Salvation without discipleship is ‘cheap grace’.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer (Lutheran Pastor)
Salvation is free, but discipleship costs everything we have.
Billy Graham
Salvation is God’s gift to us because Jesus died for us on the cross. Discipleship is our gift to Him as we take up our cross, die to self, and follow the Lord in everything.
Warren W. Wiersbe
2822 In the initial stages of discipleship you get “stormy weather,” then you lose the nightmare of your own separate individuality and become part of the personality of Christ, and the thought of yourself never bothers you anymore because you are taken up with your relationship to God.
Oswald Chambers (Lecturer and Missionary)
Discipleship is more than getting to know what the teacher knows. It is getting to be what he is.
Juan Carlos Ortiz
Discipleship sometimes requires that tasks be suspended while fellowship is maintained.
The commandment of absolute truthfulness is really only another name for the fullness of discipleship.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer (Lutheran Pastor)
Darrell L. Bock
His main point is that successful discipleship requires Jesus to be a priority in life.
Darrell L. Bock
Jesus seems to make a distinction between salvation and discipleship. Salvation is open to all who will come by faith, while discipleship is for believers willing to pay a price. Salvation means coming to the cross and trusting Jesus Christ, while discipleship means carrying the cross and following Jesus Christ.
Warren W. Wiersbe
We pray that if any, anywhere, are fearing that the cost of discipleship is too great, that they may be given to glimpse that treasure in heaven promised to all who forsake.
Elisabeth Elliot
A disciple’s attachments are potentially the most destructive thing for discipleship.
Darrell L. Bock
For the discipleship principle is clear: the poorer our vision of Christ, the poorer our discipleship will be, whereas the richer our vision of Christ, the richer our discipleship will be.
John Robert Walmsley Stott (English Preacher)
