GETTING TO KNOW ME

What is one of your earliest misconceptions about Jesus?

INTO THE BIBLE
  1. Read Matthew’s version of Jesus’ triumphal entry (Matthew 21:1-11).
  • Read the background to this in Zechariah 9:9-13.
  • Where is the Mount of Olives in relation to Jerusalem and the Temple?
  • What was the purpose of this event in the life of Jesus?
  • Why is Jesus suddenly a rock star?
  • What did the people want from Jesus? What did they get?
  • What’s the lesson for us today?
  • In what ways is Jesus “popular” today? In what ways is He not?
  • Read Mark 11:12-19.
    • Why would Jesus curse a tree? What was going on here?
  • Selling sacrificial animals and exchanging currency were normal events at the Temple. Why did Jesus get so angry then?
  • Read Isaiah 11:17. What does the Bible mean when it says “all nations”/”all peoples”?
  • Read Psalm 67. How is the Bible’s concept of “nation” frequently different than ours?
  • Read Isaiah 19:19-25.
    • How does this passage reveal God’s missionary heart for all nations?
  • Why would this passage be so utterly shocking to Jews?
  • What does this tell us about God’s plans for the nations? What should our response be?
  • Read Mark 11:20-25.
    • How do you explain 2 Corinthians 12:7-9 in light of Mark 11:24? Why was Paul’s request refused?
  • How could Mark 11:24 be misused? How would you explain this to someone who was confused?
  • What is the warning here about holding grudges? What does Jesus mean in verse 25?
    • APPLICATION

    Have each person (or couple) pray out loud for someone in their lives who is not saved.
