Luke 9:28-43
-
What special events in your life do you wish could have lasted forever?
-
Why did Jesus and the three disciples go up onto a mountain? (9:28)
-
What happened while Jesus was praying? Who else appeared and what did they do? What did these other men represent?
-
Peter, John, and James did not want to leave. Have you ever had such an inspiring experience that you wanted to stay where you were, away from reality and the problems of daily life? What are the problems with “staying on the mountain?” How should we regard and use “summit” experiences?
-
Why did Peter suggest that they build shelters? (Other Bible versions call them booths, huts, tents, or tabernacles.) What did Luke say about this idea? (9:33)
-
When else had God said similar words about Jesus as in Verse 9:35? What’s the difference here? (Matthew 3:17, 2 Peter 1:17)
-
What might God want to say to us about Jesus today?
-
Why do you think the three disciples told no one about what they had seen that day?
-
What did Jesus and his three disciples see when they came down from the mountain?
-
Why couldn’t the nine disciples drive out the evil spirit from the boy? After all, just a short time before Jesus had given them power to drive out demons.
-
Who was Jesus talking to in Verse 9:41? How would you like it if he said that to you?
-
What is the connection in this story between belief (faith) and healing? What is the connection between belief and healing in our lives today?
-
How do people approach belief (and faith) today? What area of your unbelief do you want to talk to God about this week?
