But what comes after "I believe" is equally important, and it's the way someone truly becomes a fully devoted follower of Christ.

If you take a moment to think about all that God has told each believer to do, it is almost overwhelming: Go into all the world and preach the gospel, feed the poor, clothe the naked, visit the prisoner and so much more.
