Jesus, Our Prophet

Deuteronomy 18:15-19; Matthew 17:1-8

Sermon Notes:

1) God's word guides us

2) God speaks with us

3) Jesus, the ultimate prophet

Discussion Questions:

1.    What are some rules you absolutely hate following?

2.    What are some things you do, that you don't like doing, but you know are good for you?

3.    Imagine being in love, how does it feel "doing all the right things to make a relationship healthy"? Does it feel burdensome or a joy? 

4.    How might a close relationship turn what was "begrudging obedience" into joyful expressions of love and trust?

5.    How was Jesus a better law giver then Moses? How was Jesus a better covenant mediator then Elijah?

6.    How are you called to be like Jesus, specifically how do we, as his body, continue his prophetic role in the world?
