John 21
- Why did Peter jump out of the boat in John 21?
- Jesus told Peter that if he loved Jesus he needed to feed His sheep. How are your love for Jesus and your love for others related?
- According to 1 John 1:3, why is John proclaiming what he has seen and heard?
- What two things does God do when we confess our sins?
- John says that if we sin we have an advocate with the Father. What defense can Jesus offer in our behalf?
- Why does John say in 1 John 2:15 that you cannot love the world and love the Father?
- John says, "He appeared so that he might take away our sins. And in him is no sin. No one who lives in him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen him or known him." (1 John 3:5-6) How has Jesus freed you from sin?
- 1 John 3:16 says, "This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters." What do you need to do to obey this?
- 1 John 4:4 says, "the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world." How does this truth create confidence in you?
- 1 John 4:13 says, "This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit." In what ways do you recognize the Holy Spirit in you?
Exodus 21 - 40
- What was the purpose of the "eye for eye, tooth for tooth" command in Exodus 21:24?
- How do the instructions in chapter 21 relate to Jethro's advice in Exodus 18?
- Why would God say, "do not show favoritism to a poor person in a lawsuit," (Exodus 23:3) but also say, "do not deny justice to your poor people in their lawsuits" (Exodus 23:6)?
- Exodus 24:9-10 says that Moses and other leaders saw God. John 1:18 says no one has ever seen God. How can these both be true?
- According to Exodus 25:8-9 what was the purpose of the tabernacle?
- According to Exodus 28:2 what purpose did Aaron's garments serve?
- God says in Exodus 29:45-46, "Then I will dwell among the Israelites and be their God. They will know that I am the Lord their God, who brought them out of Egypt so that I might dwell among them. I am the Lord their God." This is one of many places in the Bible where God expresses His desire to live with His people. How and when do you draw near to God?
- What was the point of God giving a recipe for sacred anointing oil and sacred incense and telling Israel not to make it for any other purpose?
- For what purpose was Bezalel son of Uri filled with the Spirit of God?
- Why did Aaron make a golden calf in Exodus 32?
- In Exodus 33:15, why didn't Moses want to go on without God's presence?
- Why did Moses have to stop people from bringing offerings for the tabernacle?
- What did Moses find when he inspected all the materials for the tabernacle at the end of Exodus 39?
- What happened in Exodus 40:34 when the tabernacle was completed?
Psalm 15 - 17
- Psalm 15 explains that it is the blameless person who can come near to God. What hope is there for sinners?
- David wrote in Psalm 16:2, "You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing." Do you see every good thing in your life as coming from the Lord?
- David wrote, "Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings." (Psalm 17:8) Do you expect this kind of favor from God?
