I have a question to you folks. The context is the following:

On Saturday mornings here on radio there is a former pastor who answers some questions on basically christian issues. I have noted that he likes to refer to "followers of Jesus". For example he will say that a follower of Jesus will act in this or that way etc. In fact very rarely if ever he refers to true faith.

My question: True believers are indeed followers of Jesus but are all followers of Jesus true believers? Should one therefore not be carefull in how you use a phrase like "followers of Jesus"?

I have my own answer to that but would like to hear what you say.
