Becoming a Disciple
of Jesus ChristHow can I become a disciple?
To become a disciple of Jesus Christ, we submit ourselves to 3 things: His Sacrifice, His Divinity, and His Teaching. We learn ourselves to become transformed as receive the free gift of salvation that has been bought for us, and submit our lives to living under his Word. It means that we become, as the bible says, transformed as our minds are renewed and as our lives are restored. At Abundant Life, as part of our mission statement and why we exist, we desire to walk in three areas of fulfillment as followers of Jesus. We desire that we would have living faith – a faith bought and established by His work on the cross. We desire that we would have growing faith – to live under the teaching of God’s Word. We desire that we would have a fruitful faith – a faith that reaches towards those who do not know Him as their Lord and to those in need.
