Following Christ:
- You’ll lose friendships/ relationships
- You’ll be tempted to sin & your faithfulness will be tested (1 Cor 10:13)
- You will go through hard times & have to make hard decisions (it’s not all bless me)
- You will be an seen as an outcast to many

God has nothing but good things planned for you (Jeremiah 29:11)

A lot of people say they follow Christ and are Christians but are not able to give up the world

To be a true disciple you must be prepared to give up everything and seek the Lord (Luke 14:25-33)

Sex, Stealing, Lying, Pride, Greed, Drunkiness, Lust etc. It must all be given up if you say you are a disciple of Christ (Colossians 3:5-11)

Please I’m not saying this to judge anyone, just to let you know the truth. I still struggle and been struggling but we have to make a strong effort as Christians to follow Christ righteously. If our righteousness is nothing but filthy rags to God, what of our unrighteousness https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤧" title="Sneezing face" aria-label="Emoji: Sneezing face">

So if you believe Christ is your saviour make an effort to leave the things of the world behind.

It’s easier said than done but it’s a sacrifice we HAVE to make.

Matthew 24:12-13
