Followers of Christ Live a “God-Centered” Life

24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 25 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it. —Matthew 16:24-25 NIV

Followers of Christ Deny Themselves and Take Up Their Cross

I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. —Galatians 2:20 NIV

1Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. —Romans 12:1-2 NIV

Followers of Christ Offer All of Who They are as a Living Sacrifice - Surrender.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. —Matthew 6:33 NIV
