Service to Others

In everything, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus Himself: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

For you, brothers, were called to freedom; but do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh. Rather, serve one another in love.

As good stewards of the manifold grace of God, each of you should use whatever gift he has received to serve one another.

…and whoever wants to be first must be the slave of all.

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”

And whatever you do, in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.

Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “If anyone wants to be first, he must be the last of all and the servant of all.”

A generous soul will prosper, and he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.

For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life.

The greatest among you shall be your servant.

Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.”
