Though these men would be specially trained by Christ for apostleship (ch. 10), Christ’s call is essentially the same in every age: “Follow me.” Discipleship involves submission to Christ’s teaching, fellowship with His person, imitation of His ways, and setting aside everything that hinders our allegiance to Him (vv. 18–22). He has a right to each of our lives. He alone deserves to be followed. The life of faith is one of following the Lamb wherever He leads (Rev. 14:4). What does this mean in your life right now?

As Moses did when God revealed the law (Ex. 19:3,20; 24:12). Christ is the new and greater Moses, the supreme Prophet (17:3–5; Deut. 18:15). Jesus’ message holds together in Himself as King of the kingdom (13:41; 16:28; 21:5; 25:34; 27:37). His kingdom or reign has already begun in His people (vv. 3,10), transforming their lives by changing their nature (7:17; 12:33; 15:13). Christ’s standards of obedience are impossible apart from His grace, and His laws constantly press His people to seek more grace from God (6:9–13). 5:3–10 The Beatitudes of Christ are a pithy exposition of repentance in light of the kingdom (4:17).
