Follow Me

In the book Follow Me, David Platt explains what it means to be a true follower of Jesus Christ. “Follow me and I will make you fishers of men” (Matthew 4:19) is an appeal to the reader to die to self and live to God. Platt shows several key factors on how this is portrayed in the life of a believer.
Platt says that before an individual becomes a follower of Christ, he must make the most important decision in life and that is accepting God’s free gift of eternal life. This means that the person through faith believes that Jesus died on the cross for his sins and that he rose from the dead conquering death. He repents of all sins and accepts Jesus as Lord and Savior. Repentance means being “transformed in the mind, heart, and life”.
