Hello GCG’s! Due to the continaul nature of the sermons, I found it best to change the title of the questions from OIA questions to GCG questions. This way, I am not bound to fitting the questions to a particular weekly structure. If anyone has suggestions, please let me know. Blessings to you all.
1. Are there any cultural or background issues that are important in understanding the book of Judges?
2. If you had to sum up the content of Joe’s sermon in one sentence, what would it be?
3. Read through 2-3 commentaries that give introductions to the book of Judges and share what you learn with your group. Here are some free online resources. (http://net.bible.org) (http://www.blueletterbible.org/) (http://biblia.com)
4. Joe stated in his sermon that “human beings are deeply depraved”. What does this mean? Share with your group and support with scripture.
5. How has this sermon helped in your understanding of human behavior/nature? Share.
6. Why is it so dangerous/damaging to NOT view humans as being depraved? In other words, why does the belief that one has the ability within themselves to follow Jesus lead to theological discrepancies and difficulties living the Christian life? Share.
