    Two weeks ago I asked the question, why are we here? The answer was Jesus’ call for us to be, first, disciples, and second, to disciple others. Last week I asked you, who have you been hanging out with?

    Marks Of A True Disciple

    Contributed by Scott Sparks on Mar 2, 2005
    based on 8 ratings
     | 17,194 views

    Jesus gave us the example of true discipleship - to forsake all, to follow, & to Love one another. Our world tends to work to dilute the real message. However, if we can take hold of the basic truths, we can remain faithful to Jesus’ instructions.

    Marks of A True Disciple Luke 14:26, 33 (KJV) “If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple…So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be ...read more

     | 4,530 views

    God has chosen us in and by Jesus to become fully devoted followers of Jesus and to make fully devoted followers of Jesus. We are challenged within ourselves; by God; and from outside of ourselves to accomplish these two goals.

    1. Good to be chosen – Sports/Jobs/Mates/Friends/Elected Politicians – “Chosen by People” 2. God has called us by the gospel (2 Thessalonians 2.14) 3. The gospel call challenges us to transformation in our lives – 1 Thessalonians 1.4-10 4 For we know, brothers loved by God, that he has chosen you, ...read more

    God calls us all. Our problem is not knowing what we are called to do, it is having the courage to do it.

    It Takes Courage to Dance 2 Timothy 1:17 A calling from God comes to us all. It is our vocation, the reason we take up space on this crowded planet. We recognize that our calling may not be our career. Nevertheless we long to be used to make a difference. My experience leads me to believe that the ...read more

     | 2,576 views

    What do these two stories (Jonah and disciples called to be fisher of men) the have in common? The disciples were called to be fishers of people and Jonah got eaten by a fish. Both of these stories have elements of decision, opposition and courage.

    We are called to become fishers of men by following the fisher of men

    Following the Fisher of Men When Jesus calls Peter on the shore of the Sea of Galilee, it is not their first encounter.

    This message invites believers to respond to Christ’s call to be with Him, to preach, and to have power, rather than just crowd Him when we have a need.

    The Power of His Presence (Mark 3:7-19) Several years ago, on New Year’s Day, a beautiful float in the Tournament of Roses parade suddenly sputtered and quit. It was out of gas. The whole parade was held up until someone could get a can of gas. The amusing thing was this float represented the ...read more

    There are no free rides in the calling of God. One must be decided and determined to get on board and pay the fare.

    It is going to cost something. Luke 9:57-62 Jesus and the disciples have left Samaria in route to Jerusalem. 2 Men sought to follow Jesus of their own accord. 1 Man was asked to Jesus to follow him. Jesus does not candy coat the calling of the ministry. He warns us up front that there is a ...read more
