Following the Rabbi Daniel R Skillman

The most famous Jewish Rabbi who ever lived, Jesus of Nazareth, issued a simple directive, "Come, follow me." He believed that you can do it. There are many voices outlining what following Jesus is supposed to look like. It can get pretty confusing. The key to cutting through the clutter is simple: Listen to the Rabbi Himself. Listening to many teachers and preachers, it's easy to get the impression that the voice of God is essentially one of judgment and condemnation. But when you listen to Rabbi Jesus, you hear a voice of acceptance, forgiveness, and love. If it doesn't flow from love, and lead to love, it doesn't come from Jesus; it doesn't come from God. That is why I contend that the unmistakable fruit of the one following the Rabbi is love. Come, follow the Rabbi with me.
