July 04, 2007 What do you note about Jesus` approach to praying that could be useful to you?
That I can improve my time in prayer by improving my focus; . I am aware of God`s presence in my life and I talk with Him daily, but it usually not in formal prayer.
This lesson has made me aware that I need to spend more time in prayer and I will work on this aspect of my worship starting now.
July 01, 2007 If John`s baptism was for repentance, then why do you think Jesus was baptized?
Jesus was baptized because although He was without sin, He came to set a perfect example for us and this is God`s Will that we repent of our sins and baptism is the telling of others of our commitment to our Lord and of our new life in Jesus Christ.
July 01, 2007 If you were Mark, writing a short report to demonstrate to a Roman audience that Jesus (a Jewish man) was the Son of God, what would you include in that report?
Since the Romans were primarily focused on power, I would emphasize Jesus` ability to produce such amazing miracles and provide verifiable witness accounts of these miracles as there were many, many credible witnesses to Jesus` power and His many miracles.
