  • The Big 3 | 11 Nov, 2026
    1. Regarding the GBC Values, do you think Jesus returns to; A. validate our efforts in restoring the world and or B. rescue it and us from self-destruction?
    2. Are there other weird descriptions of God in the Bible like the drunken warrior? And why use such strange, almost offensive, ones? 
    3. Are purpose statements and values an example of importing corporate/secular leadership ideas into the church?

    1. Is baptism referring to literal baptism or is it a symbol of what happens when we begin to identify with Jesus?
    2. Has the church, in general, used the examples Paul used in Romans, such as slavery and adultery in marriage, to inappropriately dictate "Godly behaviour" ? 
    3. "Identify with Christ" - how do we do this without being associates with those who manipulate Jesus' teachings for political gain and hold extreme views?

    1. Romans 5:11-21 shows how much Christ's sacrifice means than Adam's disobedience. But, isn't this also a foundational passage for teaching original sin? 
    2. Can you expand on the concept of original sin? There appear to be somewhat different Catholic, Orthodox, Reformed and mainstream Baptist interpretations. 
    3. You briefly mentioned universalism. Can you say more about that?

  • The Big 3 | 21 Oct, 2026
    1. You described Paul’s descriptions of salvation as being like an elephant - but isn’t there a distinct progression from justification to sanctification to glory? 
    2. Is the development of character that leads to hope a potential pathway of discipleship?
    3. In the Life Group resources (and recent sermons) you have focused on the need for unity. Why is this front of mind at the moment, where do you see us disunited?

  • The Big 3 | 14 Oct, 2026
    1. The passage talks about God’s servant Nebuchadnezzar. In what sense was he God’s servant? Why was he held accountable for persecution if he was serving God?
    2. Baruch’s father is always mentioned. Was he important?
    3. Why are the prophecies out of order? The next one, chapter 46, is different again?

  • The Big 3 | 7 Oct, 2026
    1. Numbers 14:24 says Caleb had a different spirit. What does this mean and why wasn’t Joshua included since he also believed God’s promises?
    2. What happened to Caleb? Did his family become important? If so, why isn’t he in Jesus’ genealogy?
    3. Are there other lessons we can learn from Caleb?

  • The Big 3 | 30 Sept, 2026
    This week's questions:
    1. Given the state of the world governments could definitely use the office of the prophet, is there a biblical foundation for this role ceasing to exist?
    2. How do we reconcile Deut 18:22, Jer 23:16, Ezekiel 13:9 with the fact Nathan says one thing then says the opposite to David?
    3. How can David be a man after Gods own heart (1 Sam 13:14) yet have broken so many of Gods commandments? What does this mean for us?

  • The Big 3 | 23 Sep, 2026
    1. If there’s a problem with calling the resurrection life a ‘purchase’ then why do we say Jesus ‘paid’ our debts? Should we rephrase it?
    2. Did Abraham really obey the law before it was given to Moses? Why is it still counted to Abraham as righteousness when he submitted to Sarai and slept with Hagar? What does this mean for us?
    3. I’ve always heard that grace is an unmerited gift. If it was more in the first century, why don’t we emphasise the other parts?

  • The Big 3 | 16 Sep, 2026
    1. You mentioned how Paul mashed a handful of verses together to convey his message, but today this methodology of picking and mixing verses is frowned upon, why?
    2. Romans 3:11-18 contains many references to wicked speech, violence & destruction. Why do you think this is? Is it more of a theological emphasis or a pastoral one?
    3. Say more about the Romans road.

  • The Big 3 | 9 Sep, 2026
    1. Paul’s letter was full of practical applications to a fractured church. What practical applications can GBC take from it in our current day situation?
    2. Paul suggests that people were slandering him by saying that he supported doing evil (3:8). What was the basis of this claim?
    3. If circumcision is no longer needed why did God initially instigate it if He was just going to get rid of it?
