Here’s part 2 of our conversation on “the apostles’ teaching” about the practices of WestWay Christian Church- “What is the Bible? Where did it come from? How can we trust it?”
For Personal Reflection/Small Group Discussion
- Read Matthew 4:1-11. How did Jesus “use” scripture? Notice that Satan did, too. What was the difference?
- Read 2 Timothy 3:16-4:2. How has scripture “taught what is true, helped you realize what is wrong in your life, correct you when you were wrong and/or taught you what is right?” Be specific. Are you willing to be taught by scripture? Rebuked by it? Corrected by it? Trained or equipped by it?
- Read Hebrews 4:12-13. In what ways has God’s word been “alive and powerful” in your life? How has it revealed who you really are (cut deep and expose your innermost thoughts)?
- Read James 1:22-25. In what ways is God’s word like a mirror? When you see the reality of yourself or your condition in it, what do you do?
