Evidence of Discipleship Faith evident before the world Let your light shine (Matt. 5:14-16) Cause Gentiles to glorify God (I Peter 2:12) Convert an unbelieving husband (I Peter 3:1-2) Change will attract notice (I Peter 4:1-4) Don’t give enemies a cause to blaspheme (Rom. 2:23-24; Ezek. 36) Walk in wisdom, speak with grace (Col. 4:5-6)

Evidence of Discipleship “It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.” (Gal. 2:20) Is your faith evident? Are you proving that you’re Christ’s disciple? Do others recognize that you’re with Jesus?
