QUICK REVIEW Looking back at your notes from this week’s teaching:

MAIN POINT
“The good news of salvation in Jesus changes the way you relate to others and to God.”
DIGGING DEEPER

b) What leads to Jesus' statement “Hypocrites,” and how do we avoid that title?
c) When attempting to correct faults in others, what is the proper protocol?
d) Are there any other passages in scripture that speak about judging?
2) Matthew 7:6
a) What’s the proper interpretation of verse 6?
b) How does verse 6 apply to our lives today
3) Matthew 7:7-12
a) How has the Gospel changed the way you view your relationship with God?
b) What are the 3 things listed as actions for us to do in our relationship with the
Father? How do we apply each of them to our lives?
c) What good things have you asked God for recently?
d) Why is verse 12 considered a summary of the law and the prophets?
APPLICATION
The cross of Jesus Christ has the power to save, and the power to transform our perspective in relations both with God and man. Spend time meditating on Calvary and allow God to transform your heart and your mind. Don’t hesitate to ask God for the practical things you need, whether it is provision, or a spiritual gift. He is generous, knows what we require and will give us exactly what we need.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, help me to focus on You, Your love, and the sacrifice You made for me at the cross. I ask that You transform my relationship with the people in my life, and deepen my understanding of who You are and Your desire to give me what You know is good for me.
