| Bible Study: To Be A Disciple |
By: Evangelist W.C. “Dub” Dellinger

So many want to be a Disciple. But not doubting Thomas. The Disciple is not above his Master, or the servant above his Lord. (Do only if you are called). You can expect to be criticized, any true workman of a Living God suffers that. Be sure you are right, then go forward. Your Lord does not play around with his calling. When called you are only to do good by the master power. Matthew 10:25 says: “It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?” There will be a price to pay. First by your Lord’s help you must conquer yourself. How? By dying to the world and its habits. When you are a chosen disciple there is nothing hid from you as long as you don’t hold back. Some have to forget some things they have been told all their life. You are compelled to stick with a good Bible even if you do not understand the point at first. The Lord says Reborn, Saved first, then Acts 2 comes in. Always in that order. If you understand this as your Lords wants you to, you are up the ladder some already. No other way can, or will do, for him. Your Lord wants you to put your whole self in your work for him, as David of old did. Read Psalm 26 and listen to a man that God claimed as prophet. Don’t just look for Miracles at once. God is picking or choosing you to help in his work is a miracle. He has faith in you because he knows what lies ahead and it is up to you to provide yourself to him, come what may you will always be True Blue as the saying goes. Time may come that you may have to stand alone, and if you are right and you do not fool him you will come out on top and bring others with you. Prayer must always be in order. Pray a prayer, do not just say a prayer.
