Three Epic Questions - Matthew, Galatians, Mark, 2 Timothy and Psalms - Oct 2, 2022

Notes:

Organic Disciples are committed to

in Jesus and with Jesus.

“18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”” —Matthew 28:18-20

“17 “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.”” —Mark 1: 17

Discipleship is about the journey of

more like Jesus which leads to evangelism; the adventure of Jesus to people.

Epic Question #1:
How Can I Know I am

as a Disciple?

  1. Look at the kind of my life is .
    A growing produces spiritual fruit which is to others.
  2. Check my meter.

Notes:

“35 Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”” —Matthew 9:35-38

Sympathy is caring without having personal experience in what the other is going through.

Empathy is caring with having personal experience of what the other is going through.

Compassion is caring with God’s heart and choosing to personally walk with the other through their experience.
