Discipleship 18 October 2015 Midrand Dennis Erasmus

Missional The Great Commission – Mt. 28:19. It’s the result of John 3:16. It’s the real business of the church. It’s fundamental to everything we do. It’s engraved in our name. It’s the reason for our existence.

Empowerment Equip members according to their skills & talent.

Ecumenical Obedience to John 17.

Socio-Economic Relevance Empower people to take responsibility for their own future.

Governance It’s about oversight on all church levels

Discipleship 1Math. 28:19 - Disciples not merely converts. 2True followers of Christ. 3Importance of character. 4Apostolic/missional in nature.

Discipleship "Discipleship" and "following Christ" are used synonymously. The Gospels, Acts, and Epistles urge disciples to be imitators of Jesus Christ. Being imitators requires obedience shown by moral behavior. (taken and reworked from wikipedia)

1Math. 28:19 - Disciples not merely converts. Joh 6:63 What gives life is God's Spirit; human power is of no use at all. The words I have spoken to you bring God's life-giving Spirit. Joh 6: Because of this, many of Jesus' followers turned back and would not go with him any more. So he asked the twelve disciples, "And you---would you also like to leave?"

"cheap grace is the preaching of forgiveness without requiring repentance, baptism without church discipline. Communion without confession. Cheap grace is grace without discipleship, grace without the cross, grace without Jesus Christ."

2True followers of Christ. Luk 14:26 "Those who come to me cannot be my disciples unless they love me more than they love father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, and themselves as well.

2True followers of Christ. Luk 14:33 In the same way," concluded Jesus, "none of you can be my disciple unless you give up everything you have.

2True followers of Christ Joh 8:31 So Jesus said to those who believed in him, "If you obey my teaching, you are really my disciples Luk 14:27 Those who do not carry their own cross and come after me cannot be my disciples.

3Importance of character Joh 15:8 My Father's glory is shown by your bearing much fruit; and in this way you become my disciples. Joh 13:35 If you have love for one another, then everyone will know that you are my disciples.”

4Apostolic/missional in nature. Act 14:21 Paul and Barnabas preached the Good News in Derbe and won many disciples. Act 6:7 And so the word of God continued to spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem grew larger and larger, and a great number of priests accepted the faith.

Conclusion: Discipleship All people Crowd of listeners People that belief in Jesus People that are baptised Followers of the church Disciples of the pastor Disciples of Jesus Growth to be like Jesus
