Presentation transcript:

“Our work begins where God’s grace has laid the foundation; we are not to save souls, but to disciple them. Salvation and sanctification are the work of God’s sovereign grace; our work as His disciples is to disciple lives until they are completely yielded and surrendered to God. One life wholly yielded to God is of more value to God than 100 lives simply awakened by His Spirit. God brings us to a standard of life by His grace and we are responsible for reproducing that standard in others.”

New Oxford American Dictionary, "disciple" means "follower, adherent, believer, student, supporter."
