[Sunday] Be Perfect? - Say What - Jesus Said What?

ServiceSundaySermonsNews
Written By Cris Escher

Matthew 5:48

Wait, are we really supposed to be perfect like God? That’s a lot of pressure! But what if the perfect is more like the completion of the seventh day? Perhaps, in the perfection, we will finally find rest.

Sunday Bulletin June 16th

QUESTIONS FOR THE WEEK:   Say What?  Jesus said What? - Be Perfect?

  1. Share a story of a time you felt pressure to be perfect.  What effect did that pressure have on you?

  2. Read Matthew 5: 43-48.  What does it mean to be perfect?  Discuss the idea of completeness vs. flawlessness.

  3. How does God show perfect or complete love for us?  Can you think of examples from the Bible or your own life?

  4. How can we bring God’s seventh day of completeness and rest to others, even our enemies?
