Lesson 9 (Nov 25-Dec 1), No Condemnation

In Jesus Christ

  1. What, if anything, is the difference between "us being in Christ," and Christ being in us?"
  2. Can a person be neutral in the controversy between God and the Devil? Or does not being on God's side automatically put one on the Devil's side?
  3. Is freedom a feeling?
What the Law Could Not do
  1. Why do so many people emphasize the necessity of keeping the law when they themselves can't keep it?
  2. Does Jesus Christ help us keep the law so we can be saved?
  3. Is salvation by grace an excuse to not keep the law?
The Flesh or the Spirit
  1. In what way can the flesh be blamed for the evil we do?
  2. Are non-Christians greater sinners than Christians? If not what is the benefit of being a Christian?
  3. How does the Spirit overcome the flesh?
Christ in You
  1. Why did Jesus say "He who is not with me is against me?" Is that really true? What about ignorant non-Christians who are trying their best to be good? What about some Adventists? In what way might some Adventists be against Christ?
  2. Why do Adventists discourage re-baptism?
  3. How can I know if Christ is dwelling in me?
The Spirit of Adoption
  1. Is the concept of being adopted by God as real as if we were handed a real adoption certificate? How real is our adoption?
  2. How authentic do adopted children feel as real children?
  3. What actions of the parents make adopted children feel like biological children?
