Questions for Saturday Morning:

  1. What is your opinion of the prison system in America? Should we be trying to rehabilitate criminals? Is prison simply the just punishment for disobeying the law and rehabilitation is not that important?

  2. Galatians 6:1: What guidance would you have for how to address sin in someone else’s life?
  3. Galatians 6:1: Why does Paul warn us to watch ourselves, or fall into temptation? Do you have an example of this?
  4. Galatians 6:2: How is my brother’s sin a burden that I need to help carry? Isn’t my brother’s sin something that needs to be handled between him and God?
  5. Galatians 6:3-5: In relation to Galatians 6:2, what’s the importance of humility in your relationship with others?
  6. Galatians 6:7-8: Are you wondering what the next big thing God has planned for you in life? Are you faithful to God in the small things today, or do you hope He’s overlooking those things?
  7. Galatians 6:8-9: Explain “whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life”? Is Paul all of a sudden saying that eternal life is gained through some sort of reward-based system (hint: read John 17:3)
  8. Galatians 6:10: Why is it important to do good especially to those who belong to the family of believers? What would I do for the family of believers that I wouldn’t for others?
  9. Galatians 6:12: What are some things you’ve done to impress people, but really tried to avoid being persecuted/unpopular/left out? Why did you do it?
  10. Galatians 6:13: Have you ever had a friend/sibling try to pressure you to do something really stupid? Why did they pressure you to do it? Do you think the Judaizers fell into the same trap? Do we fall into that trap?
  11. Galatians 6:14: What does Paul mean when he says “the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world”?
  12. Galatians 6:15-17: It’s interesting that even though Paul spent a good portion of Galatians addressing the irrelevance of circumcision to Christians, he ended up having to bear the physical scars of his commitment to Christ in a different way – through the scars of being beaten for his faith and proclaiming it to others. Do you have any scars (physical or emotional) that you bear for representing your faith out loud? Is this necessary or important? Are scars only something you get from living apart from God?
