| AND YET ; THE MESSAGE IS THERE | |
| John 13 | |
| New International Version (NIV) | |
| Jesus Washes His Disciples� Feet | |
| 13 It was just before the Passover Festival.(A) Jesus knew that | |
| the hour had come(B) for him to leave this world and go to the | |
| Father.(C) Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved | |
| them to the end. | |
| 2 The evening meal was in progress, and the devil had already | |
| prompted Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus.(D) 3 | |
| Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his | |
| power,(E) and that he had come from God(F) and was returning to | |
| God; 4 so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, | |
| and wrapped a towel around his waist.(G) 5 After that, he poured | |
| water into a basin and began to wash his disciples� feet,(H) | |
| drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him. | |
| 6 He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, �Lord, are you going | |
| to wash my feet?� | |
| 7 Jesus replied, �You do not realize now what I am doing, but | |
| later you will understand.�(I) | |
| 8 �No,� said Peter, �you shall never wash my feet.� | |
| Jesus answered, �Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.� | |
| 9 �Then, Lord,� Simon Peter replied, �not just my feet but my | |
| hands and my head as well!� | |
| 10 Jesus answered, �Those who have had a bath need only to wash | |
| their feet; their whole body is clean. And you are clean,(J) | |
| though not every one of you.�(K) 11 For he knew who was going to | |
| betray him,(L) and that was why he said not every one was clean. | |
| 12 When he had finished washing their feet, he put on his | |
| clothes and returned to his place. �Do you understand what I | |
| have done for you?� he asked them. 13 �You call me �Teacher�(M) | |
| and �Lord,�(N) and rightly so, for that is what I am. 14 Now | |
| that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also | |
| should wash one another�s feet.(O) 15 I have set you an example | |
| that you should do as I have done for you.(P) 16 Very truly I | |
| tell you, no servant is greater than his master,(Q) nor is a | |
| messenger greater than the one who sent him. 17 Now that you | |
| know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.(R) | |
| SO DO YOU THINK PETER UNDERSTOOD? | |
| DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS MESSAGE? | |
| [color=green]WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH "US" TODAY? | |
| Jesus answered, �Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.� | |
| SHALL WE NOW TALK OF; | |
| * THE PROTESTANT MOVEMENT; | |
| * THE ROMAN CATHOLIC WAY; | |
| * THE TRADITIONS OF THE ORTHODOX? | |
| * | |
| THE BETTER QUESTION IS; should we have this talk before or after | |
| we get our feet washed? | |
| so ; do you understand or like in the examples above ; do you | |
| agree that many {didn't/don't} understand? | |
