What Is the True Cost of Discipleship? Dr. Roger Barrier Preach It, Teach It 2021 2 Mar
Dear Roger,
When I read the Bible, I see Jesus placing so much emphasis upon a full-blown commitment to him. His demands remind me of what Dietrich Bonhoeffer said: “When Jesus calls a man, he bids him come and die.”
I’m not certain that I see much “dying” among Christians today. It’s breaking my heart. I’d appreciate your thoughts on the matter.
Sincerely, Kendall
Jesus expected total commitment.
In John 6, we have the record of Jesus feeding the five thousand. What a moment of joy and triumph!
