MAKING DISCIPLES

MAKING DISCIPLES


Making disciples of all new believers is a direct command of Jesus Himself, spoken forty days after He rose from the dead and just before He ascended to heaven. 
There is no verse in the Bible instructing us to plan outreaches but we are told to make disciples and to baptise everyone in Jesus’ name then we must teach new converts to obey the commands Jesus gave the twelve disciples. 
People everywhere have to adhere to the doctrine of the Lord and to set an example by good behaviour. ‘Teach the things which fit sound doctrine … in all things show yourself an example of good works … showing all good fidelity to adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things’ (Titus 2:1, 7 & 10). 
Mature disciples are to teach new converts to be disciples and thus produce more disciples. Christians must grow spiritually and produce spiritual fruit. 
Eleven of the twelve disciples became apostles and their new converts continued the teaching of the apostles (Acts 2:42).

 DIFFERING OPINIONS BETWEEN GODLY AND UNGODLY PEOPLE There are so many differences of opinion and behaviour it is impossible to list every difference. We hope the reader can understand the differences written here and can understand, ungodly people think and behave differently for two reasons.  One reason is they do not know God and therefore walk in their own form of self-righteousness. They are spiritually lost and need salvation.  They are spiritually deaf so they cannot listen to God’s Word.  The other reason they oppose Godly people is they are walking in the footsteps of their father, the devil.  Jesus said, “Why do you not understand My speech? Because you cannot hear My Word. Read more at: www.bibleabookoftruth.com

EXPLAINING THE NEPHILIM GIANTS The Nephilim were the wicked giant offspring born to the women who had been raped by the fallen angels referred to as ‘the sons of God’.  The Nephilim ‘men of renown’ were not decent men who were well known, they were vicious, violent, wicked half human, half fallen angels who later brought into existence the Amalek and Anakim (plural of Anak).
