“Our deepest calling is not to grow in our knowledge of God. It is to make disciples. Our knowledge will grow -- the Holy Spirit, Jesus promised, will guide us into all truth. But that's not our calling, it is His. Our calling is to prepare the world for Christ's return. The world is not ready yet. And so, we go about introducing a dying world to the Savior of Life. Anything we do toward our own growth must be toward that end.” WorldEndsSpiritJesusGrowsGrowthChristDyingReadyReturnHolyCallingGuidesHoly SpiritSaviorIntroducingDiscipleNot ReadyKnowledge Of God Author:Jeff Bryant
