Training in Christlikeness is the intentional, effective process that teaches followers to "hear and do" everything Jesus said was best.
Imagine discovering in your church bulletin an announcement of a six-week seminar on how to genuinely bless someone who is spitting on you.
to teach people to do something is to bring them to the point where they actually do it on the appropriate occasions.They do it & do it well
it is human nature to resist deep inward change, for such change threatens our sense of personal identity.
The fact is that there now is lacking a serious and expectant intention to bring Jesus' people into obedience and abundance through training
the seriously thought out intention-not just a vague idea or wish-to actually bring about fullness of life in Christ must be reestablished.
If we cannot break through to a new vision of faith and discipleship, the significance and power of the gospel can never come into its own.
"Train them to do everything I have told you" it must be possible to train disciples to routinely do everything Jesus said was best.
In order to make disciples a church needs a curriculum for Christlikeness.
