We have believed on the Lord Jesus Christ for our salvation according to the Scripture that states "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved" (Acts 16:31). We have confessed with our mouths the Lord Jesus and believed in our hearts that God has raised Him from the dead, according to Romans 10:9. What's next in our journey of faith? Moving from Being A Believer To Disciple. The Lord Jesus has called us to be his disciples, not just believers. Through the books of Acts, we see that those who believed were referred to as disciples of Jesus Christ. They did not have the option of remaining as "believers". Every believer was a disciple!
A "disciple" was not only a pupil, but an adherent, an ardent follower, someone who followed his Master's teaching closely. Disciples are imitators of their teacher. A disciple is a learner and follower of his teacher, committed to becoming like his teacher. What a powerful impact this will have on people around us, as they see us live like our Master! Where-ever we are, as disciples we are re-presenting our Master. People see the likeness of Jesus Christ in us. Being conformed to the image or likeness of Jesus Christ is the Father's plan for every believer. Discipleship is not following a set of rules, do's and don'ts. Discipleship is not selective adherence. Discipleship is not something the local church is forcing you into, to get you to stay in church. Discipleship is the Master's call for every believer.
