What does a Christ follower look like?

The priority of a believer is to cherish Jesus and develop a personal and deep relationship with Him.

He has a humble and meek personality and is not looking for attention or respect through doing works. 

The goal is to identify with Jesus dying on the Cross and allowing Him to transform you into the character of God.

Most believers want nothing to do with the Cross. They want to impress Jesus through works.

The Cross causes you to die to self. Jesus asks you to set aside your desires and goals and seek Him out with all your heart.

The believer who strives to please God with works is attempting to escape the Cross for gratification through works. 

The powerful works of God are accomplished by the believer who has given up everything to follow Jesus. He desires to walk in oneness with Jesus through prayer, reading the Bible and listening for His voice.

The most important goal is to zealously seek the will of Jesus and be open to the housecleaning work of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus is not looking for perfection but a heart willing to turn away from living for self and letting go of compulsive habits.

Jesus is demanding and requires very high standards of a disciple. He paid dearly for your life!
