The Vineyard- August 26, 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 Corinthians 11:17-34
Paul says that their coming together makes things worse, rather than better.  What seems to be motivating the divisions in the church at Corinth?
- Where does Paul say her received the tradition concerning Jesus’ Last Supper?  What does he do with that tradition?  Why is it important?
- Because communion is a celebration of the body and blood of Christ, what does Paul say will happen to those who abuse the meal, or participate in an unworthy fashion?
- When Paul instructs us to discern the body of Christ, what does he mean?  Does he mean the actual body of Christ, or the church as the body of Christ?

Psalm 118:
- What does it mean to say that the steadfast love of the Lord endures forever?
- According to this psalm, where is it best to seek refuge?
- The psalmist states that they shall not die, but live.  What do they resolve to do with their life?
- Who is shown as always acting in this psalm?  What various types of things does the psalm describe God has doing?  How do those things describe the salvation that comes from God?
