QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION AT HOME OR IN GOSPEL COMMUNITY GROUPS

The sermon manuscript is available at emmausrbc.org/category/sermons

  • Do you think that Luke 7:11-17 is meant to be compared with 1 Kings 17:8–24? If so, why? What do we learn about Jesus when we compare and contrast these texts?
  • How does the miracle of Luke 7:11-17 function as a sign that Jesus is the Messiah?
  • How does this miracle symbolize the totality of Jesus’ mission?
  • What is different about the resurrection of Jesus when compared to the raising of the widow’s son (Luke 7:14), the young daughter of Jairus (Luke 8:54), and Jesus’ friend, Lazarus (John 11:43)? There are many differences, but one is really big. Hint: It has to do with the quality of life that follows.
  • Jesus has won the victory over sin, Satan, and death and has been raised to life incorruptible. How do we come to benefit from this? And what difference should this make in our lives today, and especially at the moment of death?
