Disciple

Easton, 1897

A scholar, sometimes applied to the followers of John the Baptist (Matthew 9:14), and of the Pharisees (Matthew 22:16), but principally to the followers of Christ. A disciple of Christ is one who (1) believes his doctrine, (2) rests on his sacrifice,

(3) imbibes his spirit, and (4) imitates his example (Matthew 10:24; Luke 14:26, Luke 14:27, Luke 14:33; John 6:69).
