DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
Quick Review: Looking back at your notes from this week’s teaching, was there anything that particularly caught your attention, challenged or confused you?
Digging Deeper:
1) What is the confession of our hope? Why is the vital?
2) How do we hold fast to our confession?
3) How do we help one another endure until the end?
4) What does it mean and how can we provoke one another to love and good works?
5) Why is it important to gather with the church? What is our motivation?
