Maybe I wasn't clear.
But my point was that the desciples of Jesus are not showing the true colors of a desciple. Thus, the converts just get lost.
I am talking about true desciples, on the path of sanctification.
Today, the problem is that most churches teach how to make converts and after that no followup to help and teach the new saints how to follw Jesus. ( Matt. 28 -> teaching them to follow all that I have commanded ).
Do the desciples today do this ? We all fail misarably. A true desciple will not think about him/her self above Christ and His wants. Self must die.... Self must die..... Only then would the world know the difference between a Christian and a Non-Christian. Today there is no apprent difference, that is why we need tactics like 'magic, entertainment' to draw the crowds... I challenge all of us, including myself, let us ponder upon 'losing our selves' for the sake of Christ, putting Him first in everything.......This is the living Gosple..... -John666
