"Where Jesus is, there is life. There is abundant life, vigorous life, loved life, and eternal life. There is life-before-death."
Jurgen Moltmann

Read

Luke 1:76-78, 5:20, 7:47-48, John 8:7 Psalm 7:11, Proverbs 6, Hebrews 4:13, Romans 3:23 Psalm 119, Psalm 23, Ephesians 3:14-21, Malachi 3:10

Reflect

1. In Luke 6:37 Jesus says, "Do not judge, and you will not be judged; and do not condemn, and you will not be condemned..." How have you heard these words discussed in the past - in culture and in the church? 2. Some people see sin as an antiquated concept. Why do you think that is? 3. Tim taught us that God's grace not only forgives us, but grace also empowers us to act. What is your next step empowered by His grace? 4. In Leviticus 19:33-34 the people of God are instructed to love the stranger in our land as ourselves. Would you group be interested in working together to do that?
