Discussion Questions
1. Of the three gospel threads (Temple, Inclusion, Prophet), which one jumped out to you the most? Why?
2. Are you ever tempted to treat God’s presence as something you go to on Sunday morning rather than something you carry on Monday morning? What would change on Monday if you truly lived like He lives in you?
3. Jesus declared that if they destroyed this temple, He would raise it in three days. All this was pointing to Him being the replacement of the whole system. Where are you still running back to the old "temple system" (performance, ritual, religious effort) to get to God instead of resting in the work that Christ has already accomplished?
4. The 1st Solomon prayed for the foreigner and outsider, the greater Solomon died for the foreigners and outsiders. Who is the "foreigner” or “outsider” your heart instinctively assumes is outside of God’s family and not on His guest list? Why?
5. Every prophet pointed to God, but Jesus is God. Whose voice are you currently treating as the final word that should be subordinate to His voice? Where have you inadvertently substituted a podcast or a sermon for actually hearing God's Word for yourself?
