"Being A Learner and A Follower
of CHRIST"
Learning to be or become a learner and a follower of The Lord JESUS CHRIST, is not and has never been an easy thing for a lot of people to do. To truly be or become a learner and a follower of JESUS CHRIST, one has to be willing to endure certain conditions and hardships that the world, in general, would not. The world is quick to become angry and upset if they feel that they have been wronged in some way, while if you are a learner and a follower of JESUS, you will be more inclined to just let Me handle the situation. When it comes to things like turning the other cheek for instance, which most people would not even think about doing, that too would be difficult for most people to do. Oh, and do not even think about what Matthew 5:44 says about loving your enemies, blessing those who curse you, doing good to those who hate you, and praying for those who spitefully use and persecute you. Much of what JESUS asked people to do was beyond mankind's natural way of thinking about things, which is what makes being a learner and a follower of CHRIST JESUS so difficult.
Now listen to Me, My children, as I said before, it is not easy to be or become a learner and a follower of JESUS CHRIST. Matthew 7:13-14 says (13) to enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. (14) Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. This, My beloved, is a warning of sorts because mankind's ways of doing and looking at things are so very different from the way The Lord JESUS looks at things, which is why most of you tend to have a difficult time being a learner and a follower of The Lord JESUS. You need to be able to change the way you think about things and the way you see things in order to become a true learner and follower of The Lord JESUS and blessed you will be for so doing, in His Most Holy and Precious Name.
AMEN
