Last Sunday was one of the best sermons that I've heard. The speaker spoke on some basic distinctions that make us Christians. I recalled once there was a pastor raised a thought-provoking question to his congregation. He asked,"Who among you here are disciples of Christ?". No one raised his/her hands. He smiled as if he had expected this.
"Who then are the workers of Christ?" A few hands went up, and these are the full time workers and some leaders of the church.
"Let me ask another question. Who are Christians?" This time round, all church members raised their hands. He was relieved and said, "When I asked who are the disciples and the workers of Christ, none of you dared to raised your hand. Don't you all realize that all these three questions mean the same?"
Indeed, when we say we are the children of God, we are also saying we are the disciples of Christ. We are His workers. So a Christian is also a disciple.
