DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
Luke was a doctor who wrote from eyewitness accounts to show that Jesus is both fully God and fully man, and He came to save all people.
- When we are rejected, how should we respond? As Jesus did, with love and forgiveness.
- Have you accepted or rejected Jesus? We can accept Him and receive eternal life.
Guide your child to open their Bibles to Luke 4. Choose someone to read aloud Luke 4:21-22. Then discuss the following questions.
What made Jesus different than other religious teachers?
Prompt your child to recall that Jesus spoke with authority. He is the Word (John 1:1) and did not rely on tradition or other people to explain Scripture. Jesus came from heaven and is Lord over all things. He is God the Son and the promised Messiah. (Option: Choose a volunteer to read Phil. 2:3-4)
Jesus’ promise to help everyone, no matter where they were from, upset the people in Nazareth. What does this tell you about God’s heart and man’s heart?
Help your child to recognize that God loves all people. God’s heart is full of mercy and love. Apart from Jesus, man’s heart is full of envy, pride, and selfishness. (Option: read Phil. 2:3-4)
Will Jesus always answer our prayers for healing? Why or why not?
Acknowledge that sin causes pain and suffering. Sometimes God chooses to answer our prayers for healing and restoration; other times He seems silent. We don’t always understand God’s plan, but He is good and one day He will make all things right. (Option: read Daniel 3:17-18)
