The admonition to imitate the Christ is of particular interest to men for still another reason. They are the ones who become elders and ministerial servants.
(‏ ١ كو ١١ :‏ ١‏ )‏ وَقَالَ ٱلرَّسُولُ بُطْرُسُ :‏ « لِهٰذَا ٱلْمَسْلَكِ دُعِيتُمْ ،‏ لِأَنَّهُ حَتَّى ٱلْمَسِيحُ تَأَلَّمَ لِأَجْلِكُمْ ،‏ تَارِكًا لَكُمْ قُدْوَةً لِتَتَّبِعُوا خُطُوَاتِهِ بِدِقَّةٍ » .‏
