Discussion Questions

"Sealed in Christ"
Ephesians 1:13–14

Introduction Questions

1. Name something that is guaranteed to happen! What makes it guaranteed?

2. When did you believe in Christ Jesus as your Lord and Savior? Tell us your story!

3. Who shared the Gospel with you growing up? Name as many as you can.

 

Observation Questions

 

1. What does verse 13 teach us about salvation and how we become saved?

2. Many times, we overlook the work/job of the Holy Spirit in our lives. What does verse 14 teach us about some of the roles of the Holy Spirit? Then review these roles.

3. According to the last phrase of verse 14, what is the ultimate purpose of our salvation? How often do you focus on that purpose and give Him what he desires? What are some things we focus on instead of God’s praise?

4. What about Sunday’s sermon stuck out to you or challenged? What did you learn, love, or were you reminded of?

 

Personal Reflection Questions



1. Let’s not assume everyone at FFC is a true believer in Christ.
– Do you know the Gospel, believe in Christ, and know that He saved you from your sins?
– Have you obeyed Christ by being biblically baptized after conversion?
– Do you have certainty of eternal life with God? Is the Holy Spirit your seal and your guarantee?

2. Are you a proclaimer of the Gospel? Who are you sharing this good news to? Who do you need to share this good news with? Who can we pray for tonight?

3. On Sunday, Pastor Todd said, “All of God is pointed at making all of your life reflect His worth and weight.” What part of your life is not yet fully reflecting His worth and weight? What is the Holy Spirit convicting you of right now?

4. In light of our text this week and our sermon on Sunday, how might we respond in obedience? What do you think God is asking you to do?
