Who among you is the greatest of all these? These are the martyrs’ that have come on home to be with Me. They have fought a good fight and they finished their race well.

My people you must at all cost cleanse the inside of the cup. The enemy does not have to listen to a word you say as long as the inside of the cup is dirty.

So much self-deception in My Body. So many not able to fight the enemy because of hidden sins. Deception is running rampant all through the Body. Take up your cross and follow Me – means lay aside those sins that so easily beset you. It means walk in Holiness. It means obey My Commandments at all cost. It means to Love unconditionally. I could go on and on; but you see what I am saying.

TAKE UP YOUR CROSS AND FOLLOW ME DAILY!

Luke 22:24-30 (NKJV)
24 Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest.
25 And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’
26 But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves.
27 For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves.
28 But you are those who have continued with Me in My trials.
29 And I bestow upon you a kingdom, just as My Father bestowed one upon Me,
30 that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

Matthew 23:25-28 (NKJV)
25 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of extortion and self-indulgence.
26 Blind Pharisee, first cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also.
27 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness.
28 Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
