Bible Study

Don't just take our word for it . . . take His!  We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon:

 Daniel 3; Matthew 26.36-46; Romans 5.1-5; 2 Corinthians 1.1-11; Hebrews 11.35-40

Outline

  1. Life's final moments often reveal the scaffolding of our lives.
  2. A new gospel emerging in western Christianity has no answer for failure, suffering or anything other than success.
  3. Sometimes the Lord allows unpleasant - and at times, painful - circumstances to enter our lives.
  4. God's promise is to meet us in those moments.

Application

  • How do you reconcile suffering and the sovereignty of God?
  • If God is loving why does He allow suffering?
  • If God is all powerful why doesn't He forbid suffering?
  • Why would God allow suffering?
  • What is your story?  How have you (have you?) found God in your suffering?
  • Where are you now?  A good place?  A difficult place?  In light of your circumstances, what is your response?

The outline and application question are intended for your further reflection and action upon the weekend message. They are also designed to facilitate discussion and accountability within your LifeGroup.
