Jesus challenges those who follow Jesus to consider the cost of becoming His “true” disciple. In a world that loves to hear “Easy Believism” Jesus lays down the gauntlet. You will never experience all faith in Jesus Christ brings to your life until you become His disciple. Sermon Outline @ http://bible.com/events/49019532

Big Question: What have you been afraid to try?

Jesus was often followed by large crowds during His earthly ministry but they never swayed Him away from saying the hard thing. In fact, when the crowds got larger, Jesus tended to proclaim the harder truths to weed out those who were following Him for the wrong reason or who wrong expectations of Him. This seems to be one of those instances.

The popular message today is that Jesus offers you everything and demands virtually nothing. However, Jesus said something very different. He demands that we love Him more than anyone or anything - including ourselves. It we would be His disciple, we must put Him first, take up our cross, and follow Him.

Are You a Disciple?

Discipleship is the call of every believer. The cost is high. We must consider our journey, build our faith, and fight for our faith.

As Jesus makes his way toward Jerusalem, he's teaching and preaching and drawing ever-larger crowds. It must have been something for the disciples to see--all the buzz and excitement. But Jesus now does something that many would find puzzling. In the middle of an effort to draw more and more people into the kingdom of God, he thins the ranks. Why? Let's dive in.

What in the world does Jesus mean by "hating our father and mother" to be His disciple? Why would Jesus command us to put Him first above everything else? This is one of the most challenging passages in Scripture.

The words of Jesus recorded in our text are challenging to hear let alone understand. We sense a tension between the Jesus we prefer to know and the Jesus who sacrificed everything for us so that we might know the grace of God. Jesus’ words are not the source of the tension; our sin is. We were created to walk with God, without distraction or compromise. Not only has sin broken our relationship with our Creator, it also makes our separation from Him seem normal making Jesus' words challenging to hear let alone understand.

Lucas en su evangelio nos narra como Jesús confronto a las multitudes y a sus discípulos con lo que significa ser un discípulo para Su gloria, Jesús nos llama a considerar el costo de ser Sus discípulos. Como iglesia estamos llamados a considerar el costo de seguir a Jesús, tomar nuestra cruz cada día negarnos a nosotros mismo y seguirlo, también debemos de amar mas a Jesús que a nuestra propia vida y familia, el que nos llamo a subir la gran colina, estará con nosotros para llevarnos hasta la cima y cuando lleguemos allí. estará el para nosotros.

The words of Jesus are clear and unhesitating...Following Him costs Everything.

The words of Jesus are clear and unhesitating...Following Him costs Everything.

A couple of weeks ago, we started a new sermon series, "The Cost." This week, we we'll finish up this series with "The Cost: Going Public." Jesus taught that if anyone wanted to follow Him, they must pick up their cross daily and follow him. In a culture where a cross was not a friendly symbol, they were painfully aware of what that implied. What does it look like to pick up our cross today? Following Jesus is an amazing journey that changes everything. Join us as we explore some of how Jesus encouraged us to follow him, and truly consider “The Cost”.

The call of Christ is a serious call on the life of those who are willing to follow Him. He doesn’t want anyone to take Him, or it lightly. His words evoke us to make a wholehearted commitment to Him and encourage us that He is worth it all.

Walking With Jesus Led by the Spirit

Here are some important words from Jesus: “Anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.” Wow, Jesus doesn’t make it easy!

En las última semanas hemos visto hacia atrás y luego hacia adelante y aprendiendo que todas las promesas de Dios están seguras en Cristo. Sin embargo, ¿será eso suficiente para mantenernos fieles en el próximo año, especialmente cuando el costo de ser un discípulo es tan alto?

This month we talk about what happened to families.

Teaching on Luke 14:25-35, Pastor Tom discusses what it means to "count the cost" of discipleship, encouraging us with the knowledge that it is the Lord's faithfulness - not our own - that will enable us to live lives committed to Him.

When Jesus called people to follow him, he did not make it easy. Are we really capable of that kind of commitment? As we look forward to a new year, it is a good time for a personal inventory, one that re-evaluates life and discipleship in light of Jesus' invitation to follow.

What do you think discipleship is? Is it a "follow" like Twitter, or is it more like a lifestyle shift? Guest speaker Gabriel Sobarzo digs into the topic of discipleship, and what it means to be a disciple.

Obedience. It's something we expect from members of the military, kids and dogs. But the funny thing is kids don't always do what they're told (and that goes for dogs, too). Face it, obedience is NOT something we celebrate in America these days. Which is why it's hard for us to understand what it means for God to be King. Jesus, himself, claimed to be a king - and in this message, Max Vanderpool unpacks what that king expects from his subjects...or as he calls them, his disciples.

When we come to passages like this, we face the temptation to lower the intensity of Jesus' words until it is more tolerable to us. If we had to summarize the passage in one sentence, I think it would be this: Salvation is free but discipleship will cost you everything.

Whether Jesus was speaking to large crowds or small groups, He made sure everyone was clear on what it meant to follow Him. Jesus is not looking for fans…He’s looking for followers. Followers who understand that there is no forgiveness without repentance, there is no salvation without surrender, there is no life without death, and there is no believing without following. Today we begin our six week journey from fan’s of Jesus to followers of Jesus. (~Not a Fan Pastor’s Kit)

The Cost

Jesus gives is five marks of a fully devoted follower.

Jesus gives is five marks of a fully devoted follower.

This is a "pre-series" message for the "Not a Fan" discipleship emphasis. In this message, we seek to understand Jesus' disclaimer of what is required to be a true disciple: a follower of Christ, instead of being a fan of Christ.

What is the cost involved with following Christ? Are you "all in" or just keeping in touch?
