Discipleship Class 2007 - Assignment #5

1) One of the quotes from Last weeks class came from Dietrict Bonhoeffer's book The Cost of Discipleship:

"This call to Christ initiates the most intimate allegiance imaginable. An
allegiance that openly supersedes all other relationships."

Share with me what you think this means for yor life. How do you see yourself living it out & where do you see yourself lacking?

Discipleship Class 2007 - Assignment #4

Well, last week we ended our section called, Called to the Kingdom of God & began our section called, Called to Christ. So, here are this weeks questions:

1. How are the two sections tied together, both scripturally & theologically(hint: you might have to go back to the first lecture on the Kingdom of God)?
2. What does it mean for you to be called to both the Kingdom of God & to the person of Jesus Christ, as well?

There you go, have fun!

Discipleship Class 2007 - Assignment #3

Dear Class,

This week I thought I would ask a couple of questions that ask you to take what we have talked about in class & think about how it applies to your life, so here goes.

1. This week we finished talking about the 8 OT attributes/anticipations of the Coming Kingdom of God, One of the was that, "The day of the Lord would be a time of Peace." ----How have you experienced the Peace of the Kingdom in your own life, be as specific as possible.
2. We also talked about the fact that with the coming of Jesus, the kingdom of God has entered the world. We are now citizens of the Kingdom. So, XA should reflect the kingdom, right? So, how do you see the Kingdom of God in XA?

There you go, have fun.
