October 11, 2020 Sermon Discussion Questions

Get to know me:

Instructions: The purpose of these questions is to generate responses that are self-revealing and informative. Feel free to ask all of these questions to your group or simply choose the one that best fits your group.

  1. What’s your most hated phone scam & what do you do when they call?

  2. Have you ever run into a “wolf in sheep's clothing” trying to use God as a scam? 

Into the Bible

Instructions: The purpose of these questions is to draw group members into the Bible to discover truth from passages that were not the primary text for the weekend message.

Read  2 Corinthians 11: 14-15

  1. In this passage what is Paul warning us of? 

  2. False teachers come in different forms. Some are intentional “Wolves Among the Sheep”, and others are well intentioned, but poorly informed themselves. How can we identify a false teacher & their intentions?

Application:

Instructions: The purpose of these questions is to apply the main points from the weekend message.

  1. What is the ultimate purpose behind all of the false “gospels” taught in & around the Church today?

  2. Where can you go for “testing” out whether or not what we are hearing is the truth?

  3. What should a true Christian do, when they come up against false teachers and theology that is not in agreement with the Bible?
