January 11- 18 Bible Readings:
In a Nutshell: People can be very persuasive with their convictions. But from where do those convictions come. Are they from a false religion, an empty philosophy or a human tradition? Those things will leave you empty. We have been awakened to an eternal celebration in Christ, dare we settle for less?
Ice Breaker: When you think of the terms “bate and switch” does that bring to mind any time that you felt cheated? (a.k.a. deceived)
Title: “Don’t be Deceived...“
Text: Colossians 2; Jeremiah 7
Some Questions to Consider:
- What was Paul’s goal in writing to the Christians at Colosse? Col. 2:2-4
- What did Paul want them to “see to it” that didn’t happen? Col. 2:8
- What do people’s lives look like when they are church goers but confused about Jesus, His relationship to God, and not confident in their relationship with Him?
- What have you done to help your children/grandchildren avoid being deceived by these?
