Zac Poonen - What It Means to Be a Disciple of Jesus
Summary
Zac Poonen contrasts the modern emphasis on believing in Jesus with Jesus's primary call to follow him as a disciple, arguing that true discipleship requires committed obedience to all his commands, not merely intellectual assent. He emphasizes that following Jesus means treating him as a bride treats her bridegroom—with complete devotion and faithfulness—and that God's promise of his constant presence is conditional on making disciples and teaching them to obey everything Christ commanded.
