I have to say I like the way you add details to the question.. the answer is simple,, people make all kinds of excuses why they cant follow or shouldn't follow JESUS example . Jesus although without sin was baptized as an example for us.''why then would we or anyone refuse not to follow after the same manner our savior walked maybe they are not drawn to the Sheppard out of love but are as thieves trying to come in to the kindom other than through the sheep gate?, THE bible clearly says faith without works is dead james 2,; 13-15 17/ u see works follows our faith other wise its just lip service if we say welove jesus and he abides in us then our works would show this, galtions2; 29 I AM CRUICIFIED WITH CHRIST nevertheless I LIVE;; BUT NOT I ;; but CHRIST;; who lives in me .!!..IF CHRIST truly lives in the heart wont it show by your actions or works>? brother murray
