The only way to be followers of Jesus

Sunday marked the conclusion of a 5-month study into who we are as believers. It was called our “DNA” series. The following is a summary:

Our purpose as believers is to glorify God.

Our mission is to make followers of Jesus.

Our vision is to love God, love people, and go into the world.

Because we love God, we are learners, prayers, worshippers, and givers.

Because we love people, we are relaters and servers.

And we go into the world to become reproducers.

This is not just having programs at church. Christ has to be changing our lives. These things must become our values. We must be all of these.

So how do we become this type of person? We are completely dependent on God to do His spiritual work in His church and in our lives, because only God can do it.

We boast in God and praise His name. God takes pleasure when we trust him completely. Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord. Cursed is the one who trusts in man.
