Discipleship: Submission to God and Leaders

This document discusses discipleship and submission to God and leaders. It states that submission should be to God through leaders, not to leaders alone or God alone. It provides biblical passages about coming to God for rest, submitting to governing authorities as instituted by God, and Jesus having all authority and commanding disciples to make disciples. The key points are: submit to God by submitting to appointed leaders, and one must first be a disciple themselves and subject to authority before trying to make other disciples.

DISCIPLESHIP

SHIFT
What needs to come
first?
Is it submission to
GOD or submission
to your leaders?
The answer is:
NIETHER.
It should be your
submission to GOD
through your
LEADERS.
Your submission to
GOD should reflect
on your submission to
your GOD
APPOINTED
LEADERS.
- Pastor Jerome Cepeda
Matthew 11:28-30 NIV
28 "Come to me, all you who are
weary and burdened, and I will give
you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you and learn
from me, for I am gentle and humble
in heart, and you will find rest for your
souls.
30 For my yoke is easy and my burden
is light."

This is where I came from..
Broken relationships

And I’m
already calling
myself a
“CHRISTIAN”
1Corinthians 6:11
11 Some of you were once
like that, but you were
cleansed; you were made
holy; you were made right
with GOD by calling on the
name of the LORD JESUS
CHRIST and by the Spirit of
our GOD.
Romans 13:1-2 NIV
1Let everyone be subject to the governing
authorities, for there is no authority except
that which God has established. The
authorities that exist have been established
by God.
2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the

authority is rebelling against what God has


instituted, and those who do so will bring
judgment on themselves.
My discipleship
story…
What we need to
remember:
1. submit to GOD by
submitting to His appointed
leaders.
Matthew 9:13 NIV
13 But go and learn what
this means: 'I desire
mercy, not sacrifice.' For I
have not come to call the
righteous, but sinners."
Matthew 28:18-20 NIV

18 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All


authority in heaven and on earth has been
given to me.
19 Therefore go and make disciples of all

nations, baptizing them in the name of the


Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
20 and teaching them to obey everything I

have commanded you. And surely I am with


you always, to the very end of the age."
We can’t go
making disciples
if we are not
disciples
ourselves.
What we need to
remember:
1. submit to GOD by submitting
to His appointed leaders.
2. If we want to go and make
disciples, we should first be
disciples and be subject to
authority.
