የክርስቶስ ደቀ መዛሙርት (ማለትም ክርስቲያኖች) አዕምሮአቸውን ተገቢ በሆነ መልኩ ቢጠቀሙ ክርስቲያናዊ ጥሪያቸውን የበለጠ በመግለጽ የደቀ መዝሙርነት ጥሪያቸውን ይወጣሉ ከዚህም በተጨማሪ በሚኖሩበት በማኅበረሰብ የተሻለን/የላቀን ለውጥ (ተጽእኖ) ማምጣት ይችላሉ።

“እናንተ ግን ከጨለማ ወደ አስደናቂ ብርሃኑ የጠራችሁን የእግዚአብሔርን ታላቅ ሥራ እንድታውጁ የተመረጠ ትውልድ፣ የንጉሥ ካህናት፣ ቅዱስ ሕዝብ፣ እግዚአብሔር ለራሱ የለያችሁ ሕዝብ ናችሁ።”
1 ጴጥሮስ 2:9 NASV
#የተጠራነው የእርሱን በጎነት/ታለቅ የማዳን ስራ/ እንድናውጅ ነው፡፡ ለዚህ ነው #የተመረጥነው፡፡

እንደ አማኝ ቀዳሚ አላማችን ደቀ መዛሙርት መሆን እና ማድረግ ነው፤ እንጂ ቤተ ክርስቲያን አይደለም። #ደቀመዝሙርነት #ደቀመዝሙርነት እና #ደቀመዝሙርነት ብቻ ነው የክርስቶስ ሃሳብ።

ከሚናስበው በላይ የሚያደርግ ጌታ አለን፡፡ ስለዚህ የምንፈልገውን ከመጠየቅ አንስነፍ፡፡

“በቤተ ክርስቲያን እንዲሁም በክርስቶስ ኢየሱስ፣ በዘመናት ሁሉ ከዘላለም እስከ ዘላለም ለእርሱ ክብር ይሁን፤ አሜን።”
ኤፌሶን 3:21

“Imagine if You checked your BIBLE as much as You Checked Instagram and Facebook.”

“ጽድቅን የሚራቡና የሚጠሙ ብፁዓን ናቸው፤ ይጠግባሉና።”
ማቴዎስ 5:6 NASV

ውድ የሀየር ሚሽን ቤተሰቦች፤ እንኳን ለጌታችን ኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ ሞት እና ትንሳኤ መታሰቢያ በዓል በሰላም አደረሳችሁ፡፡ በዓሉን ስናከብር ከመብላት ባለፈ የመምጣቱን ሚስጥር በመግለፅ በተግባር እንድናስበው ምኞቴ ነው፡፡ ”ነገር ግን እርሱ ስለ መተላለፋችን ተወጋ፤ ስለ በደላችንም ደቀቀ፤ በእርሱ ላይ የወደቀው ቅጣት ለእኛ ሰላም አመጣልን፤ በእርሱም ቍስል እኛ ተፈወስን።“ ኢሳይያስ 53:5
ድል ልሰጠን ደግሞ ሞትን ድል አድርጎ ተነሳ፡፡
መልካም በዓል!

ንስሐ ማለት የይቅርታን መማፀን ብቻ ሳይሆን፤ ደግመን ያንኑ ኃጢአት አለመስራት ነው። ፍቅር ማለት አለመጣላት ብቻ ሳይሆን በይቅርታ መኖር ነው።

“የርኅራኄ አባት፣ የመጽናናትም ሁሉ አምላክ የሆነው የጌታችን የኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ አምላክና አባት ይባረክ።”
2 ቆሮንቶስ 1:3 NASV

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,”
2 Corinthians 1:3 NIV

“Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will praise him, my Savior and God.”
Psalms 42:11 NIV

The psalmist is in trouble (as seen in the above verses). But instead of presenting more compliant to God while his soul is suffering, he challenged his soul to put its hope in God.

True #discipleship is putting our faith in God in whatever situation we pass through. He is our hope, our fortress and our saviour.
#disciplship

“When you pass through deep waters, I will be with you; your troubles will not overwhelm you. When you pass through fire, you will not be burned; the hard trials that come will not hurt you.” Isaiah 43:2 GNTD

It says you will pass through deep water and fire. That means we will pass through trouble, and it won’t affect us when we pass.

Discipleship is not life out of trouble but growing in trouble.

#discipleship

#imitation: We imitate what we love. Let's imitate not what's bad but what's good for us from God. We are children of God, who is good.
#discipleship is #imitating #christ

“Mankind, he has told each of you what is good and what it is the Lord requires of you: to act justly, to love faithfulness, and to walk humbly with your God.”
Micah 6:8 CSB
God doesn’t require a lots of things from us. Just a few things, #Justice, #faithfulness and #humility. #discipleship is simply obeying what is required.

“Get the truth and never sell it; also get wisdom, discipline, and good judgment.”
Proverbs 23:23 NLT

Buy it and treasure it; never sell it. These are very key for godliness in our lives. What an excellent guidance!

#discipleship

“Jesus said to the Jews who believed in him, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teaching. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
John 8 : 31 - 32 CEB
Knowledge of him #truth will set us free. And that knowledge comes from #remaining in him, which is true #discipleship.

#love
“Love is #patient, love is #kind. It does not #envy, it does not #boast, it is not #proud. It does not #dishonor others; it is not #self-seeking; it is not easily #angered; it keeps no #record of wrongs. Love does not delight in #evil but rejoices with the #truth. It always #protects, always #trusts, always #hopes, always #perseveres. Love never #fails.
1Cor. 13:4-87 NIV

#love love love!
#discipleship_inspirational

Discipleship is a lifetime journey. Like the natural process, spiritual life starts with being #born again. No one is born as an adult; we all start as infants and grow. In other words, #discipleship is the growth process. We grow to the fullness of Christ, as the Bible says.
So, what stage of growth are you at? Is your growth average? How healthy is your spirit?
Think about such questions.

Absolutely, prayer is simply not a matter of words. It involves approaching God with complete honesty and humility.
