Are
you a disciple? Has
anyone ever asked you the question “Are
you a disciple? If
so take a moment to list your answer and then list some reasons why you
answered the question the way you did.
Most
Christians view themselves as disciples but do not really understand
what it means to be a disciple of Christ.
Here
are just a few verses that deal with the idea of being a disciple.
Some them come from Jesus Himself.
Read each verse and the take the time to write down what each
verse says to you about being a disciple.
1
Corinthians 9:19
John
15:8
Luke
14:33
John
10:27
Matthew
28:18-20
All
these verses give you the basic idea of what a disciple is and what God
expects of you as a Christian. As
Christians we need to learn from the examples of those disciples that
came before us and the best place to start is by reading through the New
Testament listing as you go the actions of the first disciples. This way
you will know how to live a consistent, exciting faith filled lifestyle.
