Questions to Consider:
God rested on the 7th day. He wants us to rest in Him (Matthew 11:28). Rest is a gift! Are you accepting that gift? How can you honor God through rest?
Knowing that Matthew becomes one of Jesus’ disciples, what significance is presented by Praetor Quintus’s comment to Matthew (about betraying his people)?
Simon Peter and Andrew were in a difficult position. What do you think about Peter’s attempt and methods to handle the situation?
Mary shares a great testimony to Nicodemus saying, “I was one way, and now I am completely different, and the thing that happened in between was Him.” Not even sure who Jesus was at the time, she makes a powerful statement: “I will know him for the rest of my life.” Thoughts?
Which Sabbath dinner depicted was Jesus a part of? Which Sabbath dinner would you have been at?
