Harvest Growth Guide for August 30 - September 4
Mike Moses
Hebrews 11:7
1. What are some aspects of our Biblical faith and Christian practice that are likely to receive criticism or mockery from the world?
2. Read Hebrews 11:7
Just as Noah was warned of a coming global judgment, we are also warned of a coming global judgment. How are these judgments similar and different? (Consider 2nd Peter 3:3-13, Matthew 24:36-44)
3. The Bible repeatedly commends the kind of "reverent fear” that Noah had (Deuteronomy 10:12, Proverbs 1:7, Hebrews 12:28, 1st Peter 2:17). How can you cultivate this reverent fear of God in your own heart?
4. As Christians, we ought to affirm the righteousness of God’s judgment upon sinners (Revelation 19:1-3, 2nd Thessalonians 1:6-10), while desiring for those sinners to receive God’s mercy through Christ (Romans 9:1-3, 2nd Corinthians 5:20). Which of those two do you struggle with more?
Pray for one another: Thank the Lord for salvation from judgment that is found in Christ.
Weekly Scripture Memory:
"Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.” (James 1:12)

1. What is similar and different between The Greatest Commandment (Matthew 23:34-40) and the New Commandment (John 13:34-35)?
2. Read 1 Corinthians 13:1-3
Faith to move mountains, all knowledge, and a willingness to give everything away, are part of the Christian life. What is Paul teaching us in these verses?

How does verse 13 apply to the local church in community?
Pray for one another: That we would love one another as Christ has loved us.
Weekly Scripture Memory:
"Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed; he will answer him from his holy heaven with the saving might of his right hand. Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. They collapse and fall, but we rise and stand upright." (Psalm 20:6-8)
