Disciple-making

Disciples of Jesus want to make disciples for Jesus.

Notes to Growing Christians David Jackman

This is not a matter of duty; it is the overflow of the life of Christ within us. Experiencing the love of God revealed to us in Jesus’s sacrificial death on the cross, we long that others will come to share God’s mercy in the personal knowledge of sins forgiven and peace with him. The joy that is our daily refreshment, as we trust Christ and walk with him, is something we long that others will share, in our culture of doom and gloom. The sure and certain hope of Christ’s return, in power and glory, to bring in his eternal kingdom of new heavens and a new earth, so transforms our prospects and outlook that we want many others to come to know this undergirding, shaping reality for life in the here and now.
