I wasnt sure where you were going with this, but I think I'm ok with it.  I dont know if I would use the word "following" Christ because I feel that the word "following" makes me think it is something "active" on our part.  God, through the Holy Spirit, maybe "pulling" us toward Him, but due to our sin nature we dont actively choose to follow Jesus.  And then we do have to actively acknowledge who Christ is (God) and make him Lord of our life, and follow Him accordingly.  Pertaining to a previous post, Salvation is much more than just love.  Salvation is through Christ alone.  The Biblical Christ of the Bible is the only I AM..I will write more on this later on my blog, For the Love of Babble located at Babblebum.com.  I am just starting, but drop by there some time.   THanks Jeremy for the perspective...Liss Askew
