These discussion questions are from our young adult group meetings at our congregation. Please feel…
I once opened a book on religion and the first chapter began with, “In the beginning, humans created God…” Sadly, many people today that God is simply a man-made human idea. What if someone asked you, “Why do you believe in God? How do you even know that God exists?” How would you answer? Together, we will approach how to answer this question this from different angles.
Yeshua says He came to fulfill the Torah and the Prophets. How has He, or will He, fulfill? What does a "jot" and a "tittle" (or “serif,” “iota,” or “dot”) mean? Will the Torah be changed or obsolete once "all is fulfilled" / "heaven and earth pass away"? What do you think being "least" and "greatest" in the kingdom of heaven means? What determines that? What is one way you can apply what you have learned today to your life?
Read Matthew 12:28-34. Why is the Shema important? What are some traditions associated with the Shema? Who is the LORD our God? What does it mean that He is One, echad? What are some practical ways we can live out these verses?
