GETTING TO KNOW ME

What do you think of when you think of God's wrath? Did you hear about this growing up?

INTO THE BIBLE
  1. Read Matthew 25: Look over this passage in detail.
    • Who gains eternal life? Who does not?
    • What are the criteria for those welcomed into eternal life?
    • Is Jesus teaching that we earn our salvation by doing good deeds? Why? Why not?
    • Discuss details you learn in v. 41 about hell.
    • Why is a day of coming judgment so difficult for our culture to accept?
    • Read 2 Thessalonians 1:6-10. Describe this future day of judgment that Paul writes about.
      • Is the language of hell literal? Why? Why not?
      • How do you react to passages like this?
      • Read Revelation 20:7-15.
        • What will happen to Satan? How long will it last? What is the nature of his punishment?
        • What is “the book” that is opened in v. 12? Are there any other references to it in the Bible?
        • Will those who go to hell be conscious or unconscious? Why?
        • How is hell described in these verses?
        • Read Revelation 21:1-8.
          • Describe the scene here. What does John see? Describe what happens to death, pain, and sorrow.
          • Read v. 6 and note that God the Father is speaking. Who is speaking in Revelation 1:17-18?
          • How do these two texts establish that Jesus is God? Be specific.
            • APPLICATION

            Discuss the following statement by theologian Miroslav Volf: “God is not loving in spite of His wrath; He is loving because of His wrath” (Free of Charge, Zondervan).
