That was the crown JESUS wore . I want us to look closely at that crown .
And then remember the servant is not above His Lord .
It is good that that the servant simply be as his Lord .
Remember that JESUS never had more money , more clothes , more riches than even his own desciples .
He did all for the sake of the children , of the brethren .
I think many leaders , as well as many others , have long forgotten the simplicity in Christ .
We have far too many walking with golden crowns and lording over the flocks
and not rather as being ensamples to the flocks .
For the parents ought to lay up for the children . Yet many seek the goods of the children and have waxen rich off
the children . Let us remember some of pauls last written words as well
For i seek not yours , but You . The prosperity gospel preaches know this not for they seek
wealth from the children and not the well being of said children . YET remember
JESUS never rode in a special chariot of gold . He walked right along side the desciples .
AND HE suffered massive for the peoples . He has made us kings and priests
and yet many forgot how the TRUE KING and TRUE PRIEST actually walked while upon the earth .
SO i say to all the kings and priests , walk lowly and humble and do all for the sake of others .
And heap not up treasures upon this earth . Have them stored above and be walking as did our Lord .

For i have not come to call the righteous , but sinner to repentance .
And who is righteous , there is none righteous , no , not one . Cept GOD ,cept JESUS , THUS ALL NEED THE GLORIOUS SAVOIR JESUS to be saved .
They needed to go and learn that they themselves were great sinners in need
of the ONE KING JESUS whom the others sinners had run too and yet THEY HAD NOT . for they saw themselves as righteous
and in no need of said savoir . That is the lesson of the day and the hour .
