Jesus invited His first followers into relationship with him and promised that they would experience great things. Jesus came into the world to call sinners to repentance and to lay down His life on their behalf so that they might be saved. Likewise, as His followers, we tell others about Jesus and call on them to turn from their sin and trust in Jesus. Because Jesus gave up His life for us and we have committed to following Him, our lives are to be marked by sacrifice as we are willing to do whatever God calls on us to do as we invest in others so that they might become disciples of Jesus.
