he 
was 
called 
to 
discipleship

Growth 
starts 
with 
personal 
soul 
winning. 
3 
Growth 
continues 
as 
we 
watch 
and 
imitate 
Jesus.

Jesus 
went 
outside 
to 
be 
alone 
and 
pray. 
5 
Peter 
asked 
questions, 
he 
wasn’t 
worried 
about 
looking 
foolish

Jesus 
washing 
the 
feet 
of 
the 
disciples 
7 
Jesus 
saying 
that 
one 
of 
them 
would 
betray 
Him. 
In 
this 
section, 
we 
see 
Peter 
indicating 
that 
John 
should 
ask 
Jesus 
who 
was 
the 
betrayer.

In

Mark

and 
John

-- 
We 
read 
about 
Jesus 
feeding 
the 
5,000 
men 
plus 
women 
and 
children. 
This 
was 
when 
people 
refused 
to 
let 
them 
have 
time 
to 
morn. 
10 
The 
disciples 
were 
required 
to 
participate 
in 
the 
ministry. 
Those 
who 
do 
not 
participate 
do 
not 
grow. 
11 
Following 
that, 
Jesus 
forced 
them 
out 
on 
the 
lake 
where 
they 
were 
afraid 
to 
die. 
God 
tests 
us 
when 
we 
are 
weak 
and 
afraid. 
12 
In 
Matthew 
16:22-23 
and 
Mark 
8:32-33, 
we 
read: 
“Peter 
took 
him, 
and 
began 
to 
rebuke 
him, 
saying, 
Be 
it 
far 
from 
thee, 
Lord: 
this 
shall 
not 
be 
unto 
thee.” 
The 
Bible 
is 
always 
right, 
especiall 
when 
it 
goes 
against 
our 
religious 
traditions 
13 
Parts 
of 
the 
Bible 
must 
be 
understood 
spiritually 
14 
We 
must 
gain 
spiritual 
discernment 
15 
You 
must 
be 
willing 
to 
give 
up 
everything 
in 
this 
world 
for 
your 
relationship 
with 
Jesus 
16 
You 
are 
promissed 
blessings 
if 
you 
do 
prior 
point 
17 
Don't 
waste 
time 
fighting 
wrongs 
in 
this 
world 
18 
use 
Biblical 
forgiveness 
19 
You 
must 
have 
true 
spiritual 
life 
and 
not 
just 
outward 
physical 
signs 
20 
You 
must 
have 
an 
effective 
prayer 
life 
21 
You 
must 
adapt 
to 
the 
local 
culture 
for 
the 
application 
of 
the 
Gospel
