Here are some Scriptures that talk about following Jesus. They have been on my mind a lot lately. I don't believe we are called to put on our WWJD bracelets, but we are called to immitate Him, to do what He did, and to let his methods and ways influence every single thing we do. I am committed to growing in this...this process of becoming more like him.
1 John 2:6 Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did. NIV
Ephesians 5:1-2 Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children 2 and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
1 Peter 2:21 To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps .
2 Corinthians 5:20 We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God.
John 13:34 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
John 14:12 I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.
Luke 6:39-40 A student is not above his teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like his teacher.
Matthew 10:24-25 "A student is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. 25 It is enough for the student to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebub, how much more the members of his household!
Philippians 2:5 Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:
Matthew 10:38-39 and anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. 39Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
Ephesians 5:30 for we are members of his body. NIV
Ephesians 1:22-23 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, 23which is his body , the fullness of him who fills everything in every way. NIV
1 John 4:17 In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. NIV
