THE LORD JESUS CHRIST in the
​RED LETTERS ( Mark Matthew Luke and John ) said:

Matthew 4:19
​And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
Matthew 8:22
But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.
Matthew 9:9 ¶
And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man,
named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom:
​and he saith unto him, Follow me.  And he arose, and followed him.

Millions of zealous "Denominational Christian" are always proclaiming :
"I FOLLOW JESUS" and look down with disdain or commiseration
​those who say they do not  follow Jesus according to the RED LETTERS,
or affirm they follow Paul to follow JESUS
as instructed in Paul's epistles ( Romans to Philemon).


We should note that there were specific instructions and conditions
attached to following JESUS, namely:


 Matthew 16:24 ¶
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me,
let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.


Matthew 19:21
Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect,
go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor,
and thou shalt have treasure in heaven:
and come and follow me.


Mark 8:34 ¶
And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also,
he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me,
let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

Mark 10:21
Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him,
One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast,
and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven:
and come,
take up the cross, and follow me.


Luke 9:23 ¶
And he said to them all,
If any man will come after me,
let him deny himself,
and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

LUKE 9:
57 ¶
And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.
61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.
62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.


Luke 18:22
Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him,
Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast,
and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven:
and come, follow me.

IN TOTAL HONESTY,DO YOU ANYONE WHO IS DOING WHAT THE LORD COMMANDED TO HIS PEOPLE ISRAEL,THEN?
and,by the way,those instructions were given to ISRAEL only! 
Just read :

Matthew 15:24
But he answered and said,
I am not sent but
unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
MATTHEW 10:5

These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying,
Go not into the way of the Gentiles,
and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils:
freely ye have received, freely give.


IN THE RED LETTERS JESUS WAS NOT TEACHING US GENTILES,
HE WAS NOT ADDRESSING US
AND WE WERE NOT IN HIS EARTHLY MINISTRY
and PAUL TELLS US
:


Ephesians 2:11
Wherefore remember,
that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh,
who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 

Ephesians 2:12
That at that time ye were without Christ,
​being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel,
and strangers from the covenants of promise,
having no hope, and without God in the world: 


It is high time that believers STUDY the word of Truth RIGHTLY DIVIDED
as we are instructed to do in the letters of the Apostle Paul:
​

2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God,
a workman that needeth not to be ashamed,
​rightly dividing the word of truth. 


We learn from the letters of Paul that we are to follow him
​TO FOLLOW CHRIST 





FOLLOW PAUL TO FOLLOW CHRIST


1 Corinthians 4:16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.



1 Corinthians 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.



Ephesians 5:1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;

Philippians 3:17 Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.

1 Thessalonians 1:6 And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost:
​

1 Thessalonians 2:14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:

SO THAT IS HOW WE FOLLOW CHRIST IN THIS DISPENSATION OF GRACE 
​GRACE and PEACE to ALL
