我們不單單要相信耶穌，還要跟從耶穌。相信與跟從有所不同，因為跟從耶穌是需要委身與犧牲的。在馬可福音八章34節這裡主耶穌基督說：「若有人要跟從我，就當捨己，背起他的十字架來跟從我。 」當我在看這個經文的時候，發現了主耶穌說的跟從有三個重要的動作，第一，捨己，我們當捨身取義，「義」就是神羔羊（主耶穌基督）在我之上，祂成為我的救贖，祂是我的主。第二，背起十字架，意思是我們也要活出神創造我們的目的，背負起主呼召我們當承擔的責任和犧牲。第三，跟從主，就是遵從主的教導與引導，主怎麼做，我們也當怎麼行事為人。

「不背自己的十字架跟從我的，不配作我的門徒。」馬太福音 10:38 RCUV

「我們知道，我們的舊人和祂同釘十字架，使罪身滅絕，叫我們不再作罪的奴隸，」

羅馬書 6:6 RCUV

「凡屬基督耶穌 的人，是已經把肉體與肉體的邪情私慾同釘在十字架上了。 我們若靠著聖靈而活，也要靠著聖靈行事。」加拉太書 5:24-25 RCUV

「我們堅強的人應該分擔不堅強的人的軟弱，不求自己的喜悅。 我們各人務必要讓鄰人喜悅，使他得益處，得造就。」 羅馬書 15:1-2 RCUV

We must not only believe in Jesus, but we must also follow Jesus.  Believing is different from following, because following Jesus requires commitment and sacrifice.  In Mark 8:34, the Lord Jesus Christ said: “If anyone wants to follow me, he should deny himself, take up his cross and follow me.” When I was reading this scripture, I found there are three important actions that our Lord Jesus said about following Him. First, self-denial. We should sacrifice ourselves for righteousness. Righteousness means that the Lamb of God (the Lord Jesus Christ) is above us. He becomes our salvation and He our my Lord.  Second, taking up the cross means that we must also live out the purpose that God created us for, and carry out the responsibilities and sacrifices that the Lord has called us to bear.  Third, to follow the Lord is to follow the Lord's teachings and guidance. Whatever example the Lord has provided to us, we should follow.

“And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.”Matthew 10:38 ESV

“We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin.” Romans 6:6 NLT

“Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.” Galatians 5:24-25 NLT

“We who are strong must be considerate of those who are sensitive about things like this. We must not just please ourselves. We should help others do what is right and build them up in the Lord.” Romans 15:1-2 NLT
