Small Group Discussion
Read Revelation 2:18-29

GROUP

  1. What are the signs the church is maturing (Rev 2:19)? How would you evaluate HBCPN?

  2. Review the “red flags” of a Jezebel. Have you ever encountered a Jezebel at a church? How was it handled?

  3. Explain the difference between REGRET, REMORSE, and REPENTANCE. Why are REGRET and REMORSE not the same as Biblical REPENTANCE?

BREAKOUT

His is a safe place to discuss struggle with sexual sin. What steps have you taken to avoid sexual sin? Do you need to repent of anything (inappropriate relationship, pornography) NOW?

Pray for one another to “hold fast” (Rev 2:25).
