Sermon Discussion Questions
- What can you do to please God or to qualify to be saved and accepted by God? Explain who “Jesus died for the ungodly” refer to and how we can stand righteous before God. (Heb 11:4-6; Luke 5:31-32; Rom 4:5; Tit 3:5)
- Discuss why Abel’s offering of animal was favorably accepted by God, whereas God rejected Cain’s offering of the produce of the land? Compare the Day of Atonement made by the earthly High Priest with animal sacrifices to Jesus’ redemption for us as the ultimate sacrifice through His blood. (Heb 11:4; Heb 9:22; Gen 4:4; Heb 9:11-15)
- Discuss how you may approach God differently, knowing that God is pleased when you approach His throne of grace by faith whenever you need help or mercy or to intercede for others, and the fact that you are accepted not by your works or effort but through Jesus who justified and qualified you to come before the holy God. (Heb 4:16; Eph 1:6-7; Eze 22:30)
