Opening Question: If you had to give up one thing you really loved, what would it be?
Read Luke 18:18-30 out loud as a group, and again silently by yourselves, circling words you don’t know.
Word List:
camel – large animal that lives in the desert.
adultery – sex outside of marriage.
false witness – lying.
treasure – wealth, riches.
God’s kingdom – when heaven comes down to earth in the future, and Jesus rules as King of kings.
Discussion Questions:
1. What is eternal life? (See John 17:3 for a definition of eternal life, given by Jesus himself)
2. What did Jesus tell the ruler in verse 22, and why?
3. Can you think of anything that’s hard to “give up” for people these days?
4. Do you want to give up everything to follow Jesus? If so, please explain why.
5. What are the rewards of following Jesus?
6. How can we enter God’s kingdom and have eternal life?
