The Making of a Disciple – Barry McGaffin
Discipleship Series Theme: Listening to the Words of Jesus
Series Question: What did Jesus really say?
Today’s Message: The Making of a Disciple — The formula: i+a+p=d
Jesus’ identity + Jesus’ authority + Jesus’ presence = a disciple!
Today’s Text: Matthew 28:16-20
Due to a technical glitch, the first few minutes of the sermon were missed from the audio recording. Here is a summation of the first few minutes.
This week, Pastor Barry introduced us to the new series on Discipleship. He started off by asking us, “Do you like Jesus?” (Of course we do!) Then he asked us if we like the words of Jesus. (Yes, we do…Jesus says some really wonderful things “Come to me all who are burdened…and I will give you rest.” “Father forgive them, they don’t know what they are doing.” “I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” and more…)
Then Ps Barry asked us if we like EVERYTHING Jesus says!! (…There were some delayed, reluctant responses here… 
…)
We can be pretty selective about the words of Jesus. We pick and choose the ones we like, but what about ALL the words of Jesus? We really like Jesus but, honestly, He says some very difficult, tough, even apparently impossible things! For example the series theme verses:
“Then Jesus came to them and said, `All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father
and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teach them to obey everything I have commanded you.
And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
— Matthew 28:18-20 (emphases added)
We say to ourselves, “But I can’t make anyone do anything! Sometimes not even myself!?”
The saying goes, “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink; you can send kids to school but you can’t make them think.” You can bring people (husband, wife, kid) to church but you can’t make them disciples! We need Jesus’ help here!
Today’s Message: The Making of a Disciple — The formula: i+a+p=d
Jesus’ identity + Jesus’ authority + Jesus’ presence = a disciple!
But note that Jesus is the disciple maker – we are disciples of the disciple maker!
Today’s Text: Matthew 28:16-20 … the recording starts with Ps. Barry explaining the context and the situation coming into these verses.

2012 is a brand new year and we get to celebrate it with baptisms this morning! One of the great things about baptism is that it takes us all back to the fundamental basics of believing in Jesus as our Lord and Saviour. Those basics involve the spiritual actions of stopping, starting and seeing.
