The name of Christian, you see the same is true for everybody that follows Jesus.

Because we have the new, I need you to help me out on that. I like, I love it. When people follow Jesus are called Christians traffic, another name that is that refers to Jesus, disciples.

We're call sayings. Send 6400 special people in the church sang Forever children of God that makes us brothers and sisters and then collectively called what the temperature will be in the car until I got out of out of the world to me and then go back into the world as what. And I love that the very first answer that you getting whatever. I ask this question more than any other turn.

And this is so Central to breathe.

Are calling. Our calling is a jerk for calling as individuals. your familiar to me it is Jesus last words to us as his disciples telling us what we're supposed to do and it says go therefore and make disciples

The dishes, are you wanting of clarity? Kind of paralyzed can't really go somewhere and visa and Clary directions?

It's okay, let's read together. Matthew chapter 4 starting to burst before. Starting a call from the same Freight truth of God. Simon, who is called Peter and his brother Andrew and they were cast into the sea

I told them and I will make you fish for people in immediately. They left their neck, follow him. Going on from there. He saw her brothers James, the son of Zebedee. And if they were in a boat with seven either father immediately, they left their father.

We pray together for we continue on thanking God for his work together. that we are grateful to be gathered today in your present as your people, We are thankful that you have given us a new name. Thank you for your disciples, and we ask right now. Holy spirit, that you gave us a spirit in this message. You will find it in our hearts. We go ahead and say yeah.

Me and I also pray for every years in this room every person is watching online. E-file

so, take a note, help me, help me remember to remember,

Here's the definition of. I'll give you a disciple is someone who first follows Jesus s a b in Jesus in 3rd participating in the mission of Jesus. Amen.

Then we abide in Jesus and then we participate in the mission of Jesus. This is actually Persian counter where Jesus calls for people to come and meet us beside it. When we can see in this initial opening that we have, Above the call of Jesus. And then people responding. There's an invitation. And then there is a given response. All and give out invitations to people and caused that every person has to make a decision whether or not they were going to say yes. And so in our first date I want you to see first that we want to talk about. This is the beginning point, the invitation and then we were spies.

That is a call to discipleship. Follow me. I will make it says immediately.

We have another Jesus walk down a little bit further the same pattern.

Worry, introduces on the following Jesus is something that often cost us. Something that there are that they we have to weigh in the cost of what it means to follow Jesus. Father, Jesus name, the Jesus is our leader in these, even our Lord, our King, our teacher Disciples of. People, John the Baptist have disciples The Pharisees had disciples Moses. Is calling people to come and let him.

come under his apprenticeship, do nothing about it and you know how I learn

and I watch them.

I have a change form in the shade after my teacher, to the point. That then,

In the same way.

The Great Commission gives us the pattern and what it looks like. We actually follow Jesus disciples of all the nation in the tells us how to do that.

The baptism is entry point into the discipleship, life of Jesus. We are home home directions. proof is Chef is going away from him and he says, turn away from that Old waiver Penn believe in public. what is the owner of the point of deciding which is a picture of a dinosaur old way of living new razor,

and told that the people that hear this message about how they crucified the Savior and then it's a different

And Peter looked down, he said, repent and be baptized in the name of the first of the Christian Church, dry cleaner and a half. But all he is doing, is the very thing that has been shown to him. He has went on an apprenticeship with Jesus chose to follow. Jesus have been raised from the dead.

We don't just talk about the word 10.

Have you come to that?

Did you respond with repentance and right now? And I love that. You're never too far gone to take the last breath. Your opportunity file Jesus is right now. He cannot tell you that person. Get baptized

Jesus is going to be a disciple fire apprenticeship and it doesn't. What would happen?

That's the reason our second part of the word abide.

This dick will continue on with and I want you to see this where we see this in our is they said I will make. I will make you. I will make you going to the Future. it points to something that has it done, but hasn't been done yet but will happen if

cuz they don't yet know how to push for people. Jesus in the shower.

Where to buy the surname. In Jesus, use this working on the point to a text in John. John 15:5. Jesus says, he said I am. You are the branches, the one who buys it.

Because you can do nothing without God.

As soon as we start veering away, from being attached to the vine, the we start losing their resource of life. So what do we have to abide in Jesus and remain? In Jesus, have this daily apprenticeship with Jesus

Sometimes people can follow Jesus. but not really pursue Jesus and even though they've known the Lord for a long time,

This is what I grow up.

Then is glorified in this.

If you gave your life to Jesus today, it doesn't mean that every issue that you have in life is going to be tomorrow. Is there a Hampton Inn? Some time with them. Haven't we get a Amen to that? It is.

So, we're not talking about this. This Perfection. Jesus is the only perfect more like Jesus on the 4th of his work. Begins to show what kind of proof of enjoyed.

Scriptures.

You see, here's a problem.

Sometimes people will get one point, says it all. Somebody's in that situation, and there is no really.

Whether or not you truly have ever submitted your life to have the Jesus, I Need You for Life change. Just for a moment. I want to give you some some ways that you can abide in Jesus, Holy Spirit who is going to be his abiding presence and I didn't help her heart.

That way you just responded or are also. We read something in the scripture and and he says, hey

what you considered? What you're doing, right?

With other followers of Jesus with other disciples sing his praise and you pray for one another and amen. Good job for showing up today.

What does this is a part of our bodies? But I also let me ask you. If this is the only time in your face, this is the only one that you are on the apprenticeship with Jesus. You think you're going to grow and produce fruit in the same way my wife and no I said I love you and I will

The word for Jesus either. So consider this. What does it look like? What is, what is seeking God daily look like in your life? This is a further indication that each day just to open up the scripture and just to say, hey. I will hear from you today. Do you take some crazy guy?

Somewhere, I realize that tomorrow. Okay, that's the truth.

All of them, that one. Tomorrow, we should do something tomorrow, that would bring you closer to Jesus.

In your lap, just a determined to a bed, Everything Jesus calls you to do. Just say, do you think I'm going to think that's what it is.

In the disciple, participate in the mission. A part of that phrase before 19 or be Fishers of Men. Fishing is something that these know what's really interesting about this is Jesus one. Here is Mission with them in a way that would connect with them. Something they would understand what kind of clothes you need to use. What kind of gas you need to do. They were even fixing the nest.

If that early church, it kept it to themselves that message would have stayed stuck in Jerusalem. It went from Jerusalem to Samaria and Danny's carcinoma going to the ends of the Earth.

Cuz there are plenty of people around us and our community. Home alert places, places that we eat, they have not have an account for Jesus, following. Last forever. Surprise.

Sometimes. we enjoyed the fellowship, we have with one another when I B on feet 12,

Along with me, just say this is Mission oriented things you can do to use it to buy someone a church and they show up. He was a church.

Looking looking around. Yes, we need fellowship with each other but looking and say, oh, there's a person, I don't know. I'm not going to send somebody else to talk to

I just going to let everybody else to overwhelm them with the love of Jesus.
