We want to follow Jesus Christ What Would Jesus Do?

Jesus Prayed Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. Mark 1:35

Jesus demonstrated purity For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin. Heb.4:15

Jesus did Miracles Those troubled by evil spirits were cured, and the people all tried to touch him, because power was coming from him and healing them all. Luke 6:18,19

Jesus exemplified compassion I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. If I send them home hungry, they will collapse on the way, because some of them have come a long distance. Mark 8:2,3

Jesus proclaimed gospel And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself. Luke 24:27

Jesus saw all as spiritual Are you so dull? Don't you see that nothing that enters from the outside can make you `unclean'? For it doesn't go into his heart but into his stomach, and then out of his body. (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods ‘clean.’) Mark 7:18,19

Jesus spiritual life... Prayer & Devotion Holiness & Virtue Spiritual empowerment Justice & Compassion Gospel proclamation Harmonizing spiritual with daily life Which do you identify with most?
