The Meaning of Discipleship

Mat 10:24"A talmid is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.

Mat 10:25

Mat 10:26 Therefore don't be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed; and hidden that will not be known.

Mat 10:31Therefore don't be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.

Mat 10:33But whoever denies me before men, him I will also deny before my Father who is in heaven.

(Luk 12:51–53; 14:26, 27 )

Mat 10:34"Don't think that I came to send shalom on the eretz. I didn't come to send shalom, but a sword.
