For Week 3 in our mini-series, ‘The Moral Vision of the NT,’ we explored Romans 12:3-8 and learned that humble service promotes unity in the community of the church.

For Week 2 in our mini-series, ‘The Moral Vision of the NT,’ we learned that the gospel compels us to be transformed by increasingly yielding to the truth in all we do.

During this last mini-series within the ‘Year of Biblical Literacy,’ we’re exploring ‘The Moral Vision of the NT’ and asking the question: How do our lives continue to tell the true story of God?”

If a disciple is someone who is increasingly submitting all of their lives to the empowering presence of Jesus Christ and teaching others to do the same — Then Jesus’ love is the motivation and power to do that.

Being a disciple of Jesus means being with Jesus, becoming like Jesus, and doing what Jesus does. The more we do this, the more we embrace His service to us and our freedom to truly serve others.

Being a disciple means continually submitting yourself to the lordship and empowering presence of Jesus. The heart of a disciple is obedience fueled by thankfulness and joy.

Because Jesus is God incarnate and the perfect human, he has perfect character. That perfect character enables and equips Him to heal both physical and spiritual illness — especially sin.

The only true Christianity is one where people become disciples of Jesus Christ — Fully submitting every area of their lives to His empowering presence and lordship and teaching others to do the same.
