Consider the Cost
The Church
The church is made up of the believer who by faith has accepted the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sin thereby becoming a member of the community of faith.
A disciple is then one who is a member of the community of faith that is wholeheartedly following the Lord Jesus Christ daily picking up their cross and becoming conformed to the image of Jesus Christ
The cost to being a disciple is dying to self sot he He might live through us
-33
The Scripture says that there was “a multitude” Ochlos - an undisciplined throng - aimlessly milling around
We see today in many of our churches an undisciplined throng of madness where the Bible has been relegated to the realm of metaphor and imagination while man’s wisdom is elevated to preeminence
We see an acceptance of universalism mocking the suffering and sacrifice of our Savior and blasphemously trampling the blood of Christ under foot demanding that God accept men simply for who they are and not who they can be in Christ
It is refers to those who are “leaderless and rudderless” where the people are said to have no power of judgement living with moral disparagement.

The implication is that there was a mixed crowd following Jesus who did not really understand what it was all about.
They enjoyed the excitement and the fanfare but were unwilling to hear the real message.
It’s easy to follow the crowd but Jesus contrasts this with His following statements:
Relationships can not be more important then following me
There will be a cost in your personal life - what will my family think?
What will happen to me if I follow this man?
Matt
Many will refuse to come because they cannot let go of the life they now live
I remember thinking I could not survive without getting high for one day, my flesh did not want to surrender but my Spirit wanted freedom
The word “to bear” bas ta zo means to exert power indicating an exercise and application of free-will - a choice.
It in no way constitutes a “burden to bear” but rather “to have on oneself” as in the seal of God
You cannot make your salvation more complete by now assuming some type of self-sacrificial action!
- By grace are ye saved and that not of yourself
The word cross “staho” from the root Histemi - means to abide, appoint, continue, covenant, establish, hold-up, stand!
What He is saying here is that your life should reflect the name that you bear!
The believer should be ready to give up even his or her own life in the service of Christ!
The Scripture has nothing to do with suffering for my sake but rather suffering for His sake
We willing chose the scorn of the cross, the ridicule of the world and those around us, and we set our sights on things above not here below
And that through the power of the Holy Spirit!
Jesus said
Not let them see your self-serving religious facade!
Man says that if it looks good on the outside then the inside is OK
Jesus said that if it is good on the inside the outside will be OK!
Before
Where is the good news in now that your sin is forgiven you must
Our battle before was with God so that we might be free to sin
Our battle now is with sin so that we might be free to serve God!
We are not undisciplined aimlessly walking through this life!
Is your life speaking the truth that you are looking for a heavenly country?
Are you looking back from where you came and desiring the fruits of sin?
Remember that you are now the bearer of the cross, the mark of God walking in the midst of the darkness of this age!
