When we consider what Jesus said about, well, everything, we need to start with what He said about Himself. If Jesus is who He said He is, then we must listen to what He says about everything — because there’s no one with a higher authority than God Himself. // 1. What kind of authorities would you go ask for help in the following situations: Help with homework • Want to buy a house • Want to learn a new instrument • Leak in your basement • Computer is broken • Your ankle hurts • Why does asking the right kind of authority matter? What could happen if you ask the wrong kind of authority, or someone who has no knowledge of what to do? // 2. Read John 10:24-25. What are the “works done in My Father’s name” that Jesus has done? What do those works prove? If you saw Jesus do works like that, what would you think about Him? // 3. Read John 10:27-30. What assurance does Jesus give His sheep? (us as Christians) How does this make you feel? When you begin to doubt that you’re saved, or that you’ll go to Heaven after you die, why are these good verses to return to? // 4. C.S. Lewis said that Jesus was either “a liar, a lunatic, or Lord. What does each of those 3 options mean? Could Jesus be just a “good teacher” or “good example?” Why or why not? Which do you think He is? Why do people not want to accept that Jesus is God?
