That We May Know Him

Who is True

All That Jesus Taught-Lesson 8

All That Jesus Taught-Lesson 8

February 11, 2026 Marion Merriweather Comments 0 Comment

In this lesson from the All That Jesus Taught series, we examine Jesus’ command “Follow Me” (Matthew 4:19) and uncover the profound meaning of biblical discipleship. Christ, though fully God, emptied Himself of divine privileges (Philippians 2:6) and became fully man (1 Timothy 2:5), tempted in all points as we are (Hebrews 4:15), so that He could serve as our forerunner (Hebrews 6:20) and example. True obedience goes beyond conversion and forgiveness—it involves progressive sanctification, walking as He walked (1 John 2:6), purifying ourselves daily (1 John 3:3), and running the race with endurance (Hebrews 12:1–2). This teaching calls believers not merely to admire Christ, but to follow Him in practical, daily victory over conscious sin as part of completing the Great Commission.

1 John 5:20

And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.
