

00:21:51.579 --> 00:21:51.980
 of your

00:21:51.980 --> 00:21:53.079
 idolatry.

00:21:54.660 --> 00:21:55.240
 But how

00:21:55.240 --> 00:21:56.000
 would Jesus

00:21:56.000 --> 00:21:57.019
 actually

00:21:57.019 --> 00:21:57.720
 clean us?

00:21:57.819 --> 00:21:58.139
 Does he

00:21:58.139 --> 00:21:58.759
 get out a

00:21:58.759 --> 00:21:59.220
 bowl of

00:21:59.220 --> 00:21:59.680
 soap and

00:21:59.680 --> 00:22:00.200
 water and

00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:00.440
 say,

00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:01.440
 that's it,

00:22:01.500 --> 00:22:01.740
 you're

00:22:01.740 --> 00:22:02.299
 cleaned?

00:22:02.299 --> 00:22:03.940
 No,

00:22:04.819 --> 00:22:05.339
 Jesus

00:22:05.339 --> 00:22:05.720
 will

00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:06.099
 clean

00:22:06.099 --> 00:22:06.419
 us

00:22:06.419 --> 00:22:06.819
 by

00:22:06.819 --> 00:22:07.240
 his

00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:08.000
 death.

00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:10.220
 Look at

00:22:10.220 --> 00:22:10.480
 chapter

00:22:10.480 --> 00:22:11.119
 13,

00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:11.940
 verse 1.

00:22:13.859 --> 00:22:14.159
 Jesus

00:22:14.159 --> 00:22:14.859
 knew

00:22:14.859 --> 00:22:16.119
 that the

00:22:16.119 --> 00:22:16.960
 hour had

00:22:16.960 --> 00:22:17.700
 come for

00:22:17.700 --> 00:22:18.200
 him to

00:22:18.200 --> 00:22:18.799
 leave this

00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:19.419
 world and

00:22:19.419 --> 00:22:19.799
 go to

00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:19.980
 the

00:22:19.980 --> 00:22:20.319
 Father.

00:22:20.799 --> 00:22:21.159
 Jesus

00:22:21.159 --> 00:22:21.659
 here is

00:22:21.659 --> 00:22:22.440
 talking about

00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:22.720
 his

00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:23.279
 death.

00:22:24.579 --> 00:22:25.019
 In

00:22:25.019 --> 00:22:25.480
 just a

00:22:25.480 --> 00:22:25.700
 few

00:22:25.700 --> 00:22:26.039
 hours'

00:22:26.220 --> 00:22:26.539
 time,

00:22:26.680 --> 00:22:26.960
 he would

00:22:26.960 --> 00:22:27.399
 be hung

00:22:27.399 --> 00:22:27.680
 on a

00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:28.099
 cross.

00:22:28.680 --> 00:22:28.859
 The

00:22:28.859 --> 00:22:29.359
 hour,

00:22:29.779 --> 00:22:29.919
 the

00:22:29.919 --> 00:22:30.579
 time of

00:22:30.579 --> 00:22:30.819
 his

00:22:30.819 --> 00:22:31.139
 death

00:22:31.139 --> 00:22:31.440
 and the

00:22:31.440 --> 00:22:31.740
 cross

00:22:31.740 --> 00:22:31.960
 is

00:22:31.960 --> 00:22:32.319
 about

00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:32.559
 to

00:22:32.559 --> 00:22:32.960
 happen.

00:22:33.440 --> 00:22:33.740
 Having

00:22:33.740 --> 00:22:34.220
 loved

00:22:34.220 --> 00:22:34.480
 his

00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:34.779
 own

00:22:34.779 --> 00:22:34.960
 who

00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:35.099
 were

00:22:35.099 --> 00:22:35.319
 in

00:22:35.319 --> 00:22:35.500
 the

00:22:35.500 --> 00:22:35.799
 world,

00:22:35.940 --> 00:22:36.039
 he

00:22:36.039 --> 00:22:36.400
 loved

00:22:36.400 --> 00:22:36.579
 them

00:22:36.579 --> 00:22:36.759
 to

00:22:36.759 --> 00:22:36.920
 the

00:22:36.920 --> 00:22:37.220
 end.

00:22:37.220 --> 00:22:38.079
 He loved

00:22:38.079 --> 00:22:38.480
 them to

00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:38.680
 the

00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:39.220
 fullest.

00:22:39.740 --> 00:22:40.299
 He loved

00:22:40.299 --> 00:22:40.880
 them by

00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:41.539
 going to

00:22:41.539 --> 00:22:42.200
 the cross

00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:43.420
 and dying

00:22:43.420 --> 00:22:44.339
 for them.

00:22:46.420 --> 00:22:47.180
 As

00:22:47.180 --> 00:22:47.579
 Jesus

00:22:47.579 --> 00:22:48.380
 would say,

00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:50.519
 greater

00:22:50.519 --> 00:22:51.480
 love has

00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:52.019
 no one

00:22:52.019 --> 00:22:52.720
 than this,

00:22:53.740 --> 00:22:54.519
 to lay

00:22:54.519 --> 00:22:55.519
 down one's

00:22:55.519 --> 00:22:56.960
 life for

00:22:56.960 --> 00:22:57.460
 one's

00:22:57.460 --> 00:22:58.099
 friends.

00:22:59.660 --> 00:23:00.640
 You see,

00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:01.099
 we're to

00:23:01.099 --> 00:23:01.500
 make a

00:23:01.500 --> 00:23:02.000
 connection

00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:02.480
 here.

00:23:03.199 --> 00:23:03.379
 The

00:23:03.379 --> 00:23:04.219
 external

00:23:04.219 --> 00:23:04.879
 washing

00:23:04.879 --> 00:23:05.939
 of the

00:23:05.939 --> 00:23:06.519
 disciples'

00:23:06.819 --> 00:23:07.359
 feet by

00:23:07.359 --> 00:23:07.919
 Jesus

00:23:07.919 --> 00:23:09.039
 is a

00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:09.719
 sign of

00:23:09.719 --> 00:23:09.959
 the

00:23:09.959 --> 00:23:10.719
 internal

00:23:10.719 --> 00:23:11.279
 washing

00:23:11.279 --> 00:23:11.779
 Jesus

00:23:11.779 --> 00:23:12.439
 achieved

00:23:12.439 --> 00:23:12.740
 through

00:23:12.740 --> 00:23:13.019
 his

00:23:13.019 --> 00:23:13.519
 death.

00:23:14.399 --> 00:23:14.699
 In

00:23:14.699 --> 00:23:14.939
 other

00:23:14.939 --> 00:23:15.279
 words,

00:23:15.619 --> 00:23:16.199
 we are

00:23:16.199 --> 00:23:16.579
 made

00:23:16.579 --> 00:23:17.279
 clean

00:23:17.279 --> 00:23:18.219
 by the

00:23:18.219 --> 00:23:19.579
 self-sacrificing

00:23:19.579 --> 00:23:20.139
 death of

00:23:20.139 --> 00:23:20.559
 Jesus

00:23:20.559 --> 00:23:21.639
 on the

00:23:21.639 --> 00:23:22.139
 cross.

00:23:23.199 --> 00:23:24.199
 As a

00:23:24.199 --> 00:23:24.679
 servant,

00:23:25.179 --> 00:23:25.500
 Jesus

00:23:25.500 --> 00:23:26.459
 enters into

00:23:26.460 --> 00:23:27.019
 the world

00:23:27.019 --> 00:23:28.000
 to take

00:23:28.000 --> 00:23:28.360
 our

00:23:28.360 --> 00:23:28.940
 place,

00:23:29.340 --> 00:23:29.880
 to die

00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:30.440
 for you

00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:30.799
 and for

00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:31.100
 me,

00:23:31.519 --> 00:23:32.319
 taking my

00:23:32.319 --> 00:23:32.940
 sin on

00:23:32.940 --> 00:23:33.400
 himself,

00:23:33.860 --> 00:23:34.180
 my

00:23:34.180 --> 00:23:35.000
 impurity,

00:23:35.519 --> 00:23:35.819
 my

00:23:35.819 --> 00:23:36.840
 uncleanness,

00:23:37.079 --> 00:23:37.640
 and making

00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:38.360
 it all

00:23:38.360 --> 00:23:39.079
 his own,

00:23:39.500 --> 00:23:39.860
 and in

00:23:39.860 --> 00:23:40.559
 its place

00:23:40.559 --> 00:23:41.299
 giving us

00:23:41.299 --> 00:23:42.680
 his purity,

00:23:43.779 --> 00:23:44.200
 his

00:23:44.200 --> 00:23:45.259
 cleanliness.

00:23:46.360 --> 00:23:47.380
 By his

00:23:47.380 --> 00:23:48.039
 death,

00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:49.640
 he washes

00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:50.840
 us

00:23:50.840 --> 00:23:51.340
 clean.

00:23:52.740 --> 00:23:53.440
 You see,

00:23:53.520 --> 00:23:54.040
 this is a

00:23:54.040 --> 00:23:54.540
 wonderful

00:23:54.540 --> 00:23:55.140
 picture,

00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:57.140
 because all

00:23:57.140 --> 00:23:57.660
 of us have

00:23:57.660 --> 00:23:58.580
 done things

00:23:58.580 --> 00:23:59.320
 that have

00:23:59.320 --> 00:24:00.140
 made us

00:24:00.140 --> 00:24:01.440
 unclean.

00:24:02.259 --> 00:24:02.700
 We have

00:24:02.700 --> 00:24:03.640
 lived lives

00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:04.080
 that have

00:24:04.080 --> 00:24:04.640
 left us

00:24:04.640 --> 00:24:05.080
 dirty,

00:24:05.480 --> 00:24:05.880
 and no

00:24:05.880 --> 00:24:06.400
 matter how

00:24:06.400 --> 00:24:06.960
 much we

00:24:06.960 --> 00:24:07.440
 try,

00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:08.420
 we cannot

00:24:08.420 --> 00:24:09.420
 remove that

00:24:09.420 --> 00:24:10.420
 stain of

00:24:10.420 --> 00:24:12.540
 that night

00:24:12.540 --> 00:24:13.900
 that went

00:24:13.900 --> 00:24:14.780
 too far,

00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:17.300
 that conversation

00:24:17.300 --> 00:24:18.060
 that ended

00:24:18.060 --> 00:24:19.020
 in a triad

00:24:19.019 --> 00:24:19.700
 of abuse,

00:24:20.139 --> 00:24:21.099
 that episode

00:24:21.099 --> 00:24:21.879
 in my

00:24:21.879 --> 00:24:22.639
 life that

00:24:22.639 --> 00:24:23.319
 spun out

00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:24.079
 of control.

00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:28.160
 Sometimes,

00:24:28.980 --> 00:24:29.940
 we actually

00:24:29.940 --> 00:24:30.579
 take a

00:24:30.579 --> 00:24:31.000
 physical

00:24:31.000 --> 00:24:31.940
 shower or

00:24:31.940 --> 00:24:32.599
 a bath

00:24:32.599 --> 00:24:33.259
 in an

00:24:33.259 --> 00:24:33.960
 attempt to

00:24:33.960 --> 00:24:34.480
 somehow

00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:36.379
 scrub away

00:24:36.379 --> 00:24:37.759
 guilt and

00:24:37.759 --> 00:24:38.319
 shame.

00:24:39.000 --> 00:24:39.379
 Have you

00:24:39.379 --> 00:24:39.940
 ever done

00:24:39.940 --> 00:24:40.420
 that?

00:24:41.460 --> 00:24:42.139
 Or maybe

00:24:42.139 --> 00:24:42.660
 you have

00:24:42.660 --> 00:24:43.440
 that buried

00:24:43.440 --> 00:24:44.420
 so deep

00:24:44.420 --> 00:24:45.019
 within your

00:24:45.019 --> 00:24:46.019
 life that

00:24:46.019 --> 00:24:46.779
 you're afraid

00:24:46.779 --> 00:24:47.579
 to admit

00:24:47.579 --> 00:24:48.139
 it or to

00:24:48.139 --> 00:24:48.879
 say anything

00:24:48.880 --> 00:24:50.100
 because God

00:24:50.100 --> 00:24:51.080
 will despise

00:24:51.080 --> 00:24:51.480
 you and

00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:52.280
 reject you.

00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:54.000
 Well,

00:24:54.080 --> 00:24:54.700
 look again

00:24:54.700 --> 00:24:55.300
 into this

00:24:55.300 --> 00:24:55.640
 room.

00:24:56.580 --> 00:24:57.100
 See this

00:24:57.100 --> 00:24:57.900
 meal that

00:24:57.900 --> 00:24:58.460
 is taking

00:24:58.460 --> 00:24:59.100
 place.

00:24:59.780 --> 00:25:00.600
 See Jesus,

00:25:00.760 --> 00:25:01.280
 the God

00:25:01.280 --> 00:25:01.940
 man with

00:25:01.940 --> 00:25:02.640
 absolute

00:25:02.640 --> 00:25:03.300
 power,

00:25:03.780 --> 00:25:04.620
 becoming a

00:25:04.620 --> 00:25:05.040
 servant

00:25:05.040 --> 00:25:06.600
 to wash

00:25:06.600 --> 00:25:08.040
 us clean.

00:25:09.640 --> 00:25:10.100
 You see,

00:25:10.180 --> 00:25:10.780
 by turning

00:25:10.780 --> 00:25:11.540
 to Jesus,

00:25:12.040 --> 00:25:12.620
 we're not

00:25:12.620 --> 00:25:13.240
 crushed,

00:25:13.880 --> 00:25:14.880
 we're made

00:25:14.880 --> 00:25:15.460
 clean.

00:25:15.460 --> 00:25:16.840
 we're not

00:25:16.840 --> 00:25:17.519
 rejected,

00:25:18.059 --> 00:25:19.319
 we're washed.

00:25:19.980 --> 00:25:20.440
 He gave

00:25:20.440 --> 00:25:21.200
 his life

00:25:21.200 --> 00:25:21.700
 for you

00:25:21.700 --> 00:25:22.079
 and for

00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:22.420
 me,

00:25:22.740 --> 00:25:23.180
 that we

00:25:23.180 --> 00:25:23.640
 would be

00:25:23.640 --> 00:25:24.120
 welcomed

00:25:24.120 --> 00:25:24.880
 into that

00:25:24.880 --> 00:25:27.039
 pure love

00:25:27.039 --> 00:25:27.819
 of the

00:25:27.819 --> 00:25:28.620
 Father and

00:25:28.620 --> 00:25:29.180
 the Son

00:25:29.180 --> 00:25:31.279
 to enjoy

00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:31.860
 him

00:25:31.860 --> 00:25:32.940
 forever.

00:25:35.940 --> 00:25:36.539
 So,

00:25:36.539 --> 00:25:39.039
 are you

00:25:39.039 --> 00:25:39.819
 clean?

00:25:39.819 --> 00:25:44.059
 look at

00:25:44.059 --> 00:25:44.779
 verse 10

00:25:44.779 --> 00:25:45.359
 with me.

00:25:48.359 --> 00:25:49.000
 Jesus

00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:49.759
 answered,

00:25:50.639 --> 00:25:51.519
 those who

00:25:51.519 --> 00:25:52.079
 have had a

00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:52.759
 bath need

00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:53.319
 only to

00:25:53.319 --> 00:25:53.980
 wash their

00:25:53.980 --> 00:25:54.460
 feet.

00:25:55.460 --> 00:25:56.240
 Their whole

00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:57.059
 body is

00:25:57.059 --> 00:25:57.500
 clean,

00:25:57.980 --> 00:25:58.919
 and you

00:25:58.919 --> 00:25:59.480
 are clean

00:25:59.480 --> 00:25:59.980
 though not

00:25:59.980 --> 00:26:00.579
 every one

00:26:00.579 --> 00:26:00.960
 of you,

00:26:01.359 --> 00:26:01.879
 for he

00:26:01.879 --> 00:26:02.419
 knew who

00:26:02.419 --> 00:26:02.899
 was going

00:26:02.899 --> 00:26:03.539
 to betray

00:26:03.539 --> 00:26:03.899
 him,

00:26:04.200 --> 00:26:04.619
 and that

00:26:04.619 --> 00:26:05.099
 was why

00:26:05.099 --> 00:26:05.819
 he said

00:26:05.819 --> 00:26:06.259
 not

00:26:06.259 --> 00:26:06.839
 everyone

00:26:06.839 --> 00:26:07.819
 was

00:26:07.819 --> 00:26:08.319
 clean.

00:26:09.700 --> 00:26:10.480
 You see,

00:26:10.579 --> 00:26:11.740
 Jesus sees

00:26:11.740 --> 00:26:12.740
 and knows

00:26:12.740 --> 00:26:13.299
 our hearts.

00:26:13.619 --> 00:26:14.000
 He can

00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:14.740
 peer right

00:26:14.740 --> 00:26:15.359
 into my

00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:16.160
 soul now,

00:26:16.339 --> 00:26:16.779
 and he

00:26:16.779 --> 00:26:17.460
 knows what's

00:26:17.460 --> 00:26:17.960
 on your

00:26:17.960 --> 00:26:18.680
 heart right

00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:19.059
 now.

00:26:19.859 --> 00:26:20.420
 But if

00:26:20.420 --> 00:26:20.740
 we have

00:26:20.740 --> 00:26:21.359
 come in

00:26:21.359 --> 00:26:22.559
 trust to

00:26:22.559 --> 00:26:23.059
 Jesus,

00:26:24.099 --> 00:26:24.879
 we have

00:26:24.879 --> 00:26:25.759
 been made

00:26:25.759 --> 00:26:26.819
 clean,

00:26:27.539 --> 00:26:28.599
 no blemish

00:26:28.599 --> 00:26:29.680
 remains,

00:26:30.099 --> 00:26:31.279
 every sin,

00:26:31.799 --> 00:26:32.319
 past,

00:26:32.660 --> 00:26:33.079
 present,

00:26:33.220 --> 00:26:34.180
 and future,

00:26:34.779 --> 00:26:35.480
 has been

00:26:35.480 --> 00:26:36.559
 washed

00:26:36.559 --> 00:26:37.440
 away.

00:26:40.279 --> 00:26:41.200
 But maybe

00:26:41.200 --> 00:26:41.579
 you are

00:26:41.579 --> 00:26:42.120
 here and

00:26:42.120 --> 00:26:42.319
 you're

00:26:42.319 --> 00:26:42.599
 weighed

00:26:42.599 --> 00:26:43.240
 down by

00:26:43.240 --> 00:26:43.860
 your sin,

00:26:45.980 --> 00:26:46.480
 bogged

00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:47.099
 down with

00:26:47.099 --> 00:26:47.839
 guilt and

00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:48.420
 shame of

00:26:48.420 --> 00:26:49.319
 the past.

00:26:50.839 --> 00:26:51.099
 Well,

00:26:51.200 --> 00:26:52.220
 don't fear

00:26:52.220 --> 00:26:52.839
 Jesus.

00:26:53.900 --> 00:26:54.480
 Come to

00:26:54.480 --> 00:26:54.779
 him,

00:26:55.660 --> 00:26:56.380
 sit as it

00:26:56.380 --> 00:26:56.860
 were at

00:26:56.860 --> 00:26:57.480
 the table,

00:26:58.019 --> 00:26:58.440
 and let

00:26:58.440 --> 00:26:59.860
 him serve

00:26:59.860 --> 00:27:00.559
 you.

00:27:01.420 --> 00:27:02.059
 Let him

00:27:02.059 --> 00:27:02.860
 wash you,

00:27:03.279 --> 00:27:03.680
 let him

00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:04.519
 clean you,

00:27:05.000 --> 00:27:05.360
 confess

00:27:05.359 --> 00:27:06.279
 your sins

00:27:06.279 --> 00:27:06.759
 to him,

00:27:06.919 --> 00:27:07.459
 and he

00:27:07.459 --> 00:27:08.219
 will make

00:27:08.219 --> 00:27:09.899
 you pure,

00:27:10.779 --> 00:27:11.559
 so that

00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:12.179
 you too

00:27:12.179 --> 00:27:13.079
 can enjoy

00:27:13.079 --> 00:27:14.419
 the pure

00:27:14.419 --> 00:27:15.659
 love of

00:27:15.659 --> 00:27:16.259
 the Father

00:27:16.259 --> 00:27:17.479
 and the

00:27:17.479 --> 00:27:17.819
 Son.

00:27:19.119 --> 00:27:19.819
 Let him

00:27:19.819 --> 00:27:21.119
 wash you,

00:27:21.799 --> 00:27:22.399
 for that

00:27:22.399 --> 00:27:23.000
 is why

00:27:23.000 --> 00:27:24.319
 he came.

00:27:24.319 --> 00:27:26.099
 God

00:27:26.099 --> 00:27:26.639
 so Jesus

00:27:26.639 --> 00:27:27.480
 loves us

00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:27.740
 by

00:27:27.740 --> 00:27:28.179
 becoming

00:27:28.179 --> 00:27:28.439
 a

00:27:28.439 --> 00:27:28.779
 servant.

00:27:29.679 --> 00:27:29.779
 He

00:27:29.779 --> 00:27:30.039
 loves

00:27:30.039 --> 00:27:30.259
 us

00:27:30.259 --> 00:27:30.500
 by

00:27:30.500 --> 00:27:30.879
 washing

00:27:30.879 --> 00:27:31.179
 us

00:27:31.179 --> 00:27:31.700
 clean.

00:27:33.000 --> 00:27:33.099
 And

00:27:33.099 --> 00:27:33.359
 third,

00:27:33.460 --> 00:27:33.720
 Jesus

00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:34.240
 loves

00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:34.579
 us

00:27:34.579 --> 00:27:34.859
 by

00:27:34.859 --> 00:27:35.379
 leaving

00:27:35.379 --> 00:27:35.960
 an

00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:36.500
 example.

00:27:37.779 --> 00:27:40.539
 Can you

00:27:40.539 --> 00:27:41.099
 turn up the

00:27:41.099 --> 00:27:41.819
 volume just a

00:27:41.819 --> 00:27:41.980
 little?

00:27:42.740 --> 00:27:43.519
 I'm raising

00:27:43.519 --> 00:27:44.240
 my voice too

00:27:44.240 --> 00:27:44.519
 much,

00:27:44.619 --> 00:27:45.259
 competing with

00:27:45.259 --> 00:27:45.639
 the rain.

00:27:46.299 --> 00:27:46.779
 Thank you.

00:27:47.720 --> 00:27:48.079
 And there

00:27:48.079 --> 00:27:48.659
 it's dying.

00:27:48.779 --> 00:27:49.039
 Isn't that

00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:49.460
 wonderful?

00:27:49.460 --> 00:27:51.460
 verse 12.

00:27:52.920 --> 00:27:53.880
 When he had

00:27:53.880 --> 00:27:54.860
 finished washing

00:27:54.860 --> 00:27:55.640
 their feet,

00:27:56.299 --> 00:27:57.180
 he had put on

00:27:57.180 --> 00:27:58.039
 his clothes and

00:27:58.039 --> 00:27:58.640
 returned to

00:27:58.640 --> 00:27:59.360
 his place.

00:28:00.680 --> 00:28:01.480
 Do you

00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:02.680
 understand what

00:28:02.680 --> 00:28:03.319
 I have done

00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:03.840
 for you?

00:28:04.019 --> 00:28:04.799
 Jesus asked

00:28:04.799 --> 00:28:05.000
 them.

00:28:05.740 --> 00:28:06.500
 You call me

00:28:06.500 --> 00:28:07.180
 teacher?

00:28:08.059 --> 00:28:08.840
 You want to

00:28:08.840 --> 00:28:09.440
 learn from

00:28:09.440 --> 00:28:09.700
 me?

00:28:10.380 --> 00:28:11.180
 You call me

00:28:11.180 --> 00:28:11.600
 Lord?

00:28:11.799 --> 00:28:12.700
 You say you

00:28:12.700 --> 00:28:13.539
 want to obey

00:28:13.539 --> 00:28:13.900
 me?

00:28:14.740 --> 00:28:15.500
 And rightly

00:28:15.500 --> 00:28:16.460
 so, for that

00:28:16.460 --> 00:28:17.019
 is what I

00:28:17.019 --> 00:28:17.340
 am.

00:28:17.700 --> 00:28:18.039
 And now

00:28:18.039 --> 00:28:18.440
 that I

00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:18.940
 am your

00:28:18.940 --> 00:28:19.980
 Lord and

00:28:19.980 --> 00:28:20.480
 teacher,

00:28:21.120 --> 00:28:21.740
 have washed

00:28:21.740 --> 00:28:22.539
 your feet,

00:28:23.019 --> 00:28:23.680
 so you

00:28:23.680 --> 00:28:24.380
 should also

00:28:24.380 --> 00:28:25.039
 wash one

00:28:25.039 --> 00:28:25.559
 another's

00:28:25.559 --> 00:28:25.900
 feet.

00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:27.700
 I have

00:28:27.700 --> 00:28:28.319
 set you

00:28:28.319 --> 00:28:29.039
 an example

00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:29.620
 that you

00:28:29.620 --> 00:28:30.340
 should do

00:28:30.340 --> 00:28:31.299
 as I

00:28:31.299 --> 00:28:31.700
 have done

00:28:31.700 --> 00:28:32.279
 for you.

00:28:34.220 --> 00:28:34.980
 Can we

00:28:34.980 --> 00:28:35.559
 hear what

00:28:35.559 --> 00:28:36.160
 Jesus is

00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:36.420
 saying?

00:28:36.500 --> 00:28:36.880
 I have

00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:38.279
 loved you

00:28:38.279 --> 00:28:39.600
 by serving

00:28:39.600 --> 00:28:40.059
 you,

00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:41.279
 so you

00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:42.279
 must serve

00:28:42.279 --> 00:28:43.440
 one another.

00:28:43.440 --> 00:28:46.420
 So next

00:28:46.420 --> 00:28:46.900
 Sunday,

00:28:47.740 --> 00:28:49.140
 who's on

00:28:49.140 --> 00:28:49.559
 welcome?

00:28:50.340 --> 00:28:50.940
 Hands up?

00:28:51.580 --> 00:28:52.080
 Oh Mary,

00:28:52.960 --> 00:28:53.539
 Mary and

00:28:53.539 --> 00:28:54.160
 maybe somebody

00:28:54.160 --> 00:28:54.559
 else.

00:28:55.120 --> 00:28:55.900
 You must

00:28:55.900 --> 00:28:57.120
 wash people's

00:28:57.120 --> 00:28:57.799
 feet as they

00:28:57.799 --> 00:28:58.420
 come in the

00:28:58.420 --> 00:28:58.720
 door,

00:28:59.420 --> 00:29:00.039
 right?

00:29:01.420 --> 00:29:02.320
 Well, not

00:29:02.320 --> 00:29:03.019
 necessarily,

00:29:03.580 --> 00:29:03.980
 thankfully.

00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:05.180
 We don't

00:29:05.180 --> 00:29:06.220
 wear sandals

00:29:06.220 --> 00:29:07.519
 and we

00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:08.220
 don't eat

00:29:08.220 --> 00:29:09.039
 and we

00:29:09.039 --> 00:29:09.799
 eat sitting

00:29:09.799 --> 00:29:10.539
 at a table,

00:29:11.140 --> 00:29:11.400
 so it

00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:11.900
 wouldn't make

00:29:11.900 --> 00:29:13.019
 sense for us

00:29:13.019 --> 00:29:13.759
 to be washing

00:29:13.759 --> 00:29:14.660
 each other's

00:29:14.660 --> 00:29:15.099
 feet.

00:29:15.940 --> 00:29:16.639
 However, the

00:29:16.639 --> 00:29:17.720
 principle is

00:29:17.720 --> 00:29:18.819
 we are

00:29:18.819 --> 00:29:19.500
 meant to

00:29:19.500 --> 00:29:20.500
 serve one

00:29:20.500 --> 00:29:21.720
 another with

00:29:21.720 --> 00:29:23.460
 humble love.

00:29:24.740 --> 00:29:25.400
 So two

00:29:25.400 --> 00:29:25.980
 things to

00:29:25.980 --> 00:29:27.519
 consider what

00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:28.339
 it means to

00:29:28.339 --> 00:29:28.960
 follow the

00:29:28.960 --> 00:29:29.839
 example of

00:29:29.839 --> 00:29:31.400
 Jesus as

00:29:31.400 --> 00:29:32.200
 we serve

00:29:32.200 --> 00:29:33.299
 one another.

00:29:34.420 --> 00:29:35.139
 Firstly,

00:29:36.420 --> 00:29:37.259
 no one

00:29:37.259 --> 00:29:38.460
 is above

00:29:38.460 --> 00:29:39.379
 being a

00:29:39.379 --> 00:29:39.740
 servant.

00:29:40.779 --> 00:29:41.240
 None of

00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:41.900
 us here can

00:29:41.900 --> 00:29:42.339
 say,

00:29:42.339 --> 00:29:44.099
 I'm not

00:29:44.099 --> 00:29:44.720
 a servant.

00:29:45.720 --> 00:29:46.459
 If we

00:29:46.459 --> 00:29:46.959
 have been

00:29:46.959 --> 00:29:47.859
 cleaned by

00:29:47.859 --> 00:29:48.419
 Jesus,

00:29:49.099 --> 00:29:49.459
 he has

00:29:49.459 --> 00:29:50.399
 cleaned you

00:29:50.399 --> 00:29:51.679
 to bring

00:29:51.679 --> 00:29:52.159
 you into

00:29:52.159 --> 00:29:53.059
 the sphere

00:29:53.059 --> 00:29:54.519
 of serving.

00:29:55.079 --> 00:29:55.799
 Look at

00:29:55.799 --> 00:29:56.659
 verse 16.

00:29:58.659 --> 00:29:59.259
 Very

00:29:59.259 --> 00:29:59.899
 truly I

00:29:59.899 --> 00:30:00.559
 tell you,

00:30:01.139 --> 00:30:02.099
 no servant

00:30:02.099 --> 00:30:02.799
 is greater

00:30:02.799 --> 00:30:03.339
 than his

00:30:03.339 --> 00:30:03.959
 master,

00:30:04.679 --> 00:30:05.559
 nor is a

00:30:05.559 --> 00:30:05.959
 messenger

00:30:05.959 --> 00:30:06.720
 greater than

00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:07.220
 the one

00:30:07.220 --> 00:30:08.500
 who sent

00:30:08.500 --> 00:30:08.779
 him.

00:30:08.779 --> 00:30:10.480
 if Jesus

00:30:10.480 --> 00:30:11.379
 who has

00:30:11.379 --> 00:30:11.839
 been given

00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:12.940
 all power

00:30:12.940 --> 00:30:14.379
 over all

00:30:14.379 --> 00:30:14.779
 things,

00:30:14.899 --> 00:30:15.500
 if Jesus

00:30:15.500 --> 00:30:16.139
 the God

00:30:16.139 --> 00:30:16.920
 man takes

00:30:16.920 --> 00:30:17.700
 the lowest

00:30:17.700 --> 00:30:18.399
 position

00:30:18.399 --> 00:30:19.799
 possible to

00:30:19.799 --> 00:30:20.799
 serve us,

00:30:21.799 --> 00:30:22.660
 then I

00:30:22.660 --> 00:30:23.420
 am not

00:30:23.420 --> 00:30:24.000
 above the

00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:24.720
 position of

00:30:24.720 --> 00:30:25.099
 servant.

00:30:25.099 --> 00:30:26.920
 In fact,

00:30:27.039 --> 00:30:27.799
 we are all

00:30:27.799 --> 00:30:28.940
 to assume

00:30:28.940 --> 00:30:30.519
 the position

00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:31.680
 of servant.

00:30:32.559 --> 00:30:33.279
 We live

00:30:33.279 --> 00:30:34.399
 our lives

00:30:34.399 --> 00:30:36.220
 as servants.

00:30:36.220 --> 00:30:38.579
 Do you

00:30:38.579 --> 00:30:39.039
 remember how

00:30:39.039 --> 00:30:39.620
 the apostle

00:30:39.620 --> 00:30:40.299
 Paul put

00:30:40.299 --> 00:30:40.480
 it?

00:30:40.600 --> 00:30:41.100
 We had

00:30:41.100 --> 00:30:41.519
 it read

00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:41.920
 to us

00:30:41.920 --> 00:30:42.180
 at the

00:30:42.180 --> 00:30:42.480
 beginning

00:30:42.480 --> 00:30:42.860
 of our

00:30:42.860 --> 00:30:43.220
 time

00:30:43.220 --> 00:30:43.819
 together.

00:30:44.779 --> 00:30:45.380
 Philippians

00:30:45.380 --> 00:30:46.319
 chapter 2.

00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:48.440
 Let me

00:30:48.440 --> 00:30:49.160
 remind you

00:30:49.160 --> 00:30:49.480
 of the

00:30:49.480 --> 00:30:49.940
 words.

00:30:51.600 --> 00:30:52.240
 Philippians

00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:53.059
 chapter 2

00:30:53.059 --> 00:30:54.019
 verse 5.

00:30:56.180 --> 00:30:57.000
 In your

00:30:57.000 --> 00:30:57.920
 relationships

00:30:57.920 --> 00:30:59.940
 with one

00:30:59.940 --> 00:31:00.480
 another,

00:31:01.880 --> 00:31:02.759
 have the

00:31:02.759 --> 00:31:03.180
 same

00:31:03.180 --> 00:31:03.799
 mindset

00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:05.160
 as

00:31:05.160 --> 00:31:05.600
 Christ

00:31:05.599 --> 00:31:06.279
 Jesus.

00:31:07.399 --> 00:31:08.000
 Do you

00:31:08.000 --> 00:31:08.359
 get that?

00:31:08.419 --> 00:31:08.699
 In our

00:31:08.699 --> 00:31:09.399
 relationships

00:31:09.399 --> 00:31:10.099
 with one

00:31:10.099 --> 00:31:10.519
 another,

00:31:11.179 --> 00:31:11.859
 have the

00:31:11.859 --> 00:31:12.299
 same

00:31:12.299 --> 00:31:12.899
 mindset

00:31:12.899 --> 00:31:13.279
 as

00:31:13.279 --> 00:31:13.679
 Christ

00:31:13.679 --> 00:31:14.159
 Jesus.

00:31:15.459 --> 00:31:15.679
 Well,

00:31:15.719 --> 00:31:16.099
 what was

00:31:16.099 --> 00:31:16.519
 that?

00:31:17.599 --> 00:31:17.980
 Well,

00:31:18.079 --> 00:31:18.339
 who,

00:31:18.500 --> 00:31:18.939
 being in

00:31:18.939 --> 00:31:19.759
 very nature

00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:20.500
 God,

00:31:21.619 --> 00:31:22.359
 did not

00:31:22.359 --> 00:31:22.859
 consider

00:31:22.859 --> 00:31:23.480
 equality

00:31:23.480 --> 00:31:24.399
 with God

00:31:24.399 --> 00:31:25.099
 something to

00:31:25.099 --> 00:31:25.759
 be used

00:31:25.759 --> 00:31:26.219
 to his

00:31:26.219 --> 00:31:26.480
 own

00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:27.099
 advantage,

00:31:27.939 --> 00:31:28.659
 rather he

00:31:28.659 --> 00:31:29.539
 made himself

00:31:29.539 --> 00:31:31.359
 nothing by

00:31:31.359 --> 00:31:31.899
 taking the

00:31:31.899 --> 00:31:32.719
 very nature

00:31:32.719 --> 00:31:33.079
 of a

00:31:33.079 --> 00:31:33.399
 servant

00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:34.440
 and being

00:31:34.440 --> 00:31:35.019
 made in

00:31:35.019 --> 00:31:35.360
 human

00:31:35.360 --> 00:31:36.160
 likeness

00:31:36.160 --> 00:31:36.940
 and being

00:31:36.940 --> 00:31:37.640
 found in

00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:38.360
 appearance as

00:31:38.360 --> 00:31:38.720
 a man,

00:31:38.840 --> 00:31:39.480
 he humbled

00:31:39.480 --> 00:31:40.100
 himself

00:31:40.100 --> 00:31:41.820
 by becoming

00:31:41.820 --> 00:31:42.880
 obedient to

00:31:42.880 --> 00:31:43.420
 death,

00:31:44.220 --> 00:31:45.300
 even death

00:31:45.300 --> 00:31:45.940
 on a

00:31:45.940 --> 00:31:46.420
 cross.

00:31:48.420 --> 00:31:49.680
 That is

00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:50.460
 the mindset

00:31:50.460 --> 00:31:52.240
 we are to

00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:52.720
 have.

00:31:54.080 --> 00:31:55.120
 So when we

00:31:55.120 --> 00:31:56.060
 arrive on a

00:31:56.060 --> 00:31:56.820
 Sunday morning,

00:31:58.080 --> 00:31:59.759
 come as a

00:31:59.759 --> 00:32:00.200
 servant,

00:32:00.200 --> 00:32:02.559
 come ready

00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:03.500
 to give,

00:32:04.539 --> 00:32:05.319
 come ready

00:32:05.319 --> 00:32:06.460
 humbly to

00:32:06.460 --> 00:32:07.580
 love one

00:32:07.580 --> 00:32:07.940
 another.

00:32:08.360 --> 00:32:08.960
 During the

00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:09.319
 week,

00:32:09.640 --> 00:32:10.100
 plan,

00:32:10.420 --> 00:32:10.980
 how am I

00:32:10.980 --> 00:32:11.500
 going to

00:32:11.500 --> 00:32:12.620
 serve the

00:32:12.620 --> 00:32:13.460
 church family?

00:32:15.160 --> 00:32:16.080
 As Jesus

00:32:16.080 --> 00:32:16.640
 said,

00:32:17.640 --> 00:32:18.440
 I have set

00:32:18.440 --> 00:32:19.160
 an example

00:32:19.160 --> 00:32:19.779
 that you

00:32:19.779 --> 00:32:20.680
 should do

00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:22.240
 as I have

00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:23.480
 done for

00:32:23.480 --> 00:32:23.819
 you.

00:32:25.319 --> 00:32:25.840
 You see,

00:32:25.920 --> 00:32:26.580
 if I think

00:32:26.580 --> 00:32:27.380
 I am above

00:32:27.380 --> 00:32:28.240
 the place of

00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:29.019
 servanthood,

00:32:29.019 --> 00:32:29.200
 servanthood,

00:32:29.900 --> 00:32:31.299
 it is saying

00:32:31.299 --> 00:32:31.920
 I am actually

00:32:31.920 --> 00:32:32.660
 above the

00:32:32.660 --> 00:32:33.279
 Lord Jesus

00:32:33.279 --> 00:32:33.960
 Christ.

00:32:34.619 --> 00:32:35.559
 I am better

00:32:35.559 --> 00:32:36.180
 than him.

00:32:37.420 --> 00:32:37.920
 Oh no,

00:32:37.980 --> 00:32:38.519
 we are not.

00:32:40.200 --> 00:32:41.139
 He loved

00:32:41.139 --> 00:32:42.299
 us and

00:32:42.299 --> 00:32:42.960
 washed us

00:32:42.960 --> 00:32:43.519
 and cleaned

00:32:43.519 --> 00:32:44.879
 us so

00:32:44.879 --> 00:32:45.319
 that we

00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:46.279
 can serve

00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:47.400
 one another

00:32:47.400 --> 00:32:48.079
 in love.

00:32:48.819 --> 00:32:49.519
 So no one

00:32:49.519 --> 00:32:50.119
 is above

00:32:50.119 --> 00:32:50.759
 being a

00:32:50.759 --> 00:32:51.079
 servant.

00:32:52.879 --> 00:32:53.740
 And second,

00:32:53.740 --> 00:32:56.240
 no one

00:32:56.240 --> 00:32:57.099
 is below

00:32:57.099 --> 00:32:58.319
 being

00:32:58.319 --> 00:32:59.500
 served.

00:33:00.180 --> 00:33:00.640
 No one

00:33:00.640 --> 00:33:01.380
 is below

00:33:01.380 --> 00:33:02.460
 being served.

00:33:03.259 --> 00:33:03.920
 Look at

00:33:03.920 --> 00:33:04.339
 who

00:33:04.339 --> 00:33:05.059
 Jesus

00:33:05.059 --> 00:33:05.680
 served

00:33:05.680 --> 00:33:06.440
 in this

00:33:06.440 --> 00:33:07.079
 meal.

00:33:08.140 --> 00:33:08.620
 Go back

00:33:08.620 --> 00:33:09.059
 to verse

00:33:09.059 --> 00:33:09.480
 one.

00:33:11.579 --> 00:33:11.920
 Jesus

00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:12.740
 knew

00:33:12.740 --> 00:33:14.079
 that the

00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:14.539
 hour had

00:33:14.539 --> 00:33:14.960
 come for

00:33:14.960 --> 00:33:15.339
 him to

00:33:15.339 --> 00:33:15.799
 leave this

00:33:15.799 --> 00:33:16.299
 world and

00:33:16.299 --> 00:33:16.660
 go to

00:33:16.660 --> 00:33:16.839
 the

00:33:16.839 --> 00:33:17.200
 Father.

00:33:17.839 --> 00:33:18.380
 Verse

00:33:18.380 --> 00:33:18.779
 three,

00:33:18.779 --> 00:33:19.960
 Jesus

00:33:19.960 --> 00:33:20.799
 knew

00:33:20.799 --> 00:33:21.879
 that the

00:33:21.879 --> 00:33:22.399
 Father had

00:33:22.399 --> 00:33:22.980
 put things

00:33:22.980 --> 00:33:24.000
 all under

00:33:24.000 --> 00:33:24.740
 his power.

00:33:25.579 --> 00:33:26.099
 Verse

00:33:26.099 --> 00:33:26.559
 11,

00:33:27.500 --> 00:33:27.960
 Jesus

00:33:27.960 --> 00:33:29.139
 knew

00:33:29.139 --> 00:33:30.220
 who was

00:33:30.220 --> 00:33:30.680
 going to

00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:31.059
 betray

00:33:31.059 --> 00:33:31.960
 him and

00:33:31.960 --> 00:33:32.319
 that is

00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:32.720
 why he

00:33:32.720 --> 00:33:33.279
 said not

00:33:33.279 --> 00:33:33.720
 everyone

00:33:33.720 --> 00:33:34.619
 was clean.

00:33:35.500 --> 00:33:35.879
 Jesus

00:33:35.879 --> 00:33:37.160
 knew

00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:38.259
 all that

00:33:38.259 --> 00:33:38.680
 was going

00:33:38.680 --> 00:33:39.059
 to take

00:33:39.059 --> 00:33:39.500
 place.

00:33:39.899 --> 00:33:40.099
 This

00:33:40.099 --> 00:33:40.599
 isn't a

00:33:40.599 --> 00:33:41.039
 surprise

00:33:41.039 --> 00:33:41.839
 to Jesus.

00:33:42.259 --> 00:33:42.759
 He knows

00:33:42.759 --> 00:33:43.160
 what's

00:33:43.160 --> 00:33:43.619
 around the

00:33:43.619 --> 00:33:44.700
 corner and

00:33:44.700 --> 00:33:45.839
 Jesus knew

00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:47.000
 what Judas

00:33:47.000 --> 00:33:47.579
 was going

00:33:47.579 --> 00:33:48.199
 to do.

00:33:48.679 --> 00:33:49.359
 But that

00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:49.859
 didn't

00:33:49.859 --> 00:33:51.079
 stop Jesus

00:33:51.079 --> 00:33:51.759
 washing

00:33:51.759 --> 00:33:52.279
 Judas'

00:33:52.539 --> 00:33:53.039
 feet.

00:33:54.919 --> 00:33:55.500
 He made

00:33:55.500 --> 00:33:56.399
 no distinction

00:33:56.399 --> 00:33:57.099
 as he went

00:33:57.099 --> 00:33:57.740
 round that

00:33:57.740 --> 00:33:58.319
 group of

00:33:58.319 --> 00:33:58.859
 disciples.

00:33:59.399 --> 00:34:00.000
 He served

00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:00.579
 them all

00:34:00.579 --> 00:34:01.139
 and he

00:34:01.139 --> 00:34:01.639
 came to

00:34:01.639 --> 00:34:02.639
 Judas and

00:34:02.639 --> 00:34:03.279
 he washed

00:34:03.279 --> 00:34:04.839
 his smelly

00:34:04.839 --> 00:34:05.879
 dirty feet

00:34:05.879 --> 00:34:06.399
 too.

00:34:09.079 --> 00:34:09.599
 You see

00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:10.259
 sometimes

00:34:10.259 --> 00:34:11.779
 we can

00:34:11.779 --> 00:34:12.179
 have the

00:34:12.179 --> 00:34:13.159
 mindset that

00:34:13.159 --> 00:34:13.599
 says

00:34:13.599 --> 00:34:14.799
 oh no

00:34:14.800 --> 00:34:16.600
 I can't

00:34:16.600 --> 00:34:17.280
 serve them.

00:34:18.080 --> 00:34:18.620
 They are

00:34:18.620 --> 00:34:19.880
 so ungrateful.

00:34:20.940 --> 00:34:21.560
 Why should

00:34:21.560 --> 00:34:22.060
 I ever

00:34:22.060 --> 00:34:22.820
 serve them

00:34:22.820 --> 00:34:23.820
 after what

00:34:23.820 --> 00:34:24.320
 they did

00:34:24.320 --> 00:34:24.820
 to me?

00:34:28.000 --> 00:34:28.600
 Well

00:34:28.600 --> 00:34:29.240
 imagine if

00:34:29.240 --> 00:34:29.620
 that was

00:34:29.620 --> 00:34:30.220
 the mindset

00:34:30.220 --> 00:34:30.980
 of Jesus.

00:34:32.120 --> 00:34:32.860
 What if

00:34:32.860 --> 00:34:33.920
 he bypassed

00:34:33.920 --> 00:34:34.340
 us and

00:34:34.340 --> 00:34:36.000
 says no

00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:36.460
 I'm not

00:34:36.460 --> 00:34:37.100
 washing you

00:34:37.100 --> 00:34:37.539
 clean.

00:34:39.340 --> 00:34:40.080
 You see

00:34:40.080 --> 00:34:40.680
 not one

00:34:40.680 --> 00:34:41.080
 of us

00:34:41.080 --> 00:34:41.740
 deserves

00:34:41.740 --> 00:34:42.539
 the humble

00:34:42.539 --> 00:34:43.180
 servant

00:34:43.180 --> 00:34:44.539
 love of

00:34:44.539 --> 00:34:45.179
 Jesus

00:34:45.179 --> 00:34:46.820
 but

00:34:46.820 --> 00:34:47.440
 knowing

00:34:47.440 --> 00:34:48.539
 and seeing

00:34:48.539 --> 00:34:49.179
 my

00:34:49.179 --> 00:34:50.519
 uncleanness

00:34:50.519 --> 00:34:52.440
 knowing

00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:53.579
 exactly how

00:34:53.579 --> 00:34:53.940
 I would

00:34:53.940 --> 00:34:54.440
 behave

00:34:54.440 --> 00:34:55.539
 and how

00:34:55.539 --> 00:34:55.900
 I would

00:34:55.900 --> 00:34:56.519
 treat him

00:34:56.519 --> 00:34:57.880
 Jesus

00:34:57.880 --> 00:34:59.000
 died for

00:34:59.000 --> 00:34:59.440
 me

00:34:59.440 --> 00:35:01.000
 and washed

00:35:01.000 --> 00:35:01.460
 me

00:35:01.460 --> 00:35:02.179
 clean.

00:35:03.179 --> 00:35:04.380
 That means

00:35:04.380 --> 00:35:05.199
 I can never

00:35:05.199 --> 00:35:05.659
 look at

00:35:05.659 --> 00:35:06.400
 anyone and

00:35:06.400 --> 00:35:07.619
 say they

00:35:07.619 --> 00:35:08.719
 are below

00:35:08.719 --> 00:35:10.360
 being served.

00:35:10.360 --> 00:35:12.539
 not one

00:35:12.539 --> 00:35:14.420
 person is

00:35:14.420 --> 00:35:14.940
 below

00:35:14.940 --> 00:35:15.880
 being

00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:16.420
 served.

00:35:18.420 --> 00:35:19.079
 And if

00:35:19.079 --> 00:35:19.559
 ever I

00:35:19.559 --> 00:35:20.300
 find it a

00:35:20.300 --> 00:35:20.760
 difficulty

00:35:20.760 --> 00:35:21.340
 or if

00:35:21.340 --> 00:35:22.400
 you find

00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:22.720
 it a

00:35:22.720 --> 00:35:23.160
 difficulty

00:35:23.160 --> 00:35:24.519
 to serve

00:35:24.519 --> 00:35:24.920
 another

00:35:24.920 --> 00:35:25.539
 person

00:35:25.539 --> 00:35:27.380
 well look

00:35:27.380 --> 00:35:27.900
 again at

00:35:27.900 --> 00:35:28.539
 the cross

00:35:28.539 --> 00:35:30.220
 and look

00:35:30.220 --> 00:35:30.800
 at Jesus

00:35:30.800 --> 00:35:32.720
 who died

00:35:32.720 --> 00:35:33.280
 for you

00:35:33.280 --> 00:35:35.099
 and served

00:35:35.099 --> 00:35:35.420
 you.

00:35:35.420 --> 00:35:37.900
 I have

00:35:37.900 --> 00:35:38.420
 set an

00:35:38.420 --> 00:35:38.940
 example

00:35:38.940 --> 00:35:40.380
 that you

00:35:40.380 --> 00:35:41.059
 should do

00:35:41.059 --> 00:35:42.380
 as I

00:35:42.380 --> 00:35:42.940
 have done

00:35:42.940 --> 00:35:43.840
 for you.

00:35:46.840 --> 00:35:47.820
 So what

00:35:47.820 --> 00:35:48.260
 does this

00:35:48.260 --> 00:35:49.119
 text teach

00:35:49.119 --> 00:35:49.519
 us?

00:35:51.260 --> 00:35:51.920
 Well very

00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:52.460
 simply

00:35:52.460 --> 00:35:53.900
 Jesus

00:35:53.900 --> 00:35:54.659
 showed his

00:35:54.659 --> 00:35:55.159
 love to

00:35:55.159 --> 00:35:55.639
 us

00:35:55.639 --> 00:35:57.119
 by becoming

00:35:57.119 --> 00:35:57.760
 a servant

00:35:57.760 --> 00:35:59.659
 to wash

00:35:59.659 --> 00:36:00.380
 us clean

00:36:00.380 --> 00:36:02.280
 and to

00:36:02.280 --> 00:36:02.660
 give us

00:36:02.660 --> 00:36:03.140
 a way

00:36:03.140 --> 00:36:04.340
 that we

00:36:04.340 --> 00:36:05.200
 might serve

00:36:05.200 --> 00:36:05.900
 one another

00:36:05.900 --> 00:36:07.140
 in humble

00:36:07.140 --> 00:36:07.599
 love.

00:36:09.500 --> 00:36:10.300
 Let's just

00:36:10.300 --> 00:36:10.720
 take a

00:36:10.720 --> 00:36:11.280
 moment in

00:36:11.280 --> 00:36:12.160
 the quietness

00:36:12.160 --> 00:36:13.940
 to reflect

00:36:13.940 --> 00:36:14.400
 on what

00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:14.940
 we've just

00:36:14.940 --> 00:36:15.400
 heard.

00:36:20.519 --> 00:36:21.300
 Let us

00:36:21.300 --> 00:36:22.240
 give thanks

00:36:22.240 --> 00:36:23.920
 to the

00:36:23.920 --> 00:36:24.860
 Lord Jesus

00:36:24.860 --> 00:36:26.800
 the God

00:36:26.800 --> 00:36:27.280
 man

00:36:27.280 --> 00:36:29.340
 who came

00:36:29.340 --> 00:36:29.940
 to serve

00:36:29.940 --> 00:36:30.500
 us

00:36:30.500 --> 00:36:32.099
 and give

00:36:32.099 --> 00:36:32.639
 his life

00:36:32.639 --> 00:36:33.460
 for us.

00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:37.720
 Ask

00:36:37.720 --> 00:36:39.320
 that the

00:36:39.320 --> 00:36:39.860
 Lord would

00:36:39.860 --> 00:36:40.519
 give us

00:36:40.519 --> 00:36:41.200
 the right

00:36:41.200 --> 00:36:41.800
 mindset

00:36:41.800 --> 00:36:42.780
 every day

00:36:42.780 --> 00:36:44.579
 as we

00:36:44.579 --> 00:36:45.300
 see how

00:36:45.300 --> 00:36:45.760
 Jesus

00:36:45.760 --> 00:36:46.900
 cleaned us

00:36:46.900 --> 00:36:48.559
 that we

00:36:48.559 --> 00:36:49.240
 too may

00:36:49.240 --> 00:36:49.880
 serve

00:36:49.880 --> 00:36:51.200
 one another.

00:37:16.119 --> 00:37:17.400

00:37:19.159 --> 00:37:19.639
 on the

00:37:19.639 --> 00:37:20.400
 role of a

00:37:20.400 --> 00:37:20.960
 servant

00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:23.679
 for dying

00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:24.400
 our

00:37:24.400 --> 00:37:24.960
 death

00:37:24.960 --> 00:37:27.699
 for being

00:37:27.699 --> 00:37:28.480
 mocked

00:37:28.480 --> 00:37:30.199
 and beaten

00:37:30.199 --> 00:37:32.900
 becoming

00:37:32.900 --> 00:37:33.500
 nothing

00:37:33.500 --> 00:37:35.840

00:37:35.840 --> 00:37:36.240
 would be

00:37:36.240 --> 00:37:36.679
 washed

00:37:36.679 --> 00:37:37.159
 clean.

00:37:44.579 --> 00:37:45.019

00:37:45.019 --> 00:37:45.559
 our eyes

00:37:45.559 --> 00:37:46.500
 fixed on

00:37:46.500 --> 00:37:46.940
 the Lord

00:37:46.940 --> 00:37:47.379
 Jesus

00:37:47.379 --> 00:37:49.619
 so that

00:37:49.619 --> 00:37:50.219
 we too

00:37:50.219 --> 00:37:50.799

00:37:50.799 --> 00:37:51.980

00:37:51.980 --> 00:37:52.819
 serve one

00:37:52.819 --> 00:37:53.420
 another in

00:37:53.420 --> 00:37:53.779
 love

00:37:53.779 --> 00:37:56.339
 recognizing

00:37:56.339 --> 00:37:57.219
 that not

00:37:57.219 --> 00:37:57.679
 one of

00:37:57.679 --> 00:37:58.079
 us

00:37:58.079 --> 00:37:59.899
 is above

00:37:59.899 --> 00:38:00.399
 the role

00:38:00.399 --> 00:38:01.000
 of servant

00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:03.340
 and not

00:38:03.340 --> 00:38:03.719
 one of

00:38:03.719 --> 00:38:04.199
 us is

00:38:04.199 --> 00:38:04.679
 below

00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:06.039
 ever being

00:38:06.039 --> 00:38:06.599
 served.

00:38:10.800 --> 00:38:11.420
 Please

00:38:11.420 --> 00:38:12.079
 help us

00:38:12.079 --> 00:38:13.800

00:38:13.800 --> 00:38:14.760
 to serve

00:38:14.760 --> 00:38:15.260
 each other

00:38:15.260 --> 00:38:15.820
 in love.

00:38:16.820 --> 00:38:17.460
 Amen.

00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:22.780
 Well we're

00:38:22.780 --> 00:38:23.019
 going to

00:38:23.019 --> 00:38:23.880
 sing together

00:38:23.880 --> 00:38:26.559
 and I

00:38:26.559 --> 00:38:26.980
 think we

00:38:26.980 --> 00:38:27.500

00:38:29.159 --> 00:38:29.480
 again

00:38:29.480 --> 00:38:30.079
 because

00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:31.360
 it captures

00:38:31.360 --> 00:38:33.019
 exactly what

00:38:33.019 --> 00:38:33.500
 the Lord

00:38:33.500 --> 00:38:33.920
