Jesus was walking into a trap. Several traps, actually.

When Jesus entered the Temple in Matthew 21, the Pharisees, Sadducees and others planned to ask Him questions that might trap or make our Lord look bad before others. They wanted to destroy or hurt His credibility. In today's study, we'll see how Jesus responded.

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) What was the irony about the questions that Jesus was facing?

B) What was the point of Christ's parable about the wedding feast?

C) What happened to the improperly dressed 'wedding guest?'

Matthew: Jesus And The Trap In The Temple

No. Other. Name.

As he felt the Sanhedrin's angry gaze, Peter stood firm. There's no other name, there's no other door, there's no other way by which fallen sinners can be reconciled to God. Not two. Not ten. Just one, Peter declared. Jesus Christ is the singular means of salvation.

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) What are the implications of this statement to other religions?

B) What were the implications to Peter's original audience?

C) What sort of opposition does such an exclusive claim make?

Jesus: The (Only) Name That Saves

The world is trying to remake you in its image.

Will you let it?

In Romans 12, the Apostle Paul reminds his readers that the world is intent on creating worldly people. That's what it does. It wants to conform you and I to its own priorities. However, Paul tells Christians that we are NOT to be conformed - instead, we are to be transformed through the 'renewing of our minds.'

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) Why is conformity bad (and dangerous)?

B) How does transformation occur?

C) What does it mean to 'renew' your mind in God's Word?

Transformation Or Conformation (Paul's Warning)

Genesis started in a GARDEN. 

It ended in a COFFIN.

In Genesis 1, things were looking great. God had created the world, and said that all He had created was good. But soon, things got dark.

Following mankind's first sin (in Genesis 3), a roller coaster of depravity followed. In Genesis 4, Cain killed his brother, and things didn't improve through the end of the book.

In today's sermon, we will consider Genesis 50 (the final words of the last chapter). These words will set the stage for the rest of the Bible.

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) What does Genesis tell us about mankind?

B) What does Genesis tell us about God?

C) How does Genesis flow into Exodus and the rest of Scripture?
