First Disciples
Discipleship
is usually thought
of as following
Jesus, being a
preacher, teacher. ... The
other crucial area
of discipleship is
serving others. ... So
discipleship can
be summed up; to
follow, to learn,
to preach, to
believe, to serve. ...
"The Son of Man
must suffer much
and be rejected by
the elders, the
chief priest and
the teachers of
the Law" (Mark
8:31-38)
Discipleship,
like everything in
life, had
positives and
negatives. The
costs of
discipleship were
the violence
inflicted upon
them, the taunts
and non-believers
they had to rise
above, and the
things they had to
give up. ...
The greatest
commandment (Mark
12:28-34)in
relation to
discipleship was
said by Jesus when
he was asked by a
teacher of the Law
who was trying to
catch Jesus out. ...
The first rule of
discipleship is
this commandment,
and as he was
telling it to a
teacher of the
law, he was
telling him how to
live his life
according to God. ...
All of the above
are high points of
the different
aspects of modern
day discipleship. ... That is true
discipleship, to
have a faith like
this is truly
admirable.
