Was Jesus Serious?

For the last several weeks we've been analyzing Matthew 10 and identifying how Jesus interacted with His disciples. Today we're going to look over verses 1-31 and share key points we've learned as a congregation.

Open your Bible and get ready to participate for the next 20 - 30 minutes. Remember, As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend. Proverbs 27:17

As you are reviewing these passages, ask yourself how serious Jesus was and if or not you take Him serious pertaining to these scriptures.

The Call - Describe what Jesus did when He called His disciples in Matthew 10:1-4

The Sending - Talk about the detailed instructions Jesus gave the disciples as He sent them out in Matthew 10:5-15

The Expectations - Matthew 16-26 paints a picture of what the disciples can expect on their journey. Choose a scripture among verses 16-26 and re-state it as if Jesus was talking to us today.

Don't Fear Man, Fear God - Verses 1-26 would give anybody a reason to fear in the natural. Matthew 27-31 point out the significance of obedience. Elaborate on the verses that Jesus seems to be giving instruction to obey. 

Stay blessed,
