Questions

1. What's at the top of your "This Is Success For Me" list?

2. To what extent are you still motivated by…

  • worldly success-"making good"?
  • keeping the rules-"being good"?
  • performing to make God happy-"doing good"?

    Do your answers suggest that you still think you need to "add" something to achieve Christian success?

3. Is Christ alone enough to make a man happy, and why or why not? Do you think you have fully grasped the primacy of the gospel of Christ alone by grace alone through faith alone? Explain your answer.

4. What did Paul say about the things from question #2 in Philippians 3:7-9? In Galatians 2:20-21? In Colossians 2:20-23? Is he right? Do you believe it? How should it change the way you think? …The way you live?
