Should we rethink discipleship? Are programs and books the way to go, or is learning to study the Bible correctly the best process? How do churches look at discipleship? How do the people in the pews see it? Is there a disconnect? Can you define what discipleship is? What is discipleship in Judaism? The disciples studied under the Lord Jesus Christ. He is their Creator! In effect, He wrote the Bible. We are to learn from Christ's life and the Apostles' teaching. See Acts 2:42. Let's dive in with Dr. Scott Duncan, a Discipleship Pastor! He has seen amazing results in his 15 years as Discipleship Pastor on a renewed focus when he began to "Rethink Discipleship." Please like, subscribe, and share. It helps us grow.

Where do we start, in the church or on your own?

Remember. This is His House (the earth and everything in it) and, therefore, His Rules (Bible). His word is His will. 

1. Small group for men
2. Small group for women
3. Co-ed
4. Goals of study should be to engage the biblical text by gently showing proper biblical study principles
5. Consider using this type of small group bible study as an evangelism tool
6. Change the motivation from learning "about the bible" to asking the Lord how to live praiseworthy to Him from the biblical text and what His plans and purposes are for our lives that we glean from the text. Here is an example of our men's bible study, which is growing rapidly: https://youtu.be/VfjmIsvlVLE

Several religions have stated that Jesus is not God. Or that Jesus did not say He was God. This is nonsense. He told the Jewish people that He was the I Am several times. (Exodus 3)

When Christians try to understand the Trinity, they sometimes do not understand how God can come down in the flesh. Genesis 18:2 shows this very well. 

But Jesus was 100% God and 100% a man. Daniel shows this together with the Ancient of Days and the Son of Man. Adam and Eve were sinless and then sinned. For JWs, how would our sins be forgiven if Christ was not God because only God is sinless? And how would he be able to die for the sin of the world, us who were born under sin, if He was not 100% man and 100% God. He could cry out, "It is finished," as He declared all those who would believe by faith that He was God. 1 Cor 15:1-4. He rose again and appeared to the disciples so that we would know our promise of eternal life. 

No one is saved without placing their faith in Christ. But how? Pray to the Lord, place your sins on Him, believe that He is God and that He died for your sin,s and ask him into your heart. He will cause you to be born again from above (John 3). Without that, no one is saved. 

All other religions, even some Christian religions, ask you to work to be saved, but Christ wants us to believe in Him. Then He helps us from the inside out to do things for Him. We walk through life under His precious blood, which is the grace of God teaching us away from ungodliness. Titus 2:11-12

Challenge. When you read the Gospels and see Jesus doing something or not knowing something, think about why the Holy Spirit is showing this particular situation. Could it be to teach us how to respond? We are to follow Him. We are to be His disciples. It makes for an interesting study.

I am with Dylan Browning for a series on Spiritual Warfare. Dylan also studies scripture to live a praiseworthy life to God with Biblestudycompany.com. Dylan came from a Pentecostal/charismatic background and encountered a man who believes Christians can have demons. He recently attended this man’s conference and came back with some questions on spiritual warfare. My challenge was this; let’s study what you currently know about this topic in the Bible, and then we can have a podcast. He eagerly decided on the bible study! After his research, we met several times to hone the podcast. 

Here are some of our topics: 
Can believers who are born again have a demon? What happens when the Holy Spirit comes into us? Are there generational curses, and what about “soul ties”? What is our role in spiritual warfare? Is spiritual warfare offensive (we go on the attack) or defensive in nature? Are humans three parts: body, soul, spirit, or two parts? When Christians pray about binding, is this biblical? How and what do we pray for people when we encounter demons? Does repentance play a role in deliverance? 

Join us for the podcast and these questions and lively discussion!

#Bible #Biblestudy #Jesus #JesusChrist #biblestudycompany #Ephesians #Ephesiansbiblestudy

We are studying the next part of Ephesians.  We learn about, 

1. Redemption and what it means. The forgiveness of our trespasses (sins) against God's laws. The good news (Gospel) is that we cannot earn or work our way to a relationship with God. We need a rescue (redemption). Christ did it all. 

2. It is through Christ's blood. Christ dying for our sin is how we know God came to earth. He was able to fix Adam's sin, forgive our sin 6,000 years later, and forgive the whole world's sin. Each person has an opportunity to access this forgiveness. All we need is to ask Christ to save us with a sincere heart, as Erv and Ric did.  

3. Did you know we have access to knowing God's will? We do! Christ, it says of Christ,

 "7 In Him, we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace 8, which He lavished on us. In all wisdom and insight 9, He made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His kind intention which He purposed in Him"  
We need to carry these verses about "who" we are in Christ. We are a new creature, and the old has passed away, as Paul says. But why are we knew? What does that mean? It means we are now in Christ, and He gives us the power (grace through His Holy Spirit) to do His will.   

But what if we don't want to? Tell Him. Be honest. Have a relationship with the God of the Universe Who died for you and us.   Join us for worship and study of God's word. Grab your psalms and join us to give God glory in our study. He deserves it!
