Bible Question: Why is foot washing ignored as Jesus taught in John 13:14 ? |
Bible Answer: Dear justme It appears with this story of feet washing, that Jesus was speaking about being washed clean, through the sacrifice that would be made for them, (and us), more than a direct teaching, that they should wash each others feet. Or even that foot washing should become a doctrine for us to follow. He was also expressing to them that they should become servants, not esteeming themselves to highly, humbling themselves. There are some churches that do practice it as a way of keeping themselves humble, but the practice only takes place with the pastor, elders, deacons. Does this help Yen |
