Following the Follower I: Meeting Our Example
When it comes to walking the Christian life, we can find few better examples of how close a saved sinner can walk with God than the Apostle Paul. Unlike the other Apostles, Paul did not spend years as an eyewitness to the earthly ministry of Jesus. He learned about Jesus primarily through the Old Testament. He studied, applied, repented, and lived the gospel.
This week, we begin a new series of episodes focusing on the most biographical section of Paul’s writings: 2 Corinthians 2:12-6:10. This passage explains not just what Paul did, but the realities that drove his decisions and actions.
Jesus gives us the command to “Follow Me,” but how do we know what that looks like? Paul is a wonderful example and he provides a pattern for us. To that end, we seek to follow the follower to walk in the footsteps of Jesus.
