What are the blessings of following Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Following Christ leads to spiritual blessings, guidance, and the promise of eternal life.

The blessings of following Christ are manifold and deeply rooted in the New Testament promise of life, peace, and joy. As demonstrated in the story of Ruth, a true disciple is rewarded both in this life and the life to come. Ruth’s commitment led to her finding favor in the eyes of Boaz, symbolizing how God blesses His followers abundantly. In Matthew 6:33, Jesus encourages His followers to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, assuring them that all their needs will be met. Thus, discipleship results in spiritual growth, community with God’s people, and ultimately, the eternal companionship with Christ in heaven, a blessing that no earthly possession can offer.
