Luke 17:11 – 19:27
There are many opponents to faith. Over the next two weeks we’re going to take a look at a couple of these. Before we can begin we will need to try to define what we mean by faith and also observe how Jesus defines or illustrates the presence of it as well as the absence of it. In addition, we will need to ask ourselves whether we tend to live more by faith or by sight. I hope you will expand your thinking beyond some of the standard answers usually given in a church setting.
Questions To Consider
1) Consider the way faith is shown in Luke with the way we should show it today.
2) Is it possible to claim we have faith when the object of our faith is not realistic?
3) What are wrong things in which modern people place their faith?
4) What do you think the request “increase our faith” expects for an answer? How would you interpret Jesus’ answer?
5) Give contemporary illustrations of the barriers to faith indicated in this chapter.
6) Did Jesus teach God would give us anything we believe he can give? If he did, what would be the consequences?
7) Which character within these faith stories would you say is more like you?
8) What do you believe helped the early disciples grow the most in their faith?
