Wilson, delivered in Wilmington, North Carolina in 1882 and again on April 7, 1898 at the First Presbyterian Church, concerning what is to be forsaken in order to follow Christ. Wilson describes the "all" that Christ's apostles had to forsake to follow him: their livelihood, their families, their religion, etc. He then describes what people in current times must forsake: whatever it is that stands in the way of complete devotion to Christ. He concludes by stating that as long as one gives his or her heart, all else will be taken care of.</dc:description><dc:format>application/pdf</dc:format><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:rights>http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NoC-US/1.0/</dc:rights><dc:subject>Presbyterian Church in the U.S.--Sermons--19th century</dc:subject><dc:subject>Presbyterian Church in the U.S.--Theology</dc:subject><dc:subject>Devotion</dc:subject><dc:subject>Apostles</dc:subject><dc:title>“They forsook all, and Followed Him.” Luke 5:11( Preached 1882, 1898)</dc:title><dc:type>Text</dc:type></oai_dc:dc>
