Jesus repeatedly emphasized the importance of humility and service through His words and parables—teachings that are recorded throughout the Bible. When His disciples asked who would be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven, Jesus answered, “Whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+18%3A1-4&version=NIV |title=Matthew 18:1–4 |publisher= |quote= }}</ref> Through parables, He also taught that those who humble themselves will be exalted. In the parable of the [[The Pharisee|Pharisee]] and the tax collector who went up to the [[temple]] to pray, the Pharisee boasted of his own righteousness, while the tax collector humbly confessed his sins and sought forgiveness. Jesus said that the tax collector, not the Pharisee, went home justified before God, teaching that “whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.” <ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+18%3A9-14&version=NIV |title=Luke 18:9–14 |publisher= |quote= }}</ref>

Jesus not only taught humility and service through words but also demonstrated them through His own actions. A clear example is the [[Foot-Washing Ceremony]], which took place before the Holy Supper of the Passover. On that day, Jesus Himself washed the feet of His disciples—a task usually performed by servants or those of low social status.<ref>John W.
