About this message
Two fishermen are casting their nets into the Sea of Galilee when Jesus calls them to follow Him, and they leave their nets at once. Returning to Mark 1:14-20, Pastor Vitali names the marks of a true disciple: listening to God's Word, ongoing repentance, continuing to believe the gospel, hearing Christ's voice, denying self, and persevering. Discipleship, he stresses, is not the way to be saved but the fruit of it.
For anyone asking what makes a Christian different from the world.
