UN*RELIGIOUS (Part 3) • "Follower is greater than Fan" • Barry Bandara

• This Series: Religion has always been man’s attempt to get to God. Jesus came so that, through him, we would have a personal relationship with God. Religion has some good virtues. However, religion can give a false sense of security for what we do for God instead of who we are because of what Christ has done for us.

 

• This Week: Following Jesus is quite distinct from being a fan of Jesus. Being a follower requires commitment and surrender. A fan compartmentalizes their “religion” as a matter of convenience. The challenge is that most fan consider themselves to be followers.
