Being a “Christ-follower” is in our purpose statement and is more than just saying a prayer, raising your hand or coming forward in a worship service. Being a Christ-follower includes a lot more than that (see The Process of Salvation document). We “invite” Jesus to be our Savior and Lord. They are two peas in the same pod! We are saved “by grace, through faith, for good works” (Eph 2:8-10). There must be a change in behavior to be considered a Christ-follower. That change is found in Luke 9:23.
