Christian moral action.
cost of discipleship
Costly grace.
The idea that is true Christians would be will to do what it takes to forfill the will of God and to suffer like Chirst did not the Cross.
This links to ideas of Civil disobedience and the way in which Christains to should act if the will of God is not upheld.
Christians should be ready to challeng ideas that are moraly wrong and make a effiort to prevent them from growing.
This refects the ways in which God was willing to sacrifce his only son in oder to forgive man of his sins.

Cheep grace.
This is the idea that christains will do what they think makes them good christians by doing the bear minium. IE just going to church every sunday and Praying to God now and then.
This is a probelm and in orginsaed religioun many of those people will not be willing to do what is needed to forfill there duty to god.
This is also a problem as Christians like those in Germany and in the Southen U.S during the 20th centry would be ready at any moment to proclaim themselfs to be christian while also going out of these way to kill African Americans and report jews the Gestapo.
Discipleship is exclusisve obedicance to the leadership of God and as a result burning all other legal ties.
