Follow Jesus...Period

In Paul's first letter to cornth he addresses an promant issue in the time; that issue was that some people were saying they follow paul while others were saying they were following Apollos, or cephas. Paul writes in 1 Corth. 1:13 "Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?" Paul is telling them "i didn't save you, so don't follow me; follow Jesus". This was causing division in the church.

And now, even today, we have the same problems in churches today. "I like hymns, i like contemparory music", "i'm a baptist, i'm a meadothist". To that i say who cares? Who cares? Follow Jesus!

He is the only way to Heaven, the only way. John 14:6 "Jesus said 'i am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the father except through me'" He is the only way to heaven. so to all my fellow christians out there i say "stop putting on this front and making issues out of nothing and follow Jesus" it's that simple. How do we get the word out and stop this stero-type about christians fighting each other? We stop following people, stop following possessions, and simply Follow Jesus.

"Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish in order that i may gain Christ" Phil. 3:8
