The Kings Instructions - Matt 18 Be Humble – 18:1-20! ‘Unless you be like a child you won’t even get into the kingdom, let alone be great in the kingdom’ – v3

The Kings Instructions - Matt 18 Be Humble – 18:1-20! ‘Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to.’ Philippians 2:3f [NLT]

The Kings Instructions - Matt 18 Be Humble – 18:1-20! ‘Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.’ Ephesians 4:29

The Kings Instructions - Matt 18 Be Humble – 18:1-20! Be willing to forgive (and to accept blame where necessary!) – 18:15-31 70 x 7! (Keep on forgiving) Since that God has forgiven us, completely and countless times, we should forgive others in the same way.
