IT APPEARS THERE ARE FOLLOWERS OF YESHUA, WHO DO NOT BELIEVE THOSE WHO RECEIVE THE LIGHT OF LIFE THROUGH OBTAINING SALVATION, DO NOT QUALIFY AS MODERN DAY DISCIPLES!

MY QUESTION TO THESE SCHOLARLY MENTORS! WHAT IS YESHUA’S INTENT WHEN HE CALLS OUT FOR ALL TO “FOLLOW ME.“

PAY ATTENTION HERE THIS IS A FOUNDATIONAL TOOL BEING OFFERED!

SPIRITUAL FOUNDATION!

Hebrews 11:6
[6]But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

OBSERVATION!

I believe we find the answer to our question in Matthew Henry’s commentary of Hebrews 11:6 where he reveals what a believer must demonstrate to be actually following in Yeshua’s footsteps:

“It is said that without this faith it is impossible to please God, without such a faith as helps us to walk with God, an active faith, and that we cannot come to God unless we believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of those that diligently seek him

(1) He must believe that God is, and that he is what he is, what he has revealed himself to be in the scripture, a Being of infinite perfections, subsisting in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Observe, The practical belief of the existence of God, as revealed in the word, would be a powerful awe-band upon our souls, a bridle of restraint to keep us from sin, and a spur of constraint to put us upon all manner of gospel obedience.

(2) That he is a rewarder of those that diligently seek him.

Here observe, [1] By the fall we have lost God we have lost the divine light, life, love, likeness, and communion.

[2] God is again to be found of us through Christ, the second Adam.

[3] God has prescribed means and ways wherein he may be found to with, a strict attention to his oracles, attendance on his ordinances, and ministers duly discharging their office and associating with his people, observing his providential guidance, and in all things humbly waiting his gracious presence.

[4] Those who would find God in these ways of his must seek him diligently they must seek early, earnestly, and perseveringly.“

As a tool I believe we will not find a better description of what Yeshua’s intent was when he called out “FOLLOW ME!”

I PRAY YOU ARE ABLE TO FIND YOURSELF IN THIS DESCRIPTION OF A MODERN DAY DISCIPLE!

Robert a humble obedient servant to Yeshua and his Father in heaven Yahewa. And all of God’s children say Amen and Amen in the name of Jehovah Jireh our provider of all things righteous and Holy!
