According to the Christian Holy Bible, God made all people in His image;[59] therefore, humanity has many characteristics and responsibilities to God, to humanity, and to the earth. One responsibility toward humanity is to help other people who are in need, and to not let people suffer, as far as it is possible. Christians look to their Savior, Jesus, who came to earth to serve, as their role model. For this reason, Christians use service-learning experiences to become better community members. To them, service-learning is not just a moral activity; it is a way to serve God by serving other people.
The first commandment that Jesus gave in the Holy Bible was to “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind.” The second is like it, “Love your neighbor as yourself.”[60] Then Jesus said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.”[61] Jesus instructs those who love him, to obey him. To obey him, they must love him and love others. A very practical way to show love to other people is by acts of service. “Jesus gave a simple but profound illustration of expressing love by an act of service when He washed the feet of His disciples. In a culture where people wore sandals and walked on dirt streets, it was customary for the servant of the house to wash the feet of guests as they arrived.”[62] In this Bible passage describing when Jesus washed his disciple’s feet, Christians learn that they must serve others like Jesus served his disciples.[63] The significance of the historical importance of what Jesus did is the fact that usually servants wash the mud-caked feet of guests. Because Jesus got down on his knees to wash the feet of his followers, it shows Christians that they must be humble and considerate to show love through service. Christians who choose to do a Service-learning project are obeying Jesus by serving others.
