Belief & Leadership

I believe in Jesus
I believe he loves us
I believe he came so he could save us
I Believe In Jesus - Michael Olson
After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector by the name of Levi sitting at his tax booth. "Follow me" Jesus said to him, and Levi got up, left everything an followed him.
Luke 5:27-28
Leadership produces strong belief and faith. Jesus' power was awesome. How else could he persuade Levi (Matthew), someone so steeped in wealth and power, to leave it all behind with two simple words - "Follow me"?
I think we cloud Jesus' ability to lead others to salvation with our constant disecting of his word. I believe in Jesus and his love. Salvation is only through him.
