Community Group Study Notes
-
Have someone in your group give a brief recap of Sunday’s message, highlighting the primary Scripture points and the main idea of the message.
-
How did this message strengthen and/or correct your previous ideas about the coming of the King? Was there anything you heard for the first time or that caught your attention, challenged, or confused you? Did you learn anything new about God or yourself this week?
-
Read Revelation 19:11. Think about this statement again: “King Jesus is revealed as both warrior and judge.” Why must we stay tethered to this truth?
-
Read Revelation 19:12-16. Reflect upon the descriptions given about our King. Out of all of the descriptions, which one stands out to you? Why does it stand out?
-
Think about what the King does (i.e. He rules against the Legion of Doom, He vindicates the martyrs, and He judges every person). How does this speak to the sovereignty, rulership, and authority of our King? Do our lives give testimony to our trust in this King?
-
“The King will judge every person.” In what ways should this bring hope? In what ways should this humble us? Is there anything that we might need to repent of?
-
What does it mean to be on the right side of justice? Are you on the right side of justice?
-
For those that are not on the right side of justice, why is the King’s return a sobering reality? How can this truth create a healthy urgency in us to live missional lives among those around us? Is there anyone that needs to hear and see the gospel through you? How can you continually be praying for them?
-
Do you long for the King’s return? How should this message continue to cause us to live lives of worship and adoration for our coming King?
-
What action step do you need to take in response to this week’s message? How can your group hold you accountable to this step?
Action Steps:
1. Pray for the King’s return and pray for His perfect justice to be done in our world.
2. Pray for those in your circle of influence who need Jesus. Take time as a group to lift up these names before the Lord.
