Follow Me

1. The call of Christ and the supremacy of Christ. • John 3:3 • The first step in the Christian life is in obedience to those two words. • And the whole pathway of the Christian life is traveled in obedience to those two words. 2. The fact that difficulties present themselves to the minds of many, which are very real and definite, but there is a decision that must be made - BUT...People who are attracted to Jesus, who admire all they know about Jesus, who are conscious of their own need and His ability to supply their need, who in their deepest heart intend to follow Him, but... -The claims of Christ are such, and the power of Christ is such that everything that comes after that "but" needs to be put out of your life. -I will follow you Lord, but... -When Jesus says, "Follow me," He demands submission of the whole being, and from that moment we don't get ahead of Him, we go after Him. -Do you remember the last time Jesus said "Follow me?" -To be outside the Kingdom is to be without everything that gives life its fullness in the present and its hope for the future.
