Matthew Chapter 20:25

But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.

Matthew Chapter 20:26

But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;

Matthew Chapter 20:27

And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:

Matthew Chapter 20:28

Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

Mark Chapter 9:35

And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.

Mark Chapter 10:42

But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.

Mark Chapter 10:43

But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister:

Mark Chapter 10:44

And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.

Mark Chapter 10:45

For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

Luke Chapter 22:27

For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

John Chapter 12:26

If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

John Chapter 13:1

Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.

John Chapter 13:2

And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;

John Chapter 13:3

Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;

John Chapter 13:4

He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.

John Chapter 13:5

After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.

John Chapter 13:6

Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

John Chapter 13:7

Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.

John Chapter 13:8

Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

John Chapter 13:9

Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.

John Chapter 13:10

Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.

John Chapter 13:11

For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.

John Chapter 13:12

So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?

John Chapter 13:13

Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.

John Chapter 13:14

If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.

John Chapter 13:15

For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.

John Chapter 13:16

Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.

John Chapter 13:17

If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

John Chapter 13:18

I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.

John Chapter 13:19

Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.

John Chapter 13:20

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

John Chapter 13:21

When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

John Chapter 13:22

Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.

John Chapter 13:23

Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.

John Chapter 13:24

Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.

John Chapter 13:25

He then lying on Jesus' breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?

John Chapter 13:26

Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

John Chapter 13:27

And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

John Chapter 13:28

Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.

John Chapter 13:29

For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.

John Chapter 13:30

He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.

John Chapter 13:31

Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.

John Chapter 13:32

If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.

John Chapter 13:33

Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.

John Chapter 13:34

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

John Chapter 13:35

By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

John Chapter 13:36

Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.

John Chapter 13:37

Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.

John Chapter 13:38

Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.

Ephesians Chapter 5:21

Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

Philippians Chapter 2:1

If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,

Philippians Chapter 2:2

Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

Philippians Chapter 2:3

Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

Philippians Chapter 2:4

Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

Philippians Chapter 2:5

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

Philippians Chapter 2:6

Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

Philippians Chapter 2:7

But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

Philippians Chapter 2:8

And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

Philippians Chapter 2:9

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

Philippians Chapter 2:10

That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

Philippians Chapter 2:11

And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Philippians Chapter 2:12

Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

Philippians Chapter 2:13

For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

Philippians Chapter 2:14

Do all things without murmurings and disputings:

Philippians Chapter 2:15

That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

Philippians Chapter 2:16

Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.

Philippians Chapter 2:17

Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.

Philippians Chapter 2:18

For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me.

Philippians Chapter 2:19

But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.

Philippians Chapter 2:20

For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.

Philippians Chapter 2:21

For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.

Philippians Chapter 2:22

But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel.

Philippians Chapter 2:23

Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.

Philippians Chapter 2:24

But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.

Philippians Chapter 2:25

Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labour, and fellowsoldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.

Philippians Chapter 2:26

For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that ye had heard that he had been sick.

Philippians Chapter 2:27

For indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.

Philippians Chapter 2:28

I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.

Philippians Chapter 2:29

Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:

Philippians Chapter 2:30

Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.

Colossians Chapter 3:17

And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

1 Peter Chapter 2:16

As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
