Are you a member or disciple of the Lord?

* Luís Alberto Alves

Be honest: you are a member or a disciple of the Lord? If included in the first category is necessary to review their concepts. Members do not enter the Heaven. For a simple reason: they disobeyed the orders of Jesus Christ when He said we should go to the ends of the earth to preach the Gospel to every creature and make disciples!

As we are at the time of religious commercialism. Most Christians think only of getting rich. Few want to pick up the plow and look forward. They are in the church while everything goes in peace, come the first signs of struggle, jump the boat. Some return to the garbage where one day Jesus took them.

The Disciple is different. Even in turbulent times remains focused on the Lord. Ignores the difficulties. You know that they are temporary. After the night, the sun rises radiant the next day. Rejoices in winning souls for the Kingdom of God, as must every person who accepts Jesus Christ as savior eternal. Unfortunately the reality is different.

Member has no commitment to the bride of Christ. It's like mercenary. Are you interested only in the sheep wool. The church for him is the same shopping center or trendy restaurant. Many go to show the new car or speak who traveled to a country on holiday or even to show the new iPhone 6 you bought. You need to choose which team will play.
