Further Study – Lesson Summary Week 1

Further Study:

Think about your personal testimony and make sure that you are able to give it when the opportunity arises.

Take some time to sit quietly and consider what areas of church life you enjoy being involved in or that you would consider being involved in if you were asked. Write them down. You may be interested in evangelistic areas in which your church is not currently involved. List these areas too.

Begin to consider in what way you can become involved in an evangelistic ministry in your church. If you are already involved in a ministry and desire to stay there, pray that God will continue to bless that ministry. If you are not presently involved, pray that God will reveal to you where He wants you to work for Him.  Notes

Discussion Questions:

 1  In the gospel commission of Matthew 28:19-20, there are four action verbs, go, make disciples, baptize, and teach. The commands to go, baptize, and teach are all subordinate to the imperative that says, "make disciples." Considering this clear emphasis, discuss what it means to be a disciple and how disciples are made.  Notes 2  Consider the following quote and then discuss the question: How do we as individuals and as a church group become a part of God's channel of communication to a lost world? "As His representatives among men, Christ does not choose angels who have never fallen, but human beings, men of like passions with those they seek to save. Christ took upon Himself humanity, that He might reach humanity. Divinity needed humanity, for it required both the divine and the human to bring salvation to the world. Divinity needed humanity that humanity might afford a channel of communication between God and man."—Ellen G. White, The Desire of Ages, p. 296Notes

3  Take a look at your own life. What kind of example do you present to the world? How do your words, actions, dress, demeanor, and attitude impact those around you? In short, what kind of witness do you present to the world, even when you are not actively "witnessing"? In which areas can you definitely improve? Notes
