Two masters. One heart. One winner. What you desire most will decide your direction--everytime.

OUTLINE: 
Management 16:1-13 
Motives 16:14-15 
Morals 16:16-18 

QUESTIONS: 
16:1-13 Jesus says no one can serve two masters- even though we try. Where do you sense the strongest pull between Jesus and something else right now? In physics, not force determines direction- over time the strongest force always wins. What desire currently has the greatest ‘pull’ in your life? 
16:14-15 The Pharisees looked righteous on the outside but were driven by hidden motives. What motives are easiest for you to hide from others? When God exposes a backstage motive, what is your typical response- defensiveness, ridicule, denial or repentance? 
16:16-18 “Holy hopscotch” describes skipping over uncomfortable truths. Where are you most tempted to minimise, redefine, or avoid what Jesus clearly says? When obedience feels costly, what competing desire usually steps in to take control? Where do you need to remember and be reminded that Jesus is the perfect manager who paid your debt in full?
