Finish ch. 24, dip forward to ch. 25 of Matthew's gospel.

We will take one more look into chapter 24 of Matthew's gospel early this Thursday morning, and then we will dip forward to chapter 25. Here are a few questions to use for studying and thinking ahead:
  1. Is the fig tree here in chapter 24 a parable or something else?
  2. Does this sprouting of the fig tree occur before, during or after the destruction of Jerusalem?
  3. What would it be like, to be in the Lord's summertime?
  4. Do fig trees always behave in this manner, sprouting leaves and so forth? How does that help Jesus form the Twelve?
  5. Jesus is the Lord, the Alpha and the Omega. All time and all the ages belong to Him. Yet how is it that Jesus does not know the hour and day of His coming to the gates?
  6. "A person who is damned to hell is damned because of the entire history of his entire family." ←← True or false?
  7. "A person who is damned to hell can actually be damned accidentally, through no fault of their own." ←← True or false?
  8. "Hell is temporary." ←← True or false?
  9. In America, we hold that all men are created equal. Does this apply to the talents that each man has?
  10. Why does God give talents in the way that He does?
  11. When you enter God's joy, what will you be placed in charge of?


We can look into the perfect Torah of freedom, God's word, by thinking over these questions and discussing it all early on Thursday morning.
