QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION AT HOME OR IN GOSPEL COMMUNITY GROUPS
- Are you more impressed with world history (so called), or redemptive history? Put differently, are you impressed with the people and events that the world considers significant? Or do you appreciate the way in which God has and continues to work in the world through small, weak, and foolish things? (see 1 Corinthians 1:27ff.)
- How was Abram’s conquering of the four kings a picture of what the Christ would accomplish. Discuss your redemption in Christ. What have you been rescued from? What have you been freed to do?
- How was Melchizedek a type of Christ? Why did the writer to the Hebrews made such a big deal out of the idea that Christ was a priest in the order of Melchizedek and not Aaron? (see Psalm 110; Hebrews 5-7)
- Christ is the prophet, priest and king all in one. What needs of yours does he meet in each of these offices respectively? (see Baptist Catechism questions 26-29 –emmausrbc.org/catechismhttps://emmausrbc.org/catechism)
