Matthew 23:1
King James Version
8 Jun 2026
“Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,”
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.
