Abstract

The meaning of discipleship is significant for the church today. As the world changes, the church and the members of the church change, and it becomes necessary for the church to renew her churchliness. In order to be the church, the church must know the meaning of discipleship. If the church wants to understand her divine duty she must know the meaning of discipleship. This thesis presents an investigation of the meaning of discipleship in Jesus' farewell discourses in the Gospel according to St. John (chapters 13-17).
