SERES: READY, SET, SERVE!
Jesus is fully aware of the horrific events that are about to unfold over the next several hours, and the agonizing suffering that he would endure. This is the last time before the cross, that He would be together with his disciples for a meal, as they celebrate the Passover, and he uses this as an occasion to demonstrate what life in His Kingdom is all about.
Just prior to this, the disciples had been arguing about who would be greatest in His kingdom, and they wanted dibs to sit on his right hand and on his left. But now Jesus by example and explanation issues a call to servanthood, and says that to be a servant is what it truly means to follow Him, to be a Christian, to be like Him. It is not something the disciples wanted to hear then, and it is still not something that the church, those that claim to follow Christ, want to hear today
