1 | Evidence of holy spirit in a Christian? | 2 Tim 1:14 | Makarios | 104588 | ||
So we are discussing discipleship. :-) I agree, we do not automatically 'assume' or are given all of those 'traits' that I mentioned in my first and second posts unless we have been through a bit of discipleship, and have gone through a bit of 'growing up'. I have an idea that this is what you are thinking.. But the sad part of it is, is that not everyone goes through the discipleship that will carry them through to maturity in Christ. And what I have been describing is a Christian who is mature and strong in the faith, with the assurance of their salvation. While I cannot personally say that I have discipled anyone, I can bear testimony to the fact that there have been a few faithful men who are "pillars of the faith" that I can point to who have been examples for me and have shown me what it means to truly be a Christian man, so that I can now stand on my own, even though I continue to grow in the faith. I have not formally assumed an opportunity to help another person grow in the faith, even though many people have told me that I have been an encouragement to their faith. I am a 27 year old single man. Perhaps I will have the opportunity for discipleship in regards to other men in the years ahead. Blessings to you, Makarios |

2 | Evidence of holy spirit in a Christian? | 2 Tim 1:14 | flowing | 104589 | ||
but how does one actualy get to go through discipleship? Does or is one discipled when one goes through trials...(James 1:2) or is there a stage in ones life, where one realises that something has changed in ones life that can only be caused by spending time with God (The Holy Spirit?) [john 14:26] flowing. |
