Design for
Discipleship
Matthew 28: 18-19 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in
heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make
disciples of all nations, baptizing them in] the name of the Father and of
the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything
I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very
end of the age."

Jesus is a person - God
        • John 1 1-5 In the beginning was the
          Word, and the Word was with God,
          and the Word was God. He was with
          God in the beginning. Through him
          all things were made; without him
          nothing was made that has been
          made. In him was life, and that life
          was the light of men. The light shines
          in the darkness, but the darkness
          has not understood it.

Jesus is a person –
    The Christ – The Anointed One
         • Matthew 16:13-16 When Jesus came to
           the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked
           his disciples, "Who do people say the Son
           of Man is?" They replied, "Some say John
           the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still
           others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets."
         • "But what about you?" he asked. "Who do
           you say I am?"
         • Simon Peter answered, "You are the
           Christ,[a] the Son of the living God."

Jesus is a person - Supreme
        • Colossians 1:15-20 He is the image
          of the invisible God, the firstborn
          over all creation. For by him all
          things were created: things in
          heaven and on earth, visible and
          invisible, whether thrones or powers
          or rulers or authorities; all things
          were created by him and for him. He
          is before all things, and in him all
          things hold together. ……

Jesus is a person - Supreme
        • Colossians 1:15-20 …..And he is the
          head of the body, the church; he is
          the beginning and the firstborn from
          among the dead, so that in
          everything he might have the
          supremacy. For God was pleased to
          have all his fullness dwell in him, and
          through him to reconcile to himself
          all things, whether things on earth or
          things in heaven, by making peace
          through his blood, shed on the cross.

        Man on a mission…
        • All of the recorded miracles done
          through men by God put together do
          not equal the miracles done through
          Jesus in less than three years. Not
          as many, not as varied, not as
          consistently, and not is as short a
          time frame were acts of God done
          through a single man before Him or
          since.

Jesus is a person - Friend
   • John 15:9-17 "As the Father has loved
     me, so have I loved you. ….. You are my
     friends if you do what I command. I no
     longer call you servants, because a
     servant does not know his master's
     business. Instead, I have called you
     friends, for everything that I learned from
     my Father I have made known to you.
     You did not choose me, but I chose you
     …... Then the Father will give you
     whatever you ask in my name. This is my
     command: Love each other.
