In these rest all of the law."Mark 10:42-45 And Jesus called them to him and said to them, "You know that those who are considered rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done to you.

Let each of you look not only to his own in" rel="nofollow">interests, but also to the in" rel="nofollow">interests of others. Have this min" rel="nofollow">ind among yourselves, which is yours in" rel="nofollow">in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in" rel="nofollow">in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thin" rel="nofollow">ing to be grasped, but made himself nothin" rel="nofollow">ing, takin" rel="nofollow">ing the form of a servant, bein" rel="nofollow">ing born in" rel="nofollow">in the likeness of men. ... Hebrews 13:7 Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God.
