JESUS REVEALS 3 QUALIFICATIONS OF GREATNESS IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN

MARK 9:35 “IF ANYONE WANTS TO BE FIRST, HE SHALL BE LAST OF ALL, AND SERVANT OF ALL.” Here’s 2 of them

1 DESIRE (wish) I Tim 3:1 – If any man seeks the pastorate He lusts after a good work.

2 HUMBLE MINISTRY LIKE PAUL and APOLLOS I Cor 4:9 ff

Jesus shows ministry to the least is greatest

If you truly want to do great things for the Lord, ministering to the least is the best way!

3 GREAT CAUTION ““WHOEVER RECEIVES ONE CHILD LIKE THIS IN MY NAME RECEIVES ME; AND WHOEVER RECEIVES ME DOES NOT RECEIVE ME, BUT HIM WHO SENT ME.”” MARK 9:37, NASB95

A “RECEIVE” MEANS TO WELCOME B SERVING CHILDREN IS SERVING THE LORD HIMSELF IN THE PERSON OF A CHILD. C. ALL THE GOSPEL ACCOUNTS GIVE THE SAME WARNINGS ABOUT SERIOUS REPERCUSIONS IN DEALING WITH "HIS CHILDREN"
