    A sermon for Church Anniversary

    Jesus said, ‘every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure-store both the new and the old.’ This rather odd little verse is probably a kind of signature from the writer of the Gospel.

    Discipleship was not simply a program through which Jesus ran the disciples. Discipleship was life.

    In the New Testament mathethes occurs only in the Gospels and Acts. The term occurs at least 230 times in the Gospels and 28 times in Acts.
