Yet here he talks about division and family strife. Is this contradictory?\u00a0 No, Jesus recognizes that his vision is challenging; many will reject it.\u00a0 Division between those who commit to following him and those who refuse to embrace his distinctive type of peace is inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>The signs are everywhere, as obvious as the weather. Jesus is doing everything the prophets said the Messiah would do. Conflict with those who resist God\u2019s coming kingdom has been building to the crisis point.\u00a0 He has one more act to complete, what Jesus calls his \u201cbaptism,\u201d that is, his crucifixion and resurrection. When this work is finished, it will be time to choose sides, either worshipping Jesus as Lord, or rejecting him as a fraud. There is no middle ground.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Talking about Jesus brings division, sometimes even to the strongest family ties. There is no room here for \u201cdon\u2019t make waves,\u201d or \u201canything to keep the peace.\u201d We are to show our devotion to the Lord in thought, word, and deed, no matter what the consequences. They may be good \u2013 we may turn away robbers, inspire faith, spread joy. Or we may upset people.<\/p>\n<p>If you looked at the courage of Nayara Goncalves and thought, \u201cI can\u2019t do that,\u201d you\u2019re right, you can\u2019t \u2013 alone. But we are not alone. We have the Holy Spirit, who has promised to give us words. We have the example of those who have gone before us (see today\u2019s New Testament lesson, Hebrews 11:29-12:2). And we have each other, fellow Christians, for strength and encouragement. Those abiding in the love of Jesus cannot be divided.<\/p>\n<h3>Discussion Questions<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Have you ever had to risk rejection or unpopularity because of your faith? What did you do? If you could go back to that incident, would you change your actions?<\/li>\n<li>Are you or do you know anyone who is the only Christian in his or her family? What kind of support can the Body of Christ, the Church, give such people, so that they can live out their faith and not feel alone?<\/li>\n<li>When and where do you find it most difficult to behave like a Christian? What suggestions do class members have for staying true to Christ in these situations?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Activity Suggestions<\/h3>\n<p>Practice responding to those who question or ridicule Christian belief. List some of the arguments you have heard against belief in Jesus (I don\u2019t understand it.\u00a0 Following the Christian way is too hard.\u00a0 It\u2019s only for stupid or weak people, etc.). Come up with answers to those arguments. If time permits, act out some scenarios, with one person playing a skeptic and another, a believer.<\/p>\n<p>Suggested Songs: Onward Christian Soldiers, Lift High the Cross, The Battle Belongs to the Lord (contemporary)<\/p>\n<h3>Closing Prayer<\/h3>\n<p>Father, we humbly admit that we are weak in our desire and ability to speak out for you. Let us pray for and encourage one another. We ask for your Spirit to inspire in us the words and actions that will best glorify you.\u00a0 In the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Contributed by Sylvia Alloway, Granada Hills, CA Warm-up Question What would you do or say, if you came face to face with someone who wanted to rob you?\u00a0 Speaking of Jesus&#8230;in All Times \u00a0\u201cI really hate to do this\u2026\u201d began the man with the gun. \u00a0The clerk behind the counter at the wireless phone store [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1400],"tags":[5888,5887,334,5886,498,319,425,5889,414,397,35,331,418],"class_list":["post-1870","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-post","tag-choice","tag-choose","tag-disciple","tag-division","tag-evangelism","tag-faith","tag-faithfulness-to-god","tag-fire","tag-kingdom-of-god","tag-obedience","tag-peace","tag-witness","tag-witnessing"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
