As we study How Should I Live it is absolutely important that we are clear that salvation is not merited, but a gift! And our response is not a works righteousness but faith working through love and gratitude.
Sermon discussion topics for parents to use with their children:
- Who goes to heaven?
- Who goes to hell?
- How did Jesus turn the usual answer to these questions upside down?
- What are the realizations a person must come to in order to be saved?
- Salvation is a gift, a great gift, and expensive gift, a gift given by grace, a gift received by faith... explain how these were described in the sermon.
- What is the objective and subjective response to this gift?

- Why will only true children of Abraham be saved?
- What was so audacious about Abraham's faith?
- Why do we need to exercise such faith?

The plan of redemption was established even before the creation of the world. The Cross was the completion of that plan. Therefore, work out your salvation with fear and trembling to do the good works God has called you to do.

1 Peter 3:18
Ephesians 5:2
Sermon discussion questions for parents to use with their children:
- How does Paul explain justification?
- Explain the links in Paul’s chain of salvation.
- What proof does Paul give that God is for you?
- Have you ever thought about what it means for Christ to be ever interceding on your behalf?

Who is Jesus of Nazareth and why is this important to each one of us? Mark is bold in his proclamation of who Jesus is and then he challenges us to listen to many voices in history (including a demon) to understand the greatness of Jesus.
Mark 1:1-28
John 5:17-18,3:16-17
James 2:19
Acts 17:30-31
Sermon discussion questions for parents to use with their children:
- Why is it important to remember that these are historical accounts in Mark?
- What does each of these voices say about Jesus: Mark, John the Baptist, God the Father, the demon?
- Why does the demon know so much but not believe?
- What is your relationship with Jesus?
- Why can no one say they have no relationship with Jesus?
- Why is Jesus such a great hope for sinners?
