“That I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.” Philippians 3:10-11
The walk of a disciple is not easy. Who wants to suffer and die to self? The world worships success not martyrdom.
Christianity is filled with both lukewarm believers and disciples of Christ. The difference is a disciple knows Christ and lives out His life. He participates in the fellowship of the sufferings of Christ and dies to self to live for Christ.
The disciple lives through the resurrected power of Christ and understands there is no sufficiency within himself.
The disciple is grounded in Jesus through prayer, praise, and His Word. He is sustained by the breath of Christ.
The disciple is like minded with Christ and consistently hears His voice.
You come to know Christ when you make a decision to give up the things of the world to follow Him.
The most important priority for a disciple is to live by faith and please your Savior through your thoughts, words, and actions.
The disciple realizes in the depth of his heart “Christ is all and in all.”
He is the essence of life for a disciple of Christ!
