Amos 7:1-9
Episode description
Discussion Questions:
1) The prophets’ role included interceding or mediating on behalf of the people to whom God sent them (see Ge.18:22-33; 20:17; Ex.32:1-35). As the true Prophet (Acts 3:19-26), Christ is our great intercessor before the throne of God (Rom.8:34). Knowing you have this advocate at the Father’s right hand, what are you grateful for specifically? Name one prayer or request that you’re asking Christ to mediate for you now?
2) Who are you interceding for in prayer currently? How can we as a SG be praying with you? (See 1Tim.2:1-6)
3) Mercy means mediation on behalf of the guilty. But justice means the unmitigated punishment of all evil. How does the truth that every crime, every evil, every injustice, will be perfectly judged in and through Christ give you hope and courage?
