Objective Verification via Thought-Provoking Questioning
Describe
and
compare
the
difference
between
accepting
Jesus
Christ
as
Savior,
and
yielding
to
Him as Lord.
Let’s
say
you
meet
someone
who
professes
to
be
a
Christian.
However,
it
is
obvious
they
are
living
in
darkness,
fulfilling
the
desires
of
their
flesh,
and
in
sin.
What
could
you
say
to
(or
ask)
this
person
(that
is
not
judgmental
or
condemning)
but
yet
causes
them
to
realize
being
a
Christian
is
much
more
than
proclaiming
to
be one?
I
dentify
which
of
the
8
Beatitudes
they
are
lacking
in
their
spiritual
growth,
and
determine
what their next step should be.
Jesus
provided
us
with
the
Beatitudes.
None
of
us
are
perfect,
and
all
of
us
are
pursuing
improvement
in
our
spiritual
walk.
As
such,
which
Beatitude
is
the
most
challenging
for
you
and
why?
Plus, is there anything you can do to overcome this challenge?
Recognize
the
importance
of
forgiving
others,
explain
the
consequences
of
unforgiveness,
and
conclude
they
must
truly
forgive
those
who
have
caused harm.
Can
you
identify
one
or
more
consequences
of
unforgiveness?
Who
truly
benefits
when
forgiveness
occurs:
the
one
who
was
guilty
of
the
harm,
or
the
one
who
was
harmed?
Why
is
it
important for the one who was harmed to forgive? Explain.
