Who Is The Greatest? Really?

Jesus explained to the disciples that He would soon be going to the cross to accomplish our amazing rescue from sin and death. You would think that this would have consumed all their thoughts and every bit of their conversation. However, as Mark tells us, not only was their own greatness a topic for conversation, it was something that they even argued about it with each other. And yet, before we shake a finger at the disciples, look at how easy it for us to think of God’s kingdom in similar carnal terms.
