The Son of Man Came to Serve


Matthew 20:17-34

Key Verse 20:28


…just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.


Read verses 17-19. Why was Jesus going to Jerusalem? Why do you think he told his disciples what was about to happen? What do you learn about Jesus here?


Read verses 20-21. Why do you think James and John's mother made this request? What does this request show about these two disciples of Jesus?


Read verses 22-23. Why did Jesus say that they didn't know what they were asking? What was the "cup" Jesus was going to drink? What does this show about greatness in the kingdom of heaven? What does their answer show about them? What did Jesus promise, and not promise, them?


Read verses 24-28. How did the other disciples respond when they heard about this? What does this show about them? How did Jesus deal with this situation? What does worldly greatness look like? What does greatness in the kingdom of God look like? How did Jesus set the example of greatness for us?


Read verses 29-34. What happened as they were leaving Jericho? What obstacles did the blind men overcome to seek Jesus' help? How did Jesus respond to their calls? What did they do after they were healed?
