“Whoever desires to save his life will lose it,
but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.”
MATTHEW 16:25
Some will say, “I am willing to die now that I have followed.” The person who knows the Cross says, “I am fit
to follow now that I have died.”
Why
is this important? Because Jesus knows that no human being is qualified
to follow Him until they have first died. Jesus knows a man cannot live
until he has died and been raised to life again. He therefore bids us
to die right away, that He may raise us from the dead by His Indwelling
Spirit and place us immediately upon the correct path.
