Matthew 16

A Sign or a Savior (Matthew 16:1-12)
God doesn't give special signs to skeptics.

What false teachers or teachings are you listening to?
What do you need to stop ignoring from God's word so He can move you into a relationship with Him?
What do you need to stop ignoring from God's word so He can move you into a deeper walk with Him?
How are the questions you're asking really hypocritical, since you wouldn't believe the answer if you were told?

The Essential Question (Matthew 16:13-20)
Everyone must answer the question, 'Who is Jesus'?

Who do you say Jesus is?
What difference has your answer made in your day to day life?
What are you doing with the key God has given you (the Gospel)?

The Key Revealed (Matthew 16:21-28)
True life is only possible through the cross.

Have you found real life, or are you still living your old life?
What are you afraid of losing by following Jesus?
How are you trying to earn your way into God's good graces? Don't you know that's impossible?
What cross do you need to start picking up daily in order to follow Jesus?
