review

·         In Luke 18:13, the humble tax collector says, “O God, be merciful to me, for I am a sinner.” Why is that such a commendable response to God’s grace? How is the tax collector’s humble state similar to the attitude of a person who receives “the kingdom of God like a child”? (18:17). What will you do to make sure this is your response to God?

·         In chapter 18, it’s clear that God’s Word is always effective, even when we see a negative response to it. Have you had a chance to share the truth of Jesus with them? How did they respond?

·         Sometimes God calls to Himself people we might not expect to be welcomed into the kingdom. Do you think some people aren’t “good enough” to become Christians? How does the story of Zacchaeus (19:1-10) address that attitude?

·         Is it possible to see Jesus as a great man, and yet not trust Him as Saviour? (vv. 28-44). How are the following things helping you to truly trust in God: the Bible, your church family, prayer?

From what you’ve read in Luke, think of the three things that will help you the most to live for Christ.
