WHAT KIND OF DISCIPLES ARE YOU PERSONALLY MAKING &WHAT KIND OF DISCIPLES IS YOUR CHURCH MAKING ? ... think about it

I often ask myself this question ( amongst many others). Every individual Christian and Christian community embodies a gospel ,the question is .. is it The Gospel that Jesus preached , lived & died for ?
When Jesus called / calls us to in Matthew 28:18-20 , highlighting verse 19 "Go therefore & make Disciples of all nations , baptizing them in the name of the Father & of the Son & of the Holy Spirit ,v.20 teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you ... "
He was commanding us to make in His name for His glory full Gospel disciples according to the true Lord Jesus.  
For Jesus, the Gospels reveal His definition of Discipleship : a person marked by Holiness , someone who is captivated by the Kingdom of God and passionate about seeing God's Kingdom
come to earth . Relentless love is a non-negotiable mark of all  authentic Disciples of Jesus Christ , radical , palpable passion for God ,  prayer , & integrity flow forth out of Disciples of Jesus .
Justice , mercy , compassion , lost for the unloved , rejected , and marginalised are conspicuous  by the very presence are a daily awareness that is ALWAYS producing fruit of obedience .
A servant's attitude is authentically present even when the said Disciple is often unexpected .

Transparent Disciples of Jesus die to themselves daily , hourly ( if required) and  give Jesus the throne of their lives .

So how goes your journey of Discipleship ??? Let Jesus show you His glory as you live for Him .
Praying
