There is a prerequisite for following Jesus, & this includes leaving all. In Matt 4:20 the text says, “Immediately they left the boat & their father & followed Him.” There are 2 things that are identified as being pertinent to leaving all behind; they left their boat (careers) & their father (significant relationships). Both are the 2 most significant things in our lives. We all have careers or aspirations & we all have families. Anyone that will follow Jesus must embrace the fact that He must take precedence over our career & our relationships. Today’s sermon focuses on the true call and exposes the mentality of a majority of Christians today that do believe but do not whole heartedly follow Jesus. The jargon goes something like this: “You believe your way & I’ll believe my way; you serve God your way and I’ll serve God my way.” There is one big problem with this mentality, which is discussed in the sermon.
