      INTRODUCTION

      What does it mean to be a believer?

      What does it mean to be a Disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ?

      What does it mean to be a Christian?

      Can one be a Christian and not be a Disciple?

      Can one be a believer and not be a Christian?

      Can one be a Disciple and not be a Christian?

      How does one become a believer?

      How does one become a disciple?

      How does one become a Christian?

      What is a born again Christian?

      Does being a born again Christian come after being a Christian; after being a Disciple; or when?

      So many questions that are at the very root of our faith, yet most today cannot answer them. How can a person claim to be of the faith of the Lord Jesus Christ and yet not understand the answers to these questions?

      The question I seek to cover here is that of Are you sure you are a believer? What does it take to be a believer? Why be a believer? And what is the cost of being a believer? Yet if you cannot answer the previous questions, you cannot even begin to understand the concepts involved in the what, the how, and the cost.

      Many of today's churches preach the easy road to heaven: But what about the Bible? What about the very book---the word of God---that they are supposedly preaching about? Does the Bible say the easy road to heaven? Does the Bible say that only Christians will go to Heaven? Does it say that only Disciples will go to Heaven? Or maybe it says that only born again Christians will go to Heaven? Do you know??? Does it say that it is easy to go to Heaven? Does The Bible say...say this phrase, click your heels three times and you're off to heaven? Halleluiah, let's ride!!!

      I'm going to cover, at least in part, the above questions. I need to bring you to the point of understanding on these issues that will allow you to understand the concept of the cost of Discipleship. Then I will discuss what is involved, and the high cost as laid out by
