Forgotten God – Chapter 7 and Afterward
Posted on December 26, 2009 by msmucker

1. Is your life explainable without the Holy Spirit?

2. When something goes well for you, who usually gets the credit?

  Romans 15:17-19 (Worldwide English (New Testament))
    17So, because of Christ Jesus, I am proud of my work for God. 18I will speak only of what Christ has done through me. People who are not Jews have obeyed the good news. They have obeyed because of what I told them and because of what I did.
  19I had the power to do signs and wonderful things through the power of the Holy Spirit. So I have told the good news of Christ all the way from the city of Jerusalem to the country of Illyricum.

3. If you read your own biography or heard a speech at your funeral, how much of it would be about what you’ve accomplished as opposed to what God’s accomplished in and through you?

4. Does this describe your church?

  Romans 14:17 (Contemporary English Version)
  God’s kingdom… is about pleasing God, about living in peace, and about true happiness. All this comes from the Holy Spirit.

How is God’s Spirit currently leading your congregation?

5. Who are you encouraging to walk in step with the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:25)? In what ways are you involved in helping others discern and follow after God’s direction for their lives?
