How You Can Experience
God's Love and Forgiveness
Group Discussion Questions
- Is God's forgiveness
also possible through the other religions of the world?
- The word "confess"
means to "agree." It means you are saying, "I agree with you that I
did that wrong thing to you. I am guilty." How much should you tell
God and the person you have wronged when you agree about your sins?
- To whom do you
confess: the whole church, your neighbors, only the person you sin against?
- Suppose God brings
to your mind that last year you stole or used some of your employer's
money and did not pay it back to him. So you confess this sin to God.
Your employer is not a Christian and does not want you to talk to him
about God. As far as you know, he does not know that you stole the money.
What should you do? (See Mark
11:25, Matthew
5:23,24.)
- Can you remember
times in your life when you refused to repent and confess your sins
after God had shown them to you? What happened in you life because of
this? What happened in your public and family life?
- Discuss what can
happen if you do not confess your sins. Will you lose your salvation?
Will you need to believe and receive Jesus Christ again as your Savior?
(See John 10:27-29.)
- What if you commit
the same sin again? Do you need to confess every time? Why do you continue
to do this evil, even after you have confessed? If you confess the same
sin so many times, does this mean that you are not saved?
