THE SONS OF ZEBEDEE: JAMES AND JOHN

James Edwards

The reason why a servant is the most preeminent position in the kingdom of God is that the sole function of a servant is to give, and giving is the essence of God.

Philippians 2:1–2 (ESV)

So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind.

Philippians 2:3–8 (ESV)

Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

Isaiah 50:7 (ESV)

therefore I have set my face like a flint,

and I know that I shall not be put to shame.

Hebrews 12:2 (ESV)

looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

Mark 8:31 (ESV)

And he began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes and be killed, and after three days rise again.

Mark 9:31 (ESV)

The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him. And when he is killed, after three days he will rise.

A Might Fortress (Martin Luther)

Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing

Were not the right Man on our side, the Man of God’s own choosing

Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He

The Lord of hosts His name, from age to age the same

And He must win the battle

Mark 10:14 (ESV)

Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.

Mark 8:35

whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel’s will save it.

Mark 9:35

If anyone would be first, he must be last of all and servant of all.

Mark 9:40–41

For the one who is not against us is for us. For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ will by no means lose his reward.

Mark 10:15

Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.

Mark 10:31

But many who are first will be last, and the last first.

Mark 10:45

For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.
