Sunday's Message Text:


Bible Plan Readings - Week 26

START IT.

  • This week is all about obedience. Is that a positive or negative word to you? Why?

​​SHARE IT.

  • From Sunday's message in Matthew 5, or the Meet Jesus Bible Reading Plan this week, what is impacting you the most? Was there a word, phrase, Bible verse, or theme that impacted you? Hint: What did you highlight

  • What 6 examples of Kingdom demands does Jesus provide in Matthew 5:21-48? Can you see a sentence structure to each example? What does each example include?

  • With the first example that Jesus provides, what is the main issue and what does Jesus teach for us to do when this happens?

  • What is Jesus teaching about people in verses 21-26?

​​SHOW IT.

  • Do you agree that what you obey tells everyone else what you worship? What is an example of this?

  • Anger, not just murder, "is a symptom of a desire to get rid of somebody." (Stott) Can you see the connection between murder and anger?

  • Some anger is biblical. Who are you worshipping in your anger? Who are you hostile to in your anger? (sin or God)

  • Who has been angry with you that you need to reconcile quickly with? Are you willing to drop everything to go reconcile, showing your obedience to God?

FINAL THOUGHT

  • Read Ezekiel 36:27. Try to restate this verse in your words...Spirit-filled, life-changing obedience-based discipleship makes obedience to God possible.
