Thoughts on Scripture and life
for the glory of Jesus Christ
Discipleship: Come and Die (Part 3)
Jesus is the One who denied Himself. Jesus is the One who took up His cross. Jesus is the One who followed the will of God—suffering, rejection, crucifixion—and then was raised from the dead. As disciples, all we are doing is copying Him.
Discipleship: Come and Die (Part 2)
Why would you want a lifetime of chasing after fleeting pleasure if it costs you an eternity of suffering? Why would you seek to gain the whole world and yet forfeit eternal life?
Discipleship: Come and Die (Part 1)
Jesus demands it all. He demands your entire life. “Die to yourself and your desires. Be willing to die for Me, even on a cross. Follow Me in everything, every giving up your life.”
