FLIGHTY FOLLOWERS
The apostles, who followed Jesus, argued among themselves who was the greatest. James and John wanted to sit at the right and left of Jesus in heaven. They all deserted Jesus when he was arrested, except John. Peter denied Christ three times. And on and on. They were flighty followers at best.
Then came Pentecost and everything changed. The Holy Spirit crowded out their natural selves and they became sold out for Christ.
