A straight call to biblical discipleship: sons who are “fit for battle” through submission, toughness, and spiritual sonship.
Takeaways:
Discipleship happens in the life of the church, not just proximity to a leader.
God promotes; men submit, endure, and obey.
Authority flows to those under authority.
Action: Identify one area to take correction, one habit to toughen, and one step of obedience this week.
