Our Response to Jesus' Call

The very first words that Jesus spoke to his disciples as recorded in Matthew's Gospel are these:

"Come, follow me and I will make you fishers of men." Matthew 4:19 (NIV).

The very last words that Jesus spoke to his disciples before He was taken up into heaven as recorded in Matthew 28:19:

"Go ye therefore into all the world and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey all things that I have commanded you."

It follows that if we are to be effective and obedient disciples of Jesus that we will respond to His call. This call is for every Christian to somehow be connected with the work of soul winning and disciple making.

This is the core of our being ... the reason for our existence as a network ... to establish, empower and equip Christian believers for this spiritually reproductive work.

What's involved?

The activities of those who are linked with the Business Life Network include being part of a Business Life Team or Group which is involved in:

  • Praying for the lost in our workplace, businesses and communities
  • Following the Lord to become a 'living letter' of the Lord Jesus modelling the Life of Jesus to those whom we meet
  • Prayerfully using the opportunities for personal witness to those people whom God brings across our path
  • Participating in Business Alpha and/or Alpha in the Workplace Courses where possible in order to have a 'platform' in which to lead others to Christ
  • Praying with those who are seeking or who are ready to accept Jesus' invitation to receive Him and the Eternal Life He offers
  • Where possible, helping those who have accepted Christ to go on walking with Him in accordance with Colossians 2:6-7 which says:

    "Since you have received Christ Jesus as your Lord, live in Him. Sink your roots down deeply in Him and become stronger in your faith as you were taught - and be filled with thanksgiving."

  • Helping new Christians in a Business Life Group to then start to do what we have been doing so that they can reproduce themselves in others, multiplying disciples of Jesus so that many others will hear the Gospel and God will be glorified.
