"For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many." (Mark 10:45) The sermon centers on the redemptive mission of Jesus Christ as the suffering servant who willingly bore betrayal, endured suffering, and gave His life as a ransom for the many, fulfilling divine prophecy from Isaiah 53 and the foreknowledge of His passion in Mark 10. It emphasizes that true discipleship is defined not by ambition or self-gain, but by humble servanthood, modeled by Christ who came not to be served but to serve and give His life for others. The message confronts the self-centeredness of human nature, calling believers to reject worldly values of power and status in favor of sacrificial love, obedience, and trust in God's sovereign plan. Through the lens of Christ's substitutionary sacrifice, the sermon affirms that salvation is a divine act of grace, purchased by Christ's blood, intended for all who believe, and calling each follower to a life of self-denial and service. Ultimately, the cross is not a symbol of defeat but of victory, where the servant becomes the Savior, and the many are redeemed through His willing obedience.
