‘The Necessity Of Discipleship Training.’
Matthew 5:1-2.
a) Jesus saw the multitudes and crowds. He wanted
to be away from them. Not for His Own sake, but for His Disciples.
b) Jesus went up the mountain and sat down by
Himself.
c) Then His Disciples came to Him.
d) Then He began to Teach His Disciples very
practical and necessary things.
(This
Second one reminds me of The Necessity Of Discipleship Training)
Chris.
Jesus
saw the multitudes and crowds and He wanted to be away from them. A little
later we read that Jesus saw multitudes and crowds and had compassion on them. These
are very different statements. Before He began His Ministry to the multitudes
Jesus wanted to have His Disciples ready. They needed to be ready to assist Him
in the Ministry, and ready to start the work of the Early Church after His
Ascension. Matthew Chapters 5 to 7 are great Disciple Training Chapters.
