Presentation transcript:

“A disciple is a person who through faith in Jesus Christ believes the gospel and seeks to center their life on the teachings of Jesus Christ.”

Disciple – maqhthvj Refers generally to any ‘student’, ‘pupil’, ‘apprentice’, or ‘adherent’, as opposed to a teacher. In the ancient world, however, it is most often associated with people who were devoted followers of a great religious leader or teacher of philosophy.

Luke 6:40 A disciple is not greater than his teacher, but everyone when fully trained, will be like his teacher.

Luke 9: Then he said to them all, “If anyone wants to become my follower, he must deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.
