Jesus said, "Follow Me"!
How we may ask?
His final words were, "Go to all the nations and make disciples of all men".
Many feel they are going to Heaven because they're a good person. But Hitler thought he was also, by doing his best for the greater German people by annihilating the few he considered harmful to them.
Others have been taught all they have to do is believe in Jesus. But even Satan and the demons believe in Him.
It's easy to judge ourselves by our own standards, but when we use Jesus as the standard, how do we compare?
On judgement day, our final judgement will be according to how obedient we were to His word. Each according to how much we were given and how much we allowed our talents to be used.
Hiding from it will be no excuse. To whom much is given much is required.
Jesus said, "If you love me you will follow my commands". Daily we must ask ourselves, do we love Him more than ourselves or the things He's given us?
