MISSION COMMUNITY QUESTIONS

QUICK REVIEW

Looking back at your notes from this week’s teaching on Romans 11, was there anything that particularly caught your attention, challenged or confused you?

DIGGING DEEPER

1.  Have you ever felt rejected by God? How have you seen through this sermon series that God has not failed His people?  

2. How does the understanding that we are grafted in create in us a more humble heart toward salvation and our view of the current state of Israel.  

3.  Paul argues that Israel's unbelief is partial (Romans 11:1-10), purposeful (Romans 11:11-16), and temporary (Romans 11:25-32) how does this understanding cause Paul respond (Romans 11:33-36). 

4.  Have you ever been frustrated that God has not revealed His complete plan for you or a situation that you are in?  What examples can you share with the group?  How did you respond?  Seeing how Paul's reaction change his worship?  How should it change ours?  

5.  How are you more confident in God, His Word, and His love for you and His people?  How can we rest in knowing God has not failed? 

6.  So what?
