So, you follow Jesus? Or do you adhere to the doctine, rules and regulations of a denomination and follow these as a priority? Or does the theory of a theologian guide your faith? Or do the words of Paul mean more to you than those ascribed to Jesus? Whilst I consider obeying the Great Commandments and the call of Jesus to follow him has to be my priority I recognise the influence of doctrine and theology, but these should be secondary considerations.
To follow Jesus should mean to have a transformed personal life and outlook on social justice issues. It is a huge challenge and we need to pray for strength to achieve the demands of our faith.
