COME, FOLLOW ME

This past Sunday, Pastor Jeff delivered a profound Easter message about the necessity of following Jesus.  We may not realize that sometimes, even though we profess to be Christians, our patterns of living are much different than Jesus and his Word.  We are following someone or something else.  This is why our relationship with God is lacking because “followship begets fellowship.” Such was the case with the disciple Peter.  Though his denial of Christ hindered their relationship, God knew he needed to restore him (John 21:15-19). Therefore Jesus “reached” to Peter in the middle of his mess.  1 John 4:10 This is love: not that we loved, God but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.  Jesus paid the full price for our sins of yesterday, today and forever so that we could answer Him appropriately when he calls us.  Our aim, to follow Him!
