This one greek word describes the process in which you can find the will of God for your life and mine!

This word in english is translated "make disciples". Jesus said in Matthew 28:19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations....

The process of becoming a Disciple (follower) of Jesus goes like this....

1st - He wants to save you from the Penalty of Sin (Hell). The Bible calls this Justification. When you call out to God asking for Forgiveness and receive His Gift of Salvation. He declares you Righteous (Just-as-if-you-never-sinned) based on what Jesus did for you on the Cross!
Luke 13:3, Romans 3:10; 3:23; 5:8, & 10:8-9

2nd - He wants to save you from the Power of Sin. The Bible calls this Sanctification. When you are saved, God gives you Himself. He gives you His Holy Spirit to begin to work in you and shaping you into what He created you to be (Like Jesus). You will never need more of Jesus than you get when you are saved! However, He begins a process of getting more of you.
Romans 6:22-23, 1 Thessalonians 4:2-7

3rd - He wants to save you from the very Presence of Sin! The Bible calls this Glorification. This looks beyond this life to the believers condition after death & resurrection!
Romans 8:29-30, 2 Timothy 2:10
