Who gets to say what God is like?

Mark
Written By Zack McCoy

Notes

  • Mark 12:35-37
  • God isn’t afraid of questions. Neither are we.
  • Jesus is saying “look out for the religious experts”
  • Jesus is the clearest picture of God
  • God is humble. He emptied himself to serve.
  • Religious leaders who aren’t humble don’t understand him.

Questions

  • Who are some religious authorities or voices that you have relied on or listened to for learning more about what God is like?
  • How do those teachings compare with how Jesus is?
  • How is Jesus different from some popular understandings of Christianity?
  • What is something you currently believe about God that you think might be off-base when compared to Jesus?
