November 27, 2022 Jim SuppSermonsGenesis, Psalms

The Names of God: Elohim

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR SHEPHERD GROUPS

  1. Prior to today’s message, what thoughts had you given to the notion that names in the Bible have meaning?
  2. Do you know of someone or some place that has a name with particular meaning? What is that meaning and what is the significance to you?
  3. How do you feel about your own name? Does it have any particular meaning that you value?
  4. Discuss the meaning of Elohim and why it is significant that it is found 32 times in the 31 verses of Genesis 1.
  5. Discuss the implications of the name Elohim, the All-Powerful Creator. Which of the four finds the greatest significance with you and why?
    • He Created Even You
    • He Chose You for His Family
    • He Saw Your End from the Beginning
    • He Is Worthy of Your Trust
  6. Knowing that our God is Elohim, what is your greatest challenging in trusting Him?
