The cost and reward of following Jesus

There is a cost to following Jesus.  You should not treat your decision to follow Jesus lightly.

Jesus said:

If any man would come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
--Mark 8:24

The message of Jesus results in shameful treatment and Jesus expects you to follow him on that path.  But there is also a reward:


Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ
--Romans 5:1
