Obviously, people no longer see us Christians follow Jesus or go with him. He is not with us as he was with Peter and the other disciples, for he has gone up to heaven. But this does not mean that there is no picking us out as followers of Jesus.

Jesus embodies the way to grow up and get ready for the life to come. Following him, we will get to the place that he readies for us and we will be where he is. Just before going up to heaven, Jesus does for his followers what he has already done for two of them. For...

Jesus is the one through whom God speaks definitively to his people. Listening to Jesus and keeping his word leads to peace and fellowship. Jesus goes on to say goodbye to his followers. And they must be listening very attentively in view of fondly recalling and...

Jesus is the perfect model of love to the end. His true and dear followers, then, are those who love one another as he has loved them. Jesus’ followers are as dear to him as children are dear to their parents. And since he is going to be with them only a little while...

Jesus wears the crown of glory because he died for everyone (Heb 2, 9). If we share his death, he will have us living with him in glory. The wicked, true to the plots they were hatching against Jesus, cut him off from the land of the living (Jer 11, 19-20). But God,...

On the cross, the one who bears our sufferings carries out fully our redemption. And to gaze at him mournfully and prayerfully is to pledge to fill up in our flesh what is lacking in his afflictions (see Col 1, 24). It is not that the work of Christ is not enough...
