Life Together in the Kingdom
Speaker: Jay Pound Series: How God Became King Scripture: Matthew 18:1–35
Kingdom life requires turning aside from status and self-promotion to care for others (18.1-5).
- What we do for the least among us we do for Jesus (18.5).
Kingdom life requires combating sin through gentle correction, humble repentance and limitless forgiveness (18.8-35).
- The purpose of correction should always be restoration (18.14-17).
Discussion Questions
- Describe a time you met someone famous? How did it make you feel?
- How would it look for the church generally to take Jesus’ admonition in Mt. 18.5 seriously? How might it change the way we did things? How might it change our culture?
- A healthy church community requires us all to be willing to correct, repent and forgive. Which one do you find most difficult?
