Again, if Jesus would do it, I would follow.
Yes, usually, yes, but should you choose to be crucified on a cross of wood with nails driven through your flesh because Jesus did that?
"Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?
Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me." John 21:21-22
Both Peter and John followed Jesus, but both of them were not physically crucified as was Jesus. Jesus led them both, but the pathways of those two apostles were not exactly equal although they both led to the Light at the end. There are also different functions for different parts of the Body of Christ.
@robaston Would Jesus have done what Samuel did? If it was the will of the Father, most certainly! We must listen carefully to all that God says and then obey precisely all that He speaks to our heart.
"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: " John 10:27
If are not always listening and always obeying and always following, will we not then sometimes fall into a ditch?
