2 Corinthians 6:14 to 11:15

Discussion Questions:

Old Testament

  • Is it fair to say the book of Ecclesiastes is pessimistic. See, for example, Ecclesiastes 1:2-4.
  • We serve a “God of Love.” So how do we reconcile Ecclesiastes 3:3 and 8: “[there is] a time to kill;” and “a time to hate?”

New Testament

  • What does it mean to be an “ambassador for Christ?” Is this term reserved for full time clergy, or does it apply to all believers, more generally? 2 Corinthians 5:20.

FOOTNOTE:

  1. If you are participating in the Saturday morning class, “The One Year Bible Challenge,” you should read the daily materials as set out in The One Year Bible.” The verses listed on this page will include a couple of extra days each week.
