There IS A Difference
More from our Senior Pastor Tim Stevenson:
"It is important to understand, here and in other passages where Christ issues a call to discipleship, that this is different from his offer of salvation by faith alone in him. Following Christ, as a disciple or learner is a distinct and separate decision, following the decision to trust him for eternal life. Don't confuse the two. Following Christ in discipleship does not earn or maintain eternal life; it determines the quality of your life and service in this world, and the honor and reward you can anticipate in the next."
So, for today, do you think most teenagers view "following Christ" as earning or maintaining eternal life? Why or why not? Do you think the perceived quality of life teenagers see in their view of discipleship is truly a better quality of life than those of non-believers? Why or why not?
