I have learned in my 8 year Christian life that the key of successful disipleship is to read the Bible daily and strive to practice everything what you have learned. Of course some takes time to change right away i,g. fruit of spirit, love, joy, peace, etc.. But we have many things that we can change right away like our lifestyles. The Bible will guide you how your life need to be changed. If we are not willing to change according to Jesus' teachings, our life as His servants is futile.Thank you
