Cheap grace is grace without discipleship.
Being a Christan is less about cautiously avoiding sin than about courageously and actively doing God's will.
The essence of grace, we suppose, is that the account has been paid in advance; and, because it has been paid, everything can be had for nothing.
Discipleship is not an offer that man makes to Christ.

Discipleship does not come from positions of prominence, wealth, or advanced learning. The disciples of Jesus came from all walks of life.

And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: / And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, / Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
If we are not one, we are not in the true sense of the word the disciples of the Lord Jesus.
