The Heart of Discipleship: Love as the True Mark of a Follower
There's so many things that we can use to categorise and to classify a disciple of Jesus. But Jesus made this very simple because if you left it up to us, we would start crossing out people. You're not a disciple of Jesus, you're not a disciple of Jesus. But Jesus said there's one characteristic, just one characteristic that they love, the one characteristic of the disciples of Jesus.
Ever wondered what truly sets apart a disciple of Jesus? In this heartfelt episode of 'Few Minutes for Jesus', host Justin Raghoo dives into a topic that cuts through all the noise: love. Forget about appearances, eloquence, or educational background. Justin explains that the one defining characteristic of a disciple is their love for others, a love guided by the Holy Spirit. This isn't just any kind of love; it's unconditional, expecting nothing in return.
Justin challenges listeners to reflect this love in their daily lives, putting others first and even loving their enemies. By doing so, they align with God's standards and showcase the fruit of the Spirit. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to deepen their faith and understand what it truly means to follow Jesus.
