PASSAGE: Jesus Washes His Disciples' Feet, Jesus Predicts His Betrayal, Jesus Predicts Peter's Denial
MEMORY VERSE: "He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God." -Micah 6:8
NOTES: (v.1-17) At the Passover Feast, Jesus knew that it was almost time for him to leave this world, and that Judas Iscariot would betray him. He got up and began to wash his disciples' feet. When he came to Simon Peter, he initially refused to let Jesus wash his feet, but Jesus said, "Unless I wash you, you have no part with me." Then Simon asked him to wash his hands and head as well, and Jesus replied, "A person who has a bath needs only to wash his feet; his whole body is clean."
Jesus washed the disciples' feet to set an example, so that we will wash one another's feet.
-(v.18-30) Jesus predicts that one of the disciples will betray him. When Jesus gave Judas the piece of dipped bread, Satan entered into him, and Jesus said, "What you are about to do, do quickly."
-(v.30-38) As Jesus knew that He had little time left with them, he gave them a new commandment: "Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this, all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
Peter claims that he will lay down his life for Jesus, but Jesus answers him by predicting that Peter will betray him three times before the rooster crows.
ACT OF LOVE: At church, I had gotten one of the chocolate drizzle rice krispies welcome room, but I didnt eat it right away. Later, my friend went to go look for a rice krispy, but they were all gone. So I gave her mine, because it's the best tasting (in my opinion) type of rice krispy!
