Discussion Questions: Beware Of The Sin Of Pride And Selfish Ambition, Luke 22:24-30

  1. What is the sin of pride and selfish ambition? Why are they so vile in God’s sight? Why are they so divisive?
  2. What likely prompted this dispute amongst the disciples on the night Jesus was betrayed?
  3. Why was this dispute regarding who is the greatest most untimely?
  4. What does greatness look like in the world? What does greatness look like in Christ’s kingdom?
  5. The disciples didn’t seem to understand this lesson about true greatness before Christ’s resurrection. They seemed to grasp it afterwards, though. How do we know? What changed to enable them to understand?
