Sermon

Rooted: A Study of Deeper Faith in Colossians, Part 7

August 4, 2014 Mike MinterSermonsColossians, Luke

Performance will always lead to self-righteousness, which always leads to judging others. The thing you tend to judge others for is likely the area of self-righteousness that you struggle with.

Rooted: A Study of Deeper Faith in Colossians, Part 7

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR SHEPHERD GROUPS

  1. What was one thing you found particularly interesting, insightful, helpful or difficult to understand from this sermon?
  2. Do you ever sense a disconnect between what you feel and what the Bible says?
  3. Read and discuss Colossians 2:11-15. What do they tell us about the nature of man? What do these verses tell us about Jesus? 
  4. What does it mean to be "dead in your sins" (v. 13)?
  5. What is the "record of debt" that the law demands of us (v. 14)? How is the law an instructor?
  6. Consider your answers to questions 4 & 5. How is Christ the remedy?
  7. What is grace? How is grace an instructor?
  8. What drives us to perform, rather than rest in grace?
  9. "Performance will always lead to self-righteousness, which always leads to judging other people." Have you found this to be true?
  10. In what area(s) of your life do you tend to struggle with self-righteousness? How does the gospel address this?
  11. Spend some time in prayer asking God to graciously keep us from self-righteous performance. Pray that His grace would continue to take root deep within our hearts.
