Matthew 17:16
King James Version
6 Jun 2026
“And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.”
μαθητής
Not just a follower — a learner who becomes like the teacher. The last command Jesus gives is not go and convert — it is go and make mathetes. People who learn from Me, walk like Me, think like Me, love like Me. The mission is not decisions. It is transformation.
