All in or Almost

Almost doesn’t cut it.

As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. Mark 10:17-18

“Teacher,” he declared, “all these I have kept since I was a boy.” Mark 10:20

Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” Mark 10:21

Almost following Jesus, isn’t following Jesus.

At this the man’s face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth. Mark 10:22

But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. 8 What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ. Philippians 3:7
