Follow Jesus

John 1:27

27 He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe’s latchet I am not worthy to unloose.

John 1:43

The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me.

As a preacher or a teacher, people think they should follow us. So many will talk about how they follow what their pastor is teaching them, but they seldom say their pastor told them to follow Christ. I will be the first minister to tell you that I am not even worthy to wash Jesus Christ shoes. What he has done for the sinner, I can never do a fraction of. He shed his blood to give us eternal life. That is a gift that can never be repaid. If you look at me to lead you into heaven, I cannot. I can only preach you the word as god directs me to do. I can tell you about a man named Jesus who gave his life so you could gain your life. I can help you learn the right walk with him, but if you are looking for someone to follow to make it to heaven, follow Jesus Christ and not man.
