Session 4 The Power of Discipleship (42.39)Daryl Bay

Key Verses: 2 Timothy 2:1-7 Introduction

“You then my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus…” (v1) - Command

  • Present tense

  • Passive

The best thing you can do for those you disciple is to have your own heart strong in the gospel of God’s grace

“One of the most important discoveries of my life has been that the Gospel is not just for non-Christians; it’s for Christians too. I used to think the Gospel was simply what non-Christians must believe in to be saved, while afterward we advance to deeper theological waters. But what I’ve come to understand is that once God saves us he doesn’t then move us beyond the Gospel. Rather he moves us deeper into the Gospel. The Gospel, in other words, is every bit as important for growing as a Christian as it is for becoming a Christian in the first place. The Gospel is the fuel that makes Christians go.”

How God’s Grace Strengthens Us (Luke 7:36-50)

Application - Repent of your idols

  • Own your sin and weakness

  • Know how loved and graced you are in Christ

Let the joy of your cancelled debt (“charis”) and your new calling empower you by the Holy Spirit

Session 2 The Personal Cost of Discipleship(47.11)Daryl Bay

Key Verses: 2 Timothy 1:13-2:7 Introduction

Jesus and the Bible shoot straight about the challenge of discipleship. In the New Testament, discipleship is associated with commitment, challenge, adversity, discipline, endurance and faithfulness.

Making disciples is not:- making converts

  • a program

  • just for the professionals

  • optional

  • easy

“Making disciples is not an easy process. It is trying. It is messy. It is slow, tedious, even painful at times. It is all these things because it is relational. Jesus has not given us an effortless step-by-step formula for impacting nations for his glory. He has given us people, and he has said: “Live for them. Love them, serve them, and lead them. Lead them to follow me, and lead them to lead others to follow me. In the process you will multiply the gospel to the ends of the earth.” (David Platt)

Jesus’ Description of Discipleship (Mark 8:34-35)

“34 Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 35 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it.

“When Christ calls a man, He bids him to come and die.” (Dietrich Bonhoeffer)

Paul’s Description of Discipleship (2 Timothy 2:3-6)

Exhibit A: A Soldier (v3-4)

Exhibit B: An Athlete (v5)

Exhibit C: A Hard Working Farmer (v6)

Men's Conference 2017 Build 2017 - Deliberate Discipling 24/03/17 - Camp Toukley

Session 1 The Definition of Discipleship (49.26)Daryl Bay

Key Verses: Matthew 28:18-20, 1 Thessalonians 2:7-13, 2 Timothy 2:1-7 Introduction

What is your little white ball?

Answer: Matthew 28:18-20 - Our marching orders are clear (“make disciples” -> go, baptise, teach)

  • Our mission is focused on Jesus (“All authority on heaven and earth has been given to me…I will be with you always…”)

Three Basic Elements of Discipleship

1. Truth (v2)- 2 Timothy 3:16-17

  • Luke 8:4-21

  • John 8:31-32

  • 2 Corinthians 4:1-6

2. Relationship (v2) - Philippians 4:9

  • 2 Timothy 3:10-11

  • 1 Thessalonians 2:8-10

Philippians 3:17: “Join with others in following my example and take special note of those who live according to the pattern we gave to you.”

3. Multiplication (v2)

Don’t just learn for yourself, learn for others

There is nothing better that you can do with your life than to invest it in making disciples of Jesus Christ

“One of the first verses of Scripture that Dawson Trotman, founder of the Navigators, encouraged me to memorise was: “And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. “ (2 Timothy 2:2 KJV) This is like a mathematical formula for spreading the gospel and enlarging the church. Paul taught Timothy; Timothy shared what he knew with faithful men; these faithful men would then teach others also. And so the process goes on and on. If every believer followed this pattern, the church could reach the entire world in one generation! Mass crusades, in which I believe and to which I have committed my life will never finish the Great Commission; but a one-to-one ministry will.” (Billy Graham)

Session 1 The Feast - (57.48) Brad Carr

Key Verses: Luke 22:1-38

The Passover - the historical backdrop (22:7-13)

The Betrayals - the immediate context (22:1-6, 24-34)

The Last Supper - the key moment (22:14-23)

"The call to 'remember' is Jewish, which the nation did annually in the Passover as they looked back at the Exodus. Such a calling solidifies a community's identity by taking them back to their roots, to events that forged who they have now become. It gives them a chance, as one body, to reaffirm what God has done for them." - Darrell Bock
