The Sermon On The Mountনমুনা
Following Jesus is not just about what we say. In Christianity, confession of Christ and what you say about Christ is important. But mere verbal confession is not enough: “Not everyone who says, ‘Lord, Lord’ will enter the kingdom.”
Following Jesus is not just about what we do, not even what we do for Christ and in the name of Christ: “Many will say, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons, and do many mighty works in your name?” In our Christian lives, serving Christ and his cause in ministry is important, but it is not enough.
Following Jesus is not about what we know or have learned. Jesus says that it’s not enough to just hear his words. It is, again, important to rightly know the teachings of Christ and the Bible itself. But again, it is not enough.
Following Jesus is about wisdom: “Everyone who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man.” Wisdom is the right application of knowledge. The greatest challenge of the Christian life is living the Christian life.
