The Way

Well, in the book of Acts, the Christians are called followers of the Way. What this means to me is that their is a path, a narrow path with a narrow gate, and Yeshua has gone before us on this path and prepared the Way and we follow him on that path.

So what is the first step on that path? "Give up everything and follow me." How do we do that? We pray to give up everything from our most prized possessions to our fingers and toes to Yeshua, and we begin following him on the Way.

I also recommend taking everything in your house that you can bear to get rid of and selling it. Everything you give away will bring blessings to you. "Go, sell all of your possessions and come follow me." We may not be able to give up everything, but we can give up alot. One think I think of is that if I had the faith to give up everything in my house and leave it bare, what would happen to me? I don't have that kind of faith, and I can't find out, but I bet it would bring a lot of blessings to me.

Someone asked me today about Bible translations, and I'm going to talk about that in a minute.
