Following Christ

I was listening to a tape of Dr. Greg Mitchell speaking today. He has some interesting things to say:

“…there are many who say they are Christians, but are not following Him [Jesus Christ].”

“…if you are not following Him [Jesus Christ] in His authority, you’re not following Him.”

“…in the church, the divorce rate is nearly the same as outside the church…The church is not following Jesus Christ! That is not a judgement; it’s an observation! You look at the church – it’s not doing it. God is raising up a church that needs to follow Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior.”

So what does it mean to follow Christ?
