@Jellani @Br. Bear
I thank Br. Bear for adding the last post, I too felt uncomfortable being called sir.
Do not take offence dear sister, I am sure it is your culture that you call people sir, but our Lord says
Matthew 23:12 (NKJV)
12 And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.
The word sir is a word when we look up to people, nothing wrong in that, but I do agree with Br, Bear we are servants and we are probably not as good a servants as we should be.
The scripture quoted is a double edge sword, we are not to think ourselves great, but if we humble ourselves we are made great or exalted.
We are humble, but we are humble servants.
Peace be with you sister
