"Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord." Romans 12:11

It is all or nothing with Jesus. Once we sign on with Jesus, discipleship is not an option in a Christian’s life. You will have a master (Greek, kurios = lord). When we say that Jesus is Lord it is not just a cool way of sounding spiritual; we are saying He has absolute ownership over our lives, or we don’t understand. It is not just an option for the super-spiritual; Jesus must be acknowledged for who He really is.
