'Follow' in the Bible

Jesus said to them, "Follow me, and I will turn you into fishers of people."

As he went along, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sitting at the tax booth. "Follow me," he said to him. And he got up and followed him.

He did not let anyone follow him except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James.

Then Jesus called the crowd, along with his disciples, and said to them, "If anyone wants to become my follower, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.

As Jesus looked at him, he felt love for him and said, "You lack one thing. Go, sell whatever you have and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."

Peter began to speak to him, "Look, we have left everything to follow you!"

He sent two of his disciples and told them, "Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him.
