When Jesus knew it was his last time to train his disciples, he started their training with foot washing.
He gets up out of his place as the guest of honor, and he puts on a towel, picks up a basin, and begins to wash their feet. We’ve seen that this has symbolism that tells us who Jesus is. We look now at how it tells us what he came to give us: his salvation.
We learn here that 1) we have a deep problem, 2) there’s a twofold cure, and 3) why and how we can get it.
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on October 16, 2016. Series: Jesus, Mission, and Glory: New Purpose. Scripture: John 13:6-11.
