THE PILGRIMS GUIDE SATURDAY APRIL 18, 2026 LIVING AS A TRUE DISCIPLE IN A COSTLY WORLD A WORD FROM THE WORD: "Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the infinite value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ." Philippians 3:8 NLT. In going extra mile for the sake of the Gospel of God's Kingdom, you must be willing to count the cost, and pay the price, no matter what it may costs you. This can come in the form of trials, temptations, persecutions etc. The Gospel cost the early apostles, disciples and missionaries their lives yet they counted it not as loss but gain. For Paul the apostle, he was willing to put up with anything for the sake of the Gospel. What price are you willing to pay as a disciple of the LORD Jesus, for the sake of the Gospel? PRAYER BULLETS: LORD Jesus, please keep me committed to love You more, and give me the willingness to pay whatever price required of me in following You.
