Leaving everything to follow Christ is how the Bible depicts the concepts of repentance & faith – the two components of the one essential response to the gospel.
Before we trust Christ to get eternal life we should count the cost of following Jesus and be ready with the Holy Spirit’s help to let God be God for the rest of our lives.
The prerequisite to having eternal life is admitting we fail at keeping the rules God requires and the only way to be acceptable to God is to trust Christ who kept the rules for us!
