Opening question: If God was a man, what do you think that man be like?
Let’s read about Jesus out loud the first time, and then again silently, circling any words that you’re not sure about:
John 1:1-3, 14
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made. Without him nothing was made that has been made.
John 10:28-33
28 "I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish. No one can snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all. No one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. 30 I and the Father are one." 31 Again the Jews picked up stones to stone him. 32 But Jesus said to them, "I have shown you many great miracles from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?" 33 "We are not stoning you for any of these," replied the Jews, "but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God."
1 John 5:11-13
11 And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 He who has the Son has life. He who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.
John 17:3
3 "Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent."
Thought Questions:
1) Is there anything that you don’t understand in the Bible verses above?
2) According to the Bible, what’s the relationship between God and Jesus?
3) If Jesus is the one, true Creator God, how can Jesus help people today and in the future?
4) Have you come to the point in your life where you know for sure -- 100% -- that you’re going to heaven?
5) If you were to die tonight and stand before God, and He asked you, “Why should I let you into my heaven?” what would your answer would be?
6) How can we know for sure that we have eternal life, according to the verses above?
7) Why do you think it might be good to know for sure that you’re going to heaven?
