Compass Commentary
With all of the wonderful blessings that God has given to us, do we have any responsibilities? How can we possibly repay Christ for what He has done for us? In summary, we can’t repay Jesus for His ultimate sacrifice on our behalf. But we can express our love for Him by sharing this with others. So, yes, we do have a responsibility, and its called discipleship. Just as Jesus invited His disciples to follow Him, spent time with them, taught them about His love for the world, and wanted the world to experience His love, we have a similar opportunity and responsibility. We may never have the chance to travel the world like some of the great Christian teachers of our day, but we can talk about Jesus within our own homes and neighborhoods. Once someone accepts Christ as their Lord and Savior, their journey is just beginning. They need to learn about God, be introduced to the Bible to read and study, and figure out how they can begin to live out and apply God’s truths to their own lives. The “figuring out” part, is very difficult to do on your own, so its beneficial to have someone who has been on this journey before, to walk with you. The role of the disciple-maker is not to be a picture of perfection, but to be real and authentic, acknowledging that life has its temptations and struggles, but that living a life with Christ as the focal point, is fulfilling, joyful, and rewarding. Each of us need to be held accountable to live a Christ-centered life, and taking this journey with another like-minded person, will help keep us on the path that Jesus has planned out for us. We all can be disciples who make disciples who make disciples. This is what Jesus began over 2,000 years ago.
