We Are Servants

Part 5 - We Are

September 29, 2018 • Matt Rosenberg

We Are Servants is part 5 of We Are. /// We are servants and we serve God by serving others. The opposite of serving others is found in the story of Jonah in the Bible. Jonah is a prophet but a bad one who only thinks of himself. He begrudgingly does what God commands him to do only after he runs away and then does the bare minimum. Jonah is awful. So why is his story in the Bible? Because you're awful too! Jonah is an example of what not to be but Yeshua, our Messiah, is the exact opposite. With all the power in the universe He came down into creation to offer Himself as a sacrifice for awful people. We want to follow Yeshua's example and serve people like Him. We serve God by serving others. It's who we are!
