Are You A Born-Again Disciple Of Jesus?











If you are really BORN AGAIN in Christ Jesus and filled of God's heavenly NATURE, then the passion for spending INTIMATE TIME with GOD by meditating on his Word and praying in his Spirit daily; and the passion for being the LIGHT and a faithful WITNESS of Jesus by preaching the Gospel to the lost at every opportunity, will be a REALITY in your LIFE!! (Read John 3:1-21.)

What JESUS said about it?

““Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?” Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall LOVE the LORD your GOD with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall LOVE your NEIGHBOUR as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”” (Matthew 22:36-40)

"But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will WORSHIP the FATHER in Spirit and Truth; for the Father is seeking such to WORSHIP Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in Spirit and Truth.”” (John 4:23-24)

 "You are the LIGHT of the WORLD. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let YOUR LIGHT so shine before men, that they may see YOUR GOOD WORKS [of the Kingdom] and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14-16)

“But you shall receive POWER when the HOLY SPIRIT has come upon you; and you shall be my WITNESSES in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” (Acts 1:8)

What the apostle PAUL said about it?

"For by GRACE you have been SAVED through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works [of your own], lest anyone should boast. For we are His WORKMANSHIP, created in Christ Jesus to DO GOOD WORKS [of worshipping God and preaching the Gospel], which God prepared beforehand that we SHOULD WALK in them.” (Ephesians 2:8-10)

“Therefore by Him let us continually offer the SACRIFICE of PRAISE to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name. But do not forget to DO GOOD and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” (Hebrews 13:15-16)

“For the LOVE of CHRIST COMPELS us, because we judge thus: that if Jesus died for all, then all died; and He died for all, that THOSE who live SHOULD LIVE no longer for themselves, but FOR JESUS who died for them and rose again. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 

Now all things are of God, who has RECONCILED us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the MINISTRY of RECONCILIATION, that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the MESSAGE of RECONCILIATION. 

Now then, we are AMBASSADORS of CHRIST, as though God were pleading the world through us: 'We implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God!'" (2Corinthians 5:14-15,17-20)

"How then shall they CALL on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they BELIEVE in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they HEAR without anyone PREACHING to them? And how shall they PREACH unless they are SENT? As it is written: “How beautiful are the FEET of those who PREACH the GOSPEL of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!”” (Romans 10:14-15)
