Hard Truths From Christ: 
What do you value?

Luke 14:11 (ESV)
"For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.” 


Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “Our goal is to create a beloved community and this will require a qualitative change in our souls as well as a quantitative change in our lives.”
 
Who do you value? We can look at this seating honor system and be confused or feel lost. The idea of people belonging to the lower cast does not seem to work in today's modern democratic society. Almost every church says all are welcomed and says they are welcoming of others.  Yet at the same time, we still have our own ways of having people we don’t want to deal with. People that we look down upon. Even if we say we don’t we end up just ignoring them when they are around us.
 
Jesus said Don't give dinner to your friends or family and rich neighbors. Rather invite people you wouldn’t associate with. When we realize that he did it for us, we see there is no reason we can't do it as his people.
