Introduction: Quite often, when we think of being a good Christian we think of, going to church on Sunday, reading our bible, praying before bed, and following the Ten Commandments. Most Christians are unaware that there is more that we must do to please our Lord, Jesus Christ. We must also go out into the world and tell people about Jesus. Therefore we must make more disciples of Christ.
This is what my passage, Matthew 28: 16-20, is talking about. The main point of the passage is for the disciples and us as Christians, to go out and make more disciples, by teaching them to obey what he has commanded. This is familiar to me because at my home church we always say to go out and make disciples of disciples, by telling them of Jesus Christ and his story, telling them about the rules that he wants us to obey and having them come to church and be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the

    When one views the life of the Apostle Paul in the New Testament it is evident that he had a heart to disciple others. The evidence at hand identified Paul as more than an individual who had doctrinal knowledge, for he was the quintessential model for living out the standards of Christian behavior. In his letter to the Church of Philippi Paul encourage them to “Whatever…

    In regards to discipleship I do think the Western Church has drop the ball. We have misinterpreted the model Jesus set for us when it comes to discipleship. We have move discipleship from walking with some one and teaching them day today to a class that you signed up for and complete. Robby Gallaty in his book rediscovering discipleship lays out the model Jesus use for discipleship (1) lead why the disciples watch (2) lead while the disciples assist (3) assist why the disciples lead and (4) watch the disciples lead for whatever reason I think we have moved away from this model.…

    This mission reminds us that for the Kingdom of God to continue to break in, individual lives need to be changed, while being motivated and equipped for transformation. Our Book of Discipline offers this cue: “God has used our church to save persons, heal relationships, transform social structures, and spread scriptural holiness, thereby changing the world.” When we change lives and introduce people to the all-loving nature of God, we indeed transform the world. When making disciples, the Church welcomes people into community, educates them on God’s call for Christians, and equips them toward using their spiritual gifts to serve as change agents playing a role in bringing about the Kingdom of…

    One of the greatest privileges of the Christian life is to go and proclaim the gospel to every nation, tribe, and tongue (Rev. 7:9). It is the task and duty of every believer to share Christ. When Jesus gave the Great Commission to the disciples, He said, “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations” (Matt. 28:19). The task of sharing the gospel can be done in one’s own community, workplace, or with family. However, in order to fulfill the Great Commission, Christians must go to every nation, tribe, and tongue to fulfill the task of reaching the world for Christ.…

    Without Christ, there can be no Christian discipleship. Christ is the teacher, friend, leader, guide, savior and Son of God who is the central part of Christian discipleship. 1 John 5:20 says, “And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.” To be a disciple of Christ, one must acknowledge Jesus as the central part of discipleship.…
