- 457Press OnThe Christian life is a race. If we’re going to win the gold medal, Christ, we have no time to fuss with each other or to look back. Instead, we are to help each other press on to lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of us. Will you win the gold medal? Who is winning? You cannot be in the race unless you are saved. Are you saved?
- 458Discipleship 1: WitnessesWhat is a disciple? What are some of the qualifications? One of the biblical qualifications for being a disciple is being a witness. When Jesus saves us, we then become a witness to the change which He brings in our lives. Through faith our spiritual eyes see Jesus. If you’re a disciple, you’re a witness to Christ. You should be able to describe three things – 1. What was life like before you met Christ? 2. What happened that changed your life; how Christ saved you. 3. What is your life like since Christ saved you? Can you describe these three things? Are you a witness to Christ? Are you a disciple? Are you saved?
- 459Discipleship 4: Established In The WordWhat is the purpose of God's word in our lives? The Bible is a very important part of our spiritual walk. Without the Bible, we have no sense of direction in our walk. Since it is such an important part of our faith we are called to live it and teach to others. Jesus taught his disciples and we are supposed to teach ours. One mark of discipleship is “Teaching them to observe all things.” Are you learning all things that Jesus has commanded us? Are you observing his commandments? Are you established in the Word? Are you a disciple of Jesus? Are you saved?
- 460Under GodAmerica is not a perfect nation. It has its faults. The secret of our success in the face of some incredible odds is that we were built on the foundation of “One Nation Under God.” It is up to us, the church, to fix our faults by God’s help and continue to be that “One Nation Under God. Are you saved? Are you forgiven? Have you repented of your sins? Are you praying for healing in our nation?
- 461Under God, Part TwoNo matter what is happening in our nation today, don’t lose heart. We are still “One Nation Under God” and our best days are ahead. We need to look to the sovereign God for healing and hope. Are you praying for our nation? Are you hoping in his mercy on our nation? Are you saved?
- 462Word PowerGod has entrusted us with incredible power. It is not located in our minds or our biceps. It is located in our mouths. We can either use our words to breathe life or we can use our words to bring death. You don't have to be the smartest or the strongest person to have word power. How have your words been recently? Have you been wise with your words? What have you said about Jesus Christ? Is He your Savior? Is He your Master? Is He your King?
- 463AboundIn today’s message, we’re going to learn that when it says “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,” it’s not talking about overcoming incredible odds or reaching ambitious goals. It’s a declaration of the Christian’s ability to thrive whether one is down or abound. Have you learned how to abound in Christ? It’s not about having things or not having things. It’s about being content in Christ. Is Christ enough for you? Are you saved?
- 464RejoiceTo rejoice through a crisis is a choice that every believer must make. If not, there will be fear and strife. It’s in choosing to rejoice that we have the peace of God and we can see the God of peace. How did you choose to face this crisis? Do you have a reason to rejoice? Are your sins forgiven? Are you saved?
- 465True GainsIn the Christian life, we have to decide what really matters. What are the true gains in the Christian life? True Gains for a believer are knowing Christ and being found in him. Unfortunately, we substitute these gains for things that only lead to self-righteous pride and disunity.
- 466Discipleship 5: ReproducingThroughout our series, on discipleship, we have studied what the signs of a true disciple are. As we approach the last letter, we also approach one of the most important. Followers of Christ should always be producing more followers. The main goal of discipleship is to produce more disciples. Are you a disciple of Jesus? Are you saved? Are you reproducing more disciples? Are you helping others become disciples of Jesus?
- 467Discipleship 3: TogetherA very important part of our Christian faith is unity. Throughout the history of the church, there have been many letters and scriptures to encourage unity among believers. The truth is that we as Christians can't grow alone. We need each other to grow and help us in our walk. The early church understood the value of togetherness. Do you understand the importance of being together in the body of Christ? Are you a part of the body of Christ? Are you saved? What binds us together is the same Holy Spirit. Is he in you?
