And in Scripture, Jesus commands us to follow HIM, not other men.

You are wrong.

Who is your faith in? Jesus or someone/thing? The answer determines who you follow.

Luke 18:22 When Jesus heard this, he said to him, “One thing you still lack. Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”

John 1:43 The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, “Follow me.”

John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

You are wrong.

Luk_9:23 And he said to them all, If any man will come after me Peter , let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me Peter.

When it comes to scripture, the bible, you are a trip...A BAD trip...HaHaHaHaHa...
