Living the Gospel: Full Commitment to Jesus

📖 Introduction

Welcome to this 3-day Bible study on the Gospels, the heart of the New Testament that reveals the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—invite us into a transformational journey, not just to learn about Jesus but to follow Him wholly.

The focus of this study revolves around Luke 9:62, where Jesus said, “No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.” This powerful metaphor reminds us that following Jesus requires full commitment and unwavering focus. Like a plowman who must keep his eyes forward to furrow straight lines, so must every disciple keep their heart set fully on Christ.

As we dive into the Gospel narratives over the next three days, we'll explore Jesus’ call to steadfastness, examine examples of wholehearted following, and reflect on the challenges that competing distractions can pose. These Scriptures show us that following Jesus is not a casual or half-hearted endeavor; it means surrendering our past, our fears, and even our personal ambitions to embrace His will completely.

Whether you are new to faith or have walked with Jesus for years, these passages offer fresh insight and encouragement to live a life marked by courage, persistence, and love. Let us open our hearts to let the Spirit guide us as we look forward, not backward, to serve God’s kingdom faithfully.
