Sermon Questions: Luke 13:31-35

  1. Jesus had enemies! Describe their tactic to discourage him.
  2. Dissect how Jesus responds. How does he deal with enemies?
  3. Even though Jerusalem had been the location of demise for many prophets, Jesus (God!) still wanted to gather them like a hen gathers her chicks. How do you make sense of that?
  4. Verse 35 acknowledges that ‘some chicks just refuse to get close to Mother Hen’. What does it mean their ‘house is left to you desolate’?
  5. Is there any hope in the phrase, “You will not see me again until…”? What hope is there even for enemies?

James 5:13-20 - A life of faith is a life of prayer. It’s also a life lived with others. When we follow Jesus, we belong to Him and to one another as brothers and sisters. As a family, we care for one another in weakness, confess our sins to each other, and gently confront one another.
