Are you known on your job as a follower of Christ and a kingdom rep?

Dr. Tony Evans says every believer possesses a life-giving message the world needs to hear.

We need kingdom representatives who will take the king into every sphere of life without delay.

This is the alternative broadcast featuring the timeless biblical teachings from the archives of Dr. Tony Evans.

Salvation is a free gift from God with no strings attached.

But today, Dr. Evans explains that following Christ here on earth comes at a price that not everyone is willing to pay.

Let's join him as he begins.

Today I want to talk about unleashing kingdom commitment from Luke 9, beginning with verse 57 to 62.

Because Jesus has a conversation with three people. They're all gathered there together and they're listening to one

another. And in this conversation with three people, Jesus wants them to really understand what

commitment is really all about. In each one of these three, the word follow will show up.

The issue is following Christ.

And he will connect following Christ to the kingdom,

to the jurisdiction of God's rule.

And so the issue is following him.

Let's clarify as we get started, the issue is not him following you.

The issue is you, me, us following him.

Now the reason why that's very important is if following him is not the goal,

then discipleship cannot occur.

Because it's about following him and we live in a day when people want the Lord to follow them as opposed to following him. We're told in verse 57 of

Luke 9 as they were going along the road, someone said to him,

I will follow you wherever you go.
