Once an anchor statement is made, what follows is a perspective that supports the reality of the anchor statement.
All activities we do in discipleship has to be in direct relationship to the Authority of Christ in our life.
To answer the call we must know Jesus
Many have hear about Him
Many have read about Him
Many have experienced what only He can do
To Answer the call we must believe
It is so easy for our carnal mind to minimize Him
They did not believe
++They had been with Jesus
They did not believe
They had been with Jesus
++The rest
Everybody was informed but nobody believed
The Purpose of Discipleship
We are commanded to
++To Go
++To make disciples
A Commandment is built on a Hierarchical Structure
There are two major types of organization structures
++Hierarchical-a clear system of authority
++Relational-Is proper interaction base upon level of influence
The Biblical process is a repeating cycle
++Declaration of relationship
++Becomes Dysfunctional
++Becomes Hierarchical
++Return to Relational
Relational is the goal
Hierarchy is the process
The Process of Discipleship
Baptism is an immersive activity
Baptism declares my freedom from the past
Baptism affirms my new identity in Christ
The Product of Discipleship
The life of the believer is learned through observation
Each generation has a responsibility to pass it on.
Discipleship is
++not about curriculum
++not about expert teaching skills
++anchored in the example
What example are we setting today?
Where do we put our trust?
The World Need Jesus, Now
