Description
xAre you perplexed as to a leader you can follow - and why you should follow him? Consider Jesus Christ. He gave two unique commandments at the beginning of His ministry that shows His caliber. The fist was a demand for a radical change in the life of His followers. That in itself is a demonstration of how extraordinary He is. No human leader would try to attract followers by telling them they needed to be changed. His chief concern would be to have as many followers as possible in order to enhance His popularity. But Christ was no mere human leader; He was god incarnate. He says to all who would follow Him, "Repent" - that is, be changed; that's the first thing you must do, before you can enter into fellowship with Him.
There are, of course, several commandments consequent to repentance, such as faith and baptism. What is the relationship between repentance, faith and baptism? Can one of these stand for the others? Is baptism, for instance, valid without repentance and faith? Is faith sufficient to get anyone to heaven? Is repentance possible without faith? When baptism is spoken of as saving us, does it include as its prerequisite repentance and faith? What is the relationship between repentance and forgiveness of sins? Can a person who has repented and exercised faith go to heaven without being baptized? Can anyone have repentance without faith or faith without repentance?
After His first commandment, Christ gave a second one: "Follow me." What does this involve? When you follow Christ, do you cease to be a realist as far as your environment is concerned and your own personal and social relationships? Is it wrong to make a living or own material possessions while you're following Christ? What sacrifices are necessary in order to follow Him? This book seeks to provide the Biblical answer to all these questions.

By Spiros Zodhiates
xSpiros Zodhiates was born to Greek parents on the island of Cyprus. After completing his Greek education, he attended the American University in Cairo, Egypt, received his Th.B. degree from the National Bible Institute (now Shelton College) in New York, and his M.A. from New York University. In 1978 he earned his Doctor of Theology degree from Luther Rice Seminary of Jacksonville, Florida. He was also the recipient of several honorary doctorates.
In 1946, Dr. Zodhiates came to the United States at the invitation of the American Mission to the Greeks (AMG), Inc. At that time, there were two part-time employees working out of a one-room office in New York City. Initially serving as Secretary General, he became President of the organization in 1966 and served in this capacity until his retirement. Now known as AMG (Advancing the Ministries of the Gospel) International, the ministry is involved in evangelistic and relief endeavors around the world. Ministry headquarters have been located in Chattanooga, Tennessee since 1978.
Throughout his six decades of leadership, Dr. Zodhiates demonstrated a profound commitment to the Word of God and a singular focus on accomplishing his calling faithfully. His style was marked by frugal stewardship, great enthusiasm, entrepreneurial courage and unexpected generosity.
Dr. Zodhiates is a recognized authority on the Greek New Testament. His works include an edition of the Modern Greek New Testament and the Hebrew-Greek Key Word Study Bible. He authored numerous exegetical books and booklets in both the Greek and English languages, founded and published Pulpit Helps magazine, a monthly tabloid for ministers and Bible teachers, and taught for many years from the original Greek New Testament text on the New Testament Light radio and television programs.
Through Dr. Zodhiates' prayer and effort, multitudes of children were cared for, many hundreds of national workers were trained and sponsored in the Gospel ministry, and countless new believers were introduced to the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Though his burden to bring the Gospel to the world remained undiminished, Dr. Zodhiates completed the transfer of leadership responsibilities to current AMG President Paul Jenks and had retired from active ministry by 2005.
After a long and fruitful ministry, Dr. Spiros Zodhiates entered into the presence of his Lord on October 10, 2009.
