Yesterday morning, I had the privilege of continuing the series on Luke's Gospel. My text was Luke 19:28-44. You can get the outline and watch/listen to the message here. The title was "The Things that Make for Peace." Here are a few discussion questions to further your thinking and application:
1. Why does Luke record for his readers the fact that Jesus ordered two of His disciples to get a colt that had never been ridden? Why not just tell us that Jesus rode a colt into Jerusalem? What's the significance?
2. How does the fact that Jesus knew every detail that was about to come His way demonstrate His love for sinners?
3. Why exactly would the rocks have to cry out if the crowd did not say what they said when Jesus entered Jerusalem (See Zechariah 9:9 and Psalm 118:26)?
4. What was it exactly that caused Jesus to weep when He entered Jerusalem?
5. What was the crowd thinking would bring them peace? What does that say about what they thought their biggest problem was? What is humanity's biggest problem?
6. What do you think Jesus was referring to when He said, "the things that make for peace"?
7. If separation from God due to our sin is our biggest problem, how can one have peace?
