Jesus and us

The Christian Science Monitor

Christians the world over recognize Christ Jesus as Saviour. He explained and illustrated the way of salvation, a way that is available to all humanity, to all who choose to follow the Master's teachings.

Christians adore Jesus. But what is our relationship to him? Are we simply passive beneficiaries of what he has done, having only to "believe" in him? Or are we, like his earliest disciples, expected to be students and genuine followers?

The Master himself answered this question when he told his disciples, "He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also." And at another time he told them: "These signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover."
