 Following Jesus - A Spiritual Journey

Sunday September 9

Pastor Greg Walton tells how following Jesus takes energy and effort.

And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into His likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit." 2 Corinthians 3:18

"For I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land you are now entering to possess." Deuteronomy 30:16

Love God

"We love because He first loved us." 1 John 4:19

Walk in His Ways

"Be imitators of God..." Ephesians 5:1

Keep the Commands

"These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me. They worship Me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men." Matthew 15:8

GROWING

In Relationship to God

"Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker; for He is our God and we are the people of His pasture, the flock under His care." Psalm 95:6-7

"Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God." Colossians 3:16

In Relationship to God’s People

"Therefore encourage one another and build each other up..." 1 Thessalonians 5:11

LOVING

Sharing The Faith

"I pray that you may be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ." Philemon, v.6

Intercede

"welcome him as you would welcome me." v.17

Change Attitudes and Opinions

"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another." John 13:34-35

COUNT THE COST

Relationships

"If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters–yes even his own life–he cannot be My disciple." Luke 14:26

Possessions

"In the same way, any of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple." Luke 14:34
