If anyone serves Me, he must continue to follow Me [ to cleave steadfastly to Me, conform wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying] and wherever I am, there will My servant be also. If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.
Later Jesus and his disciples were at home having supper with a collection of disreputable guests. Unlikely as it seems, more than a few of them had become followers. The religion scholars and Pharisees saw him keeping this kind of company and lit into his disciples: "What kind of example is this, acting cozy with the riffraff?"
For I have given you this as an example, so that you should do [in your turn] what I have done to you.
And I have been a constant example of how you can help those in need by working hard. You should remember the words of the Lord Jesus: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.
PATTERN YOURSELVES after me [follow my example], as I imitate and follow Christ (the Messiah).
THEREFORE BE imitators of God [copy Him and follow His example], as well-beloved children [imitate their father].
John 12:26 Mark 2:15 John 13:15 Acts 20:35 1 Corinthians 11:1 Ephesians 5:1
We shape tomorrow’s world by what we teach our children today.
