Digging Deeper
Read Luke 6:43-49
- Based on the words you speak, how do you think those around you would describe your heart?
- Are you tempted to blame your circumstances for your speech? What would the last part of verse 45 say to that assessment?
- To have an abundance of something means to have a plentiful supply of it. What is abundant or plentiful in your heart-joy, worry, peace, anger, love, pride, humility?
- Where does a good heart come from? (See Ezekiel 36:26)
- How might the good fruit produced out of the good treasure of our hearts impact those around us for good?
- Why do we not do what Christ has told us to do? (Pride, ease, fear, etc)
- Are you more like the man who built his house on the ground or the one who built his house on a deep foundation?
- What does the flood represent in verse 48?
- Jesus said that his followers should expect to have trouble in this life (John 16:33). If you've experienced a trial in your own life, how did having a solid foundation (or not having one) affect you?
- Do you feel confident that you will stand firm in the final judgment? Why or why not?
- How can we practically help each other to hear Christ's words and do them?
