About this sermon

Andrew Wommack’s daily TV program: Gospel Truth To subscribe to Andrew’s email newsletter: http://www.awmi.net/youtube-subscribe/ If you always thought believers and disciples were one and the same, you might be shocked to find out that Jesus would disagree with you. The truth He describes in John 8:31-32 reveals the reason so many believers aren’t walking in freedom. They’ve never understood that discipleship is the path to freedom. How does that work? Find out in this exciting series! 00:43 This week, I'm going to be talking about ‘Discipleship’, which I know that that isn't most people's most favorite thing, but it's really what we need. We need to become disciples, learners of Jesus. 2:04 John 8:31, “Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on Him, ‘If you continue in My Word, then are ye My disciples indeed’”… He says there's people who claim to be disciples, but they aren't true disciples. If you want to be a disciple, indeed, a true disciple, you have to “continue in My Word, then are ye My disciples indeed; and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free”. You'll often hear people say that, “the truth will make you free”, but it's only the truth you know that makes you free and it's only when you continue in the Word that you become a disciple. 3:13 Matthew 28:19, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen”. You know, by virtue of the fact that these are some of the very last words that Jesus spoke to His disciples, this had to be super important… it's the last thing He was ever going to say to them while He was still here on the earth and it was basically a commission to go out and make disciples. 5:49 Discipleship is the path to freedom. That's a big statement right there. 7:31 I'm telling you, if you become a disciple indeed, you get set free. 9:46 This is talking about more than just intellectual knowledge. It's talking about experiential knowledge. You continue in the Word, you will experience God. You will experience healing. You will experience peace. You will experience all of these things, but it comes through the renewing of our mind. 19:05 The Lord didn't call us to get people saved; He called us to make disciples. Now, you can't be a disciple if you aren't saved and so that is a part of it, but it was never meant to be the goal. God never told us to go out and just get people saved. He told us to go make disciples. ============================================ Andrew Wommack Ministries http://www.awmi.net/ https://awme.net/ https://www.facebook.com/AWMinistries https://twitter.com/andrewwommack https://instagram.com/andrewwommack/ https://www.pinterest.com/andrewwommack/ ====================================================== https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOER0yhdOW6Au1VtKx-A64xCs8rL_aA0N
