A comment from Rev

I took this comment of the rev from Signposts...

Jesus washed his disciples feet. Do you know what that means in a time of open sandals? Of walking great distance over dirt roads? In a time without urinals? This was a job that even a slave was allowed to resist if he was a Roman citizen because it was the lowest of lows, and unworthy of any citizen of Rome. And said, “I do this to show you that I as your Lord serve you, so you should serve each other” Does this charectorize the leadership in the Pentecostal church in Australia, or specifically xxxxxxx?

How does driving around in luxury cars, flying first class, owning multiple expensive homes, and basically my way or the highway leadership mentality reflect Jesus? And if it does not reflect Jesus, why are they leaders? Worldly leaders do these things, but the church is supposed to be different, the first should be last, the greatest should be the servant of all.
