Commitment there's a word
Lord,
Can I talk to you a bit more about commitment?
What exactly would you say
Makes a good disciple?
I guess its about
Keeping the rules
Attending church every Sunday
Praying a lot?
Keeping the Ten Commandments?
Is it actually true
That you once asked a guy to sell up everything he owned
And give all the money he made to the poor?
That must have taken some nerve?
I mean to ask someone to sell all their possession
It gives a whole new meaning to the idea of travelling light.
So commitment in your book has financial implication?
Some of your ideas are challenging to say the least
Turning the other cheek
Loving your enemies
Accepting strangers as neighbours
You say
It's not about rules and achieving
Nothing to do with rule keeping at all?
I find that strange
I know some disciples that
are into rule keeping in a big way
Have they got it wrong Lord?
Could you explain this grace thing to me
It all sounds too easy
Live anyway and God accepts you.
Ah you say ‘ no' to that
What do you mean?
You can only live one way
The right way !
Because God accepts you
Are you saying when we know God has accepted us
We want to live a totally new way out of gratitude.
Ah !
That's an interesting motivator
Can we talk about this again ?
