QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION AT HOME OR IN GOSPEL COMMUNITY GROUPS
Sermon manuscript available at emmausrbc.org
- How are people justified (saved, redeemed) now that Christ has accomplished our redemption? How were people justified (saved, redeemed) before Christ accomplished our redemption?
- The gospel preached before Christ is the same gospel preached after Christ. How so? The gospel preached before Christ was different than the gospel preached after Christ. How so?
- The gospel preached before Christ was delivered through promises, prophesies, types, and shadows. Define these terms. What do they all share in common?
- The seventh-day weekly sabbath proclaimed the gospel of Jesus Christ in a shadowy, symbolic way. What was the good news that it proclaimed?
- Does the practice of weekly Sabbath observance remain for the people of God who live now under the new covenant (see Hebrews 4:8-11)? If so, what day is the Sabbath? What message does the Lord’s Day Sabbath communicate? How does it differ from the seventh-day Sabbath?
- How should we keep the Sabbath day holy? How does this benefit the people of God?
