CG Discussion Questions:
1. What are the 4 distinct instructions to stay away from evil in the main passage and how would you respond living in this fallen world? Discuss what sincere and genuine love should be like, in loving your neighbor as yourself and why love should always have corresponding action.
(Romans 12:9a-10, 15; 1 Corinthians 13:5-6; 1 John 3:18; Matthew 22:37-39)
2. From the story of the Good Samaritan in showing mercy to the victim whom nobody helped, what have you learnt about loving your neighbor, weeping with those who weep and to be the conduit of God to bless those in need? Explain how someone like King Saul who exhibited traits of strife, pride, self-seeking and envy ended up inviting all kinds of evil with no joy nor peace into his life.
(Romans 12:13, 15-16; Galatians 6:10; Romans 12:16-17, 21; James 3:16)
3. By referring to Joseph, a man of character who broke the chain of evil, discuss how we can overcome evil with good when our flesh does not want to do good. Who are your enemies including those who upset you or stir up your emotions, and discuss how it can be liberating to forgive and when you choose to love others instead of being overcome and conquered by evil?
(John 15:4-5; Galatians 2:20)
