Please, we don't need to argue or disagree.
If we are singing from the same hymnal...
vs 1 We follow him
vs2 we worship him in spirit and in truth
vs3 we are transformed by the renewing of our minds
as so on!
In my hymnbook...being followers of Jesus Christ appears in many stanzas as well as all the other things that go into being a child of grace!
1 Peter22: 21For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should FOLLOW his steps:
22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
There’s that word “follow” again...coupled with that shepherd motif like Psalms 23!
