小组问题讨论:

1. 由于上帝指定了五种职份来教导和装备教会,而上帝话语的种子决定了收获,你期望在你参加过的教会中见证哪些收获(生命的成果)?石头地的特征有什么,解释什么决定了我们内心的状况和上帝的话语在我们生命中的结果?
(马可福音4:14,16-17)

2. 在这个堕落的世界里,你作为基督徒经历过什么样的逼迫,以及你曾经甚至考虑过否认你与上帝之间的关系?解释什么是患难,以及什么事可能会导致你跌倒,对上帝感到失望,甚至远离上帝?
(约翰福音 15:19-20; 帖撒罗尼迦后书 1:3-4)

3. 我们应该如何应对生活中遇到的患难,以及话语(种子)应该形成什么样的信念才能来帮助我们渡过生命中的风暴?你是否经历过身份危机,觉得自己没有价值或失去以前的辉煌地位?讨论我们在基督里的身份,有哪些是作为上帝话语的种子,以及我们内心对这的接受程度又是如何。
(罗马书 8:35, 37-38; 以赛亚书 43:1-2; 诗篇 34:6, 17)

CG Discussion Questions:

1. As God has appointed the fivefold ministry to teach and equip the church, where the seed of the word of God determines the harvest, what harvest do you expect to witness in the church that you have attended? What are the characteristics of the stony ground and explain what determines the condition of our hearts and the result of the word of God in our lives?
(Mark 4:14, 16-17)

2. What kind of persecution have you experienced for being a Christian in this fallen world and were there occasions that you even considered to disassociate yourself from God? Explain what tribulation is and what might have caused you to stumble, feel disappointed with God or even turn away from God? (John 15:19-20; 2 Thessalonians 1:3-4)

3. How should we deal with tribulations in our lives and what should be the conviction in the word (seed) to help us weather through the storm in our lives? Have you experienced identity crisis, feeling worthless or losing previous glamorous positions? Discuss what should be the seed sown on our identity in Christ and how receptive have our hearts been to the word.
(Romans 8:35, 37-38; Isaiah 43:1-2; Psalm 34:6, 17)
