The Vineyard- May 20, 2012


The Vineyard
I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. – John 15:5

I Peter 2:13-25:
- What does God tell us to be subject to human authorities?  When we show submission to our human rulers and those over us, who are we really doing it for?
- How does this passage tell us to treat other human beings?  How does it tell us to treat other Christians?  How are we to treat God?
- Our ability to suffer injustice is motivated by whose ability to suffer injustice?
- When Christ suffered injustice, who was he doing it for? 
- Who are we to entrust ourselves to?


Psalm 24:
- In this psalm the Lord claims ownership of the world, and all that is in it.  On what basis does God make this claim?
- According to this psalm, who is it that may approach the Lord? 
- The psalm says we will receive “righteousness” from the God of our salvation.   What does that mean?
- What names are used for God in this psalm?  What significance do you think they have?
