What is a Disciple?
A Follower
Someone who is born again (John 3:1-18), and adheres to the teachings of Jesus. Someone who, because of God’s grace, conforms their words and ways to to words and ways of Jesus. Or, as others have put it in the past, disciples of Jesus are themselves to be “little Christs” (Acts 26:28, 2 Corinthians 1:21).
A Worshiper
Someone whose response to Jesus is worship. Like the blind man in John 9, they respond in worship when confronted with Jesus. And like the woman at the well in John 4, they respond in worship in Spirit and in Truth.
A Witness
Someone who by their actions show love to their neighbor. They serve those around them. By their words they speak truth in love to their neighbor. They are ambassadors of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17-20).
