David James Burrell, Reformed Dutch pastor, considers Christian growth. The old man in him was given over to self-gratification. The new man follows Jesus.

In this passage, he stresses that the specific character of Jesus developing is to be going about doing good.

Much of contemporary talk on Christian growth talks about enjoying devotions, not going about doing good.

How can you grow in Christ?
