Manage episode 509079011 series 3307800
Main text: Matthew 18:1-4 (ESV) 1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” 2 And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them 3 and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Preaching Point: We must remember that in God’s House, the greatest are not ranked by their accolades or how fast they climb the ladder, but by how much they humble themselves in the name of Christ.
Teaching Points:
- Stop Thinking You’re Better Than the Next Christian (V. 1)
- Understand the Terms for Joining God’s Household (VV. 2-3)
- Excel in Displaying Christlike Humility (V. 4)
