Bible Question:
WHO was Jesus serving? Some Scriptures come to mind: Choose this day WHO you will serve (Josh 24:15). . . You cannot serve God and mammon (Mt 6:24). . . I have come to do your will, Oh God. (Heb 10:7-10) Is service to others the same as service to God? When is it different? Is it important for believers to be aware of this? |
Bible Answer: 1 John 4:20 "If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen." |
