It is our obedience to God's commandments that makes us true disciples of Jesus Christ. Yes, it is obedience that makes a true disciple. To be considered a disciple, one must be obedient to the master. That spirit of obedience and the willingness to carry out all the instructions the master is the key factor for one to be considered as a true disciple.
If I say that I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, I must see myself as someone who always obey the doctrines of Jesus Christ. I must submit myself to the will of Jesus Christ. I must live in this world just to obey the instructions of God. Because a disciple is someone who is made from obedience.
Like Bro Eli Soriano told us, it out obedience to all the commandments of God that will make us the disciples of Jesus Christ. A disciple is not just an ordinary name. A disciple is someone who obeys the doctrines of Jesus Christ. So, to be qualified as the disciple of Jesus Christ, let us begin to obey the doctrines of Jesus Christ.
