Sunday Rewind

MUSIC & SCRIPTURE

Whom Shall I Fear (God of Angel Armies) (Psalm 27:1) – Let The Future Begin by Chris Tomlin (Passion)

Open Up Our Eyes (Ephesians 1:18-19a) – Nothing Is Wasted by Elevation Worship

Your Great Name (Philippians 2:10-11) – Love Revolution by Natalie Grant

Cornerstone (Psalm 18:2) – Cornerstone by Hillsong

Lord I Need You (Hebrews 4:16) – All The People Said Amen by Matt Maher

 

TEACHING: Rooted: A Study of Deeper Faith in Colossians, Part 8

How were people in the Old Testament saved if Jesus had not yet come? If we can’t keep the law, why were we given the law? If we are under grace, can we live any way we want? The answer to these questions lies in the pure, undiluted organic gospel.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR SHEPHERD GROUPS

  1. What was one thing you found particularly interesting, insightful, helpful or difficult to understand from this sermon?
  2. Read and discuss Colossians 2:16-23. What do these verses tell us about the nature of man? What do these verses tell us about Jesus?
  3. Where in these verses do you find warnings against legalism, mysticism and asceticism? How do each of these add to or take away from the gospel?
  4. What is the purpose of the law? How does the law “stir up the flesh”? How does the law also point us to Christ?
  5. How were people in Old Testament times saved if Jesus had not yet come?
  6. Read and discuss Romans 5:12-6:14. How would you describe the relationship between law and grace?
  7. If we are under grace, and not under the law, can we live any way we want? How would you justify, explain or defend your answer?
  8. What is “the organic gospel”? What do we tend to add to or take away from the gospel?
  9. Where in your life do you need spiritual “recalculating”?
  10. Spend some time in prayer thanking God for the goodness of both His law and His grace. Thank Him for the provision we have in Christ, who fulfills the law and covers us in His grace.
