Jesus said "Follow me and I will make you fisher of men".
Jesus is the only one that asked people to follow Him. Most will ask to follow their teaching only Jesus said follow me.
My father used to say, follow what I said but don't follow what I do. This is basically saying I cannot be accountable to what I said because I myself cannot do it even though I know it is good. Therefore I can give you sound and good advice but I cannot be an example for you to follow or show you how...
Does it sound like most of us?
Thank God my heavenly Father is not like that. Instead He shown us all who He is. He said the word and His word never return to Him in void.
Therefore my Father in heaven is trustworthy and whatever He said is the truth.
Philippians 2:7- 11 (NKJV)
but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knees should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Jesus is fully man while he was on Earth.
Therefore we are able to live like Him, walk like Him and hold ourselves in obedient to God even to the point of death like Him.
Don't ever sin and expect God to understand...
Jesus did not die so that we can live in sin.
His abundant grace and mercy will convict us of our sin.
He came so that we can have life and life abundantly.
By His grace, we can live as sons and daughters of God.
By His mercy, our sins are forgiven.
Come to repentance and change your ways by obeying God first and not your flesh.
John 14:27 (NKJV)
Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Let God's peace be your guide.
Numbers 6:24-26 (NKJV)
"The LORD bless you and keep you;
The LORD make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace."
God bless :-)
