Title: Are you really a follower of Christ?
Review: "When Christ calls a man, He bids him come and die". These words of Bonhoeffer are the grand theme of this miraculous theological work. This books calls upon every professed or confessed believer in Christ to examine him or herself. Bonhoeffer pulls no punches, and he has every right to do so. Focusing on the "sermon on the mount" Bonhoeffer calls on every christian not to just hear the sayings of Christ but to do them! There are few writers who can truly bring us into the presence of Christ, and this is what Bonhoeffer does in "The Cost of Discipleship".In these times of false teachings and "cheap grace" as Bonhoeffer puts it, this is a wakeup call for all christians. Certainly the greatest book I have read on what it means to be a follower of Christ.
