Understanding God
In the Old Testament people went to the temple to meet with God. It was where God revealed Himself. In the New Testament where is the temple of God according to 1 Corinthians 3:16?
So how does God generally reveal Himself today?
1 Peter 2:9-10 describes it even farther. How are believers described in these verses?
What is our purpose according to 1 Peter 2:9-10?
Internal
Understanding Ourselves
Acts 2:442-47 gives us an incredible description of the New Testament community of believers. How does their experience differ from ours today?
Now take a look at Acts 4:32-35. What benefits do you see in how they practiced their Christianity?
How does this display of love for one another bring others to Christ? See Matthew 5:14.
Would you say most Christians in your church are more concerned with how much church benefits them or are they more concerned with how much they can benefit others?
What makes the difference?
External
Understanding Others
1 John 4:11-12 tells us that no man has ever seen God - but if we do this they will see him in us - what is it?
What 3 things keep you from taking time to love your neighbor?
What 3 things can you do to show love to your neighbor?
Just a Reminder
