Other people first, self last.

Mark 9:30-50
Welcome one of these little children in my name welcomes me. Welcome me does not welcome me but the one who sent me.
Whoever is not against us is for us.
reward: given a cup of water in Jesus name to one belong to Christ.
Don't cause one of these little ones who believe in Jesus to sin, it will cause you be thrown into hell.
Hell: their worm does not die, ad the fire is not quenched.
Salt: Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness how can you make it salty again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with each other.
Why?
Do the right thing even it is very little and welcome the needy people or guest for it is well to treat others.
We, Christian is salt, prevent the spoil and make each other peace. If we lost our saltiness we are not follower of Jesus.
No one who is preoccupied with selfish ambition can become a great Christian.
It has to be other people first, self last.
It is better deliberately to limit personal self-fulfillment, even to go handicapped through life, than miss God's kingdom altogether.
How?
I was selfish man, even now I am still a little selfish, O Lord, forgive my sin, and remind me, fill me with new life, get rid of my selfish and transform my life to be a welcome man. Always think other people first and self last.
