A TRUE DISCIPLE OF CHRIST

Richard Wurmbrand, now with the Lord, was in prison in Romania during the Communist era following WWII, and he was sharing the faith with another prisoner who had been severely disappointed by the conduct of a priest in a prison where he was previously incarcerated.
Wurmbrand’s response to him was that “not every man in holy order has a priestly heart, nor were all who called themselves “Christians” really disciples of Christ, in the true sense of the word. A man who visits a barber to be shaved, or a man who orders a suit from a tailor, is not a disciple, but a customer. So, also, one who comes to the Savior only to be saved is the Savior’s customer, not His disciple.

A disciple is one who says to Christ, ‘How I long to do work like Yours! ~ To go from place to place taking away fear; bringing instead joy, truth, comfort, and life eternal’”

and all these things will be added unto you.”
