Take It With You!
During this series please consider reading through the first three chapters of Revelation daily with your family or on your own. After each sermon, questions will be provided to guide your reading and prayer time. God's blessings in your study!
1. Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. In other words, He is the one who takes the punishment on the cross that we deserve. The big, bible word for this is "propitiation." This means God's wrath towards sinners is turned on Jesus. He takes our punishment and in exchange gives us eternal life, forgiveness, and salvation! What comfort can you find in such a message? How can you share it with others?
2. Reread the book of Jonah. What was Jonah's problem? Why did He flee from God? What happened when He was obedient?
3. How do we flee from God's call? Where is our Tarshish (that is, where do we go when we don't want to do what God commands)?
4. Who is God calling you to embrace with the Gospel of Jesus Christ?
