Going Deeper Questions

  1. How does a proper understanding of my own sinfulness change the way I view

    the cross of Christ? Read: Isaiah 59:2-4; Romans 3:10-23

    In what ways am I tempted to overestimate my goodness or minimize my sin?

  2. How does Scripture's picture of God's holiness challenge my view of God?

    Read: Isaiah 6:1-5; Hebrews 12:28-29

    Do I approach God with the reverence and awe that His holiness deserves?

  3. Why is the death of Jesus necessary for my salvation, and what does that reveal

    about God's justice and love? Read: Hebrews 9:22; 2 Corinthians 5:21; 1

    Peter 2:22-25

    Which aspect of the cross amazes me most: God's justice or God's mercy?

  4. Have I personally responded to the gospel through confession, repentance, and

    faith in Christ? Read: 1 John 1:9; Acts 16:30-31

    Am I trusting Jesus alone for salvation, or am I relying on my own goodness?

  5. Is the Jesus I follow the Jesus revealed in Scripture, or a version of Jesus shaped

    by my preferences? Read: John 1:1-14; Colossians 1:15-20

    Are there teachings of Jesus that I tend to ignore because they make me

    uncomfortable?

  6. Do I treat Jesus merely as Savior, or do I also submit to Him as Lord?

    Read: Romans 10:9-10; Luke 6:46

    What areas of my life am I still trying to control instead of surrendering to

    Christ?

  7. How confident am I that Jesus is the only way of salvation, and how should that

    affect my witness to others? Read: Acts 4:10-12; John 14:6; 1 Timothy 2:5-6

    Who in my life needs to hear the good news that salvation is found in Christ

    alone? Who will I tell about Jesus this week?

  8. What does it look like for me to abide in Jesus daily rather than merely believe

    facts about Him? Read: John 15:4-5; Galatians 2:20

    What practical habits help me remain connected to Christ and bear spiritual

    fruit? How will I set new habits in place this week? Who will hold me

    accountable?
