Began To Wash His Disciples' Feet

John 13:5 – 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.

Philippians 2:5-7 – In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.

Application:

• ·         “Began to wash His disciples’ feet” was a menial task, normally performed by a servant.
• ·         In spite of all that is unique and radically different about the person and work of Christ, Christians are to have His attitude of self-sacrificing humility and love for others.
• ·         As a servant, Jesus was always submissive to the will of the Father.
