FOLLOW JESUS AS I FOLLOW JESUS

Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ. —I Corinthians 11:1

             This is a pretty clear statement of what we are to be doing.  Look at Paul’s example.  As he followed Christ, so we are to follow his example of following Christ.  Wow… that is an amazing statement from Paul.  I wonder… can I encourage others to follow Jesus as I am following Jesus?  Or, would I not want people to follow my example because of my distant relationship and lack of faithfulness to Jesus?  Paul had no problem saying “Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ” because he was seeking to follow our Lord with as a lifestyle and sought to reach others that they in turn would be the example and reach others as well who would keep that DNA going (II Timothy 2:2).  Are we being that type example?  May it be so, Dear Father, by the power of Your Holy Spirit and in the authority of Your Son Jesus.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8Sx_U0Ztr8&list=RDo8Sx_U0Ztr8&start_radio=1
