The Call to Build and Battle

Last week, we looked at Jesus’ favorite term in connection with calling others to follow Him.

“Follow Me”

It is an acknowledging call.

It is an abandoning call.

It is a call to accompany.

It is a call to activity.

We left off last Wednesday asking ourselves this question: “In light of Christ’s call to follow, am I following Him?”

This week, we are going to continue on the trail of Christ’s call.

I mentioned this last week, but Christ’s second most used phrase when calling people is “come after me.”

It seems the phrase “Follow me” was a personal call, while “come after me” is almost always used publicly.

Also, “follow me” is a call to service where “come after me is always associated with the cross.”
