Thus far in Luke's Gospel, Jesus' ministry has mainly been about come and see.

Crowds have come to see him preach, teach, perform miracles, cast out demons, heal and help those who are suffering

and needy.

And today in Luke 6 12 through 16 Jesus is going to call his 12 disciples to

transition from come and see to go and die and this is an incredibly important sermon these men's lives will change and

history will change with it. We praise God for the come and see opportunities. We like to give things

away online. We like to invite people to church services. We like to invite

people to community groups. We like to invite people to events,

relationships, formal and informal ministry,

and we're all about, come and see, come and check it out.

Come and hear some Bible, some people see some changed lives

Get to know us and what Jesus is doing but at some point and you need to know this I'm not going to be a false salesman at some point to be a

Christian you've got a transition from come and see to go and die and that is you just can't watch other people walk with Jesus,

you have to go walk with him.

You can't just allow other people to serve you,

you need to serve as well.
