Discipling – True Discipleship

 

Who can ask someone else to follow THEM?

 

Pr. 23:22 Hearken unto thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old.

 

I Cor. 4:15 For though ye have ten thousand instructers in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

4:16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.

Paul had the right to say ‘follow me,’ because he brought those believers to a saving knowledge of Christ.  He did not say that to people who Peter (for example) brought in.

 

Phil. 3:17 Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.

4:9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
