Matthew 21:28-31 NASB

“But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, Son, go work today in the vineyard.’ 29 But he replied, ‘I do not want to.’ Yet afterward he regretted it and went. 30 And the man came to his second son and said the same thing; and he replied, ‘will, sir’; and yet he did not go31 Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you that the tax collectors and prostitutes will get into the kingdom of God before you.

Would you like to follow Jesus? This is how it begins:

  • Repent: Matthew 4:17: Jesus began preaching, repent, 
  • Confess: Matthew 10: 32: “If you confess me before people, I will confess you before my Father in heaven.”
  • Baptized: Matthew 28:19: You must be baptized. 
  • Continue: Matthew 28:20, Acts 2:42: You must continue in the Apostles teachings.
