This resource is a tool to help you make disciples. It has a 2-fold purpose:
1. It assists you in laying strong basic biblical foundations in someone's life.
2. It is deliberately kept simple to make it transferable; enabling those whom you disciple to apply it immediately by discipling others.
The objective is to make disciples.
A Disciple is: Someone who lives by (1) personal conviction of who Jesus is, based on (2) biblical truth and (3) reproduces it in others.
This tool adheres to the three principles below.
Three principles for becoming and making a disciple:
1. Personal Conviction — According to John 15 & John 8:31
A. Remain in the Word
“Remain in Me, and I will remain in you.” John 15:4 (NLT) Practical: Remain in the Word, so to become like the Word (Jesus), which will result in us loving and obeying the Word.
B. Remain in Prayer Read John 15:8 - Ask the Lord to do it in and through you. Practical: Personal prayer for personal conviction, and experience corporate prayer for living out your convictions in relationships.
C. Remain in Family - According to John 15 Read John 15:5 - We are part of God and God is part of us. Practical: Be committed to, and participate in, a local church family where you can become a disciple and make disciples.
