John 8:31 KJV
Then said Jesus
to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my
disciples indeed;
When these people heard Jesus speak the Bible says many of them believed
on Him. But Jesus was not impressed. His interest was not in professions but in
continuance. He said if they continued in His Word they were disciples
indeed.
The goal of the witness and soul winner is not a number of professions
but to see people continue in the Word of God. It is not to mark in a book how
many people we have heard say the sinner's prayer, but to urge those who have
believed to continue in God's Word.
Have you believed? Then continue in God's Word. No one is a disciple of
the Lord who has merely believed. Discipleship is a lifetime commitment.
We begin with our profession of faith but we continue in believing and
conforming to and obeying the Word of God.
Then you are a disciple indeed
