I. Unbeliever’s Questions

Question- a sentence, phrase, or word that asks for information or is used to test someone's knowledge.

Unbeliever- a person who does not believe something; especially: a person who does not believe in a particular religious faith.

Featured Text

a. Matthew 21:23-25

Commentary: The chief priests and elders did not believe that Jesus was the Messiah. They questioned his authority to speak on such matters. Unbelievers will ask questions of Christians. Christians must emulate the Master and be ready to give an answer.

Question 1: Won't a good moral life get me to heaven?

a. Hebrews 11:6
b. John 3:16-18
c. 1 Peter 2:24
d. Ephesians 2:8-9

Commentary: God requires belief in him along with a good moral life to achieve eternal life.

Question 2: What will my friends think? My friends mean so much to me.

a. 2 Timothy 2:12
b. James 4:4

Commentary: When you stand in judgement before God it will not matter what your friends think. Your friends will be too busy giving an account of themselves before the Almighty. One must obey that form of doctrine that can save the soul while it is still day.

Question 3: Why are there so many hypocrites in the church? Someone who said he was a Christian hurt me.

a. Isaiah 45:22
b. Romans 14:12
c. Matthew 7:21-23

Commentary: Christians come from all walks of life. Unfortunately, some still carry the baggage of the beckon elements of the world. Remember the church is a hospital for the sinner and Christ is the great physician. All Christians are at different points on the road to salvation.

Question 4: Why should I believe a book that is full of errors and a God that does not exist? I do not understand.

a. Romans 11:33
b. Psalms 25:14
c. 1 Corinthians 2:10-16

Commentary: The Bible is the inspired Word of God. Belief in God requires faith. The Bible is the proof of God’s existence to man

Question 5: Why does it matter what church you go to? Does it matter what you believe if you are sincere?

a. John 4:10-14
b. John 6:48
c. John 8:12

Commentary: Christ only built one church and one body of believers. The way to Christ is through hearing and studying the Word of God.

Question 6: How do you know which is the right way? There are so many different religions and denominations.

a. John 14:6
b. John 10:9
c. John 11:25

Commentary: Christ said I am the way the truth and the light. There is only one way to God and that is through his Son. The Christian’s task is to reach out to that unbeliever and bring him/her to Christ. Members of the Church must reach out to those in other religions and denominations by using their understanding of the Scriptures.

Quote of Introspection:

Faith is different from proof; the latter is human, the former is a Gift from God.

Blaise Pascal

 


Study to show thyself approved unto God
a workman that needeth not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth.
 

II Timothy 2:15
