11. Those who rise to the top from the bottom, are loved more by the public than those born at the top. Conceited people will trip over their own egos, falling from the love of the public. The humble at heart, one’s without ego, are easy to love, for they don’t see themselves as better than anyone else. 11. Matthew 23:11-12 11. the more lowly your service to others, the greater you are. To be the greatest, be a servant. 12. But those who think themselves great shall be disappointed and humbled; and those who humble themselves shall be exalted. 12. What does it matter if you are beautiful, rich, or have high status if your spirit and personality and all secrets within are filled with hatred and sin? Before perfecting your outer life, first perfect your spirit. Then, your spirit will radiate it’s inner beauty into your everyday life, thus attracting the “true” perfect outer (physical world) life. 12. Matthew 23: 25-26 25. You are so careful to polish the outside of the cup, but the inside is foul with extortion and greed. 26. Blind Pharisees! First cleanse the inside of the cup, and then the whole cup will be clean. 13. Question: Who is first in your life? If God is not first in your life, if you do not ask him for guidance in everything you say or do, then your life will be ridden with worry. Worry over money, tomorrow, the next day. If you trust God and listen to him every moment (that inner voice, part of your conscience), you will live in the knowledge that God will take care of you. God will lead you to where you will have what you need to survive. God will compel people to help you if you are in need of help. If there is no one willing to do God’s bidding, God will lead you away from where you stand to another place where you will be welcomed by those who God controls. 13. Matthew 6:31-32 31, 32 So don’t worry at all about having enough food and clothing. Why be like the heathen? For they take pride in all these things and are deeply concerned about them. But your heavenly Father already knows perfectly well that you need them. 33. and he will give them to you if you give him first place in your life and live as he wants you

Page 1: WHAT DID JESUS SAY? What It Means To Follow Jesus (adult reader)

11. Those who rise to the top from the bottom, are loved more by the public than those born at the top. Conceited people will trip over their own egos, falling from the love of the public. The humble at heart, one’s without ego, are easy to love, for they don’t see themselves as better than anyone else.

11.

Matthew 23:11-12

11. the more lowly your service to others, the greater you are. To be the greatest, be a servant. 12. But those who think themselves great shall be disappointed and humbled; and those who humble themselves shall be exalted.

12. What does it matter if you are beautiful, rich, or have high status if your spirit and personality and all secrets within are filled with hatred and sin? Before perfecting your outer life, first perfect your spirit. Then, your spirit will radiate it’s inner beauty into your everyday life, thus attracting the “true” perfect outer (physical world) life.

12.

Matthew 23: 25-26

25. You are so careful to polish the outside of the cup, but the inside is foul with extortion and greed. 26. Blind Pharisees! First cleanse the inside of the cup, and then the whole cup will be clean.

13. Question: Who is first in your life? If God is not first in your life, if you do not ask him for guidance in everything you say or do, then your life will be ridden with worry. Worry over money, tomorrow, the next day. If you trust God and listen to him every moment (that inner voice, part of your conscience), you will live in the knowledge that God will take care of you. God will lead you to where you will have what you need to survive. God will compel people to help you if you are in need of help. If there is no one willing to do God’s bidding, God will lead you away from where you stand to another place where you will be welcomed by those who God controls.

13.

Matthew 6:31-32

31, 32 So don’t worry at all about having enough food and clothing. Why be like the heathen? For they take pride in all these things and are deeply concerned about them. But your heavenly Father already knows perfectly well that you need them. 33. and he will give them to you if you give him first place in your life and live as he wants you
