2 | George, do you believe? | Luke 14:26 | seeking4truth | 101430 | ||
Thanks, Searcher. This is the "standard" answer that is given. I'm NOT saying it is right or wrong, just the typical answer. But it also gives me great pause to call myself a disciple. I simply don't do what these disciples did. A disciple, as I understand it, is a learner. And at this point, I am not so sure if it is the teachings of Christ that I should be learning or the person of Christ. Are they the same thing? Well, there certainly does seem to be a difference, doesn't there? After all, Christians belief that Christ is for everybody but that not all of His teachings are. Sincerely, seeking4truth |

3 | George, do you believe? | Luke 14:26 | Searcher56 | 101434 | ||
Scripture ... Luk 2:11; Act 2:36, 11:17; Rom 6:23; 1 Cor 1:9 ... There are some who want to learn more about Christ and some others more about His teaching. Neither one makes one a Christian. Even Christians try to learn one or the other ... but, we need to do both, including the fact He is Lord Jesus Christ ... not just Christ, Jesus or even Jesus Christ. We need to embrace all of Him and His teachings. We need to see some things He said were to the 12 (or 11) or to indivduals. While we are His disciples, the passages aren't toward us ... rho we can learn from them. Searcher |
