Do You Want To Follow Christ?

Luke 9

23 Then he said to the crowd, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross daily, and follow me. 24 If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it. 25 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but are yourself lost or destroyed?”


So, do you really want to be a Christ follower? Give up your selfish ways, be willing to die daily for His sake, stop trying to hang on to the stuff of this world, and devote yourself to His ways. Jesus doesn’t pull any punches, and He is not interested in half-hearted disciples. Give it all to Jesus or don’t bother.
