Strategy for disciple making
Win - Winning people to Christ
Build - Growing our relationship with Christ
Equip - Skills and the ability to trach those skills to other
Multiply - finding a Joshua - Leader replaced - Free to serve more

*Won to Christ, built up, equipped with skills, then going out to win more to Christ

Gospel Identity
Image - New Creation, to reflect God to the world
Worship - What I give to God after he gives to me - All of life outpuring to God
Community - fellowship where Christ is reflected to other believers
Mission - Jesus' mission to seek worshippers, we can join in with his empowering grace

Sanctification - Discipleship Lesson #1
Goal is to learn this and be able to apply it to a particular situation
Word->Convictions->Values->Prioroties
Example: People are image bearers->God loves poeple->People are important->making disciples

Model of sactification
We are all justified by grace (Rom3, Eph 2:5-10)
There is a difference in my standing before God at conversion, there is also a difference in my moral state of growing in Christ Likeness
I an perfect in god's sight, but I am not a perfect child of God
Holiness is my whole point of a Christian
All believers are indwelt by the holy spirit - but at times we can become more filled with the spirit
Perfection is impossible here on earth
The spirit allow holiness for all christians
there is a difference between willful sin and depraved character - temptation is not sin

*asymptotic maturation of the chirstian

My position is in Christ
My standing is sactifying in Christ

My ethical and moral position is being drawn closer ot Christ
Let us cleanse ourselves of sin and evil
Go dwill be with us
