'Followers' in the Bible

I call upon you, therefore, become ye followers of me;

Followers of me become ye, as I also am of Christ.

Become, then, followers of God, as children beloved,

become followers together of me, brethren, and observe those thus walking, according as ye have us -- a pattern;

that ye may not become slothful, but followers of those who through faith and patient endurance are inheriting the promises.
