Here's a list of other things we could do a study on. We should spend at least one week (or longer) on each one. I've crossed out the ones you've already done and put them at the end.
1. Reading books, watching TV, Movies, etc.
2. Why do we need to be careful to not go against our conscience?
3. Social Media, like Facebook
4. What if you don't have time to read the Bible every day?
5. Church discipline
6. Trials
7. Spiritual Gifts, what's the truth about them. Are all of them available now or not? Does the Bible list all of them; etc. 1 Corinthians 7:7, 1 Corinthians 12:7–11, 1 Corinthians 12:27–31, 1 Corinthians 13, 1 Corinthians 14, Ephesians 4:11–13, Romans 1:11–12, Romans 12:6–8, 1 Peter 4:9–11, Matthew 19:11–12, and Philippians 1:29.
8. How do today's prophets and their prophecies compare to the prophecies of the OT prophets?
9. Choose a book of the Bible and do a study on it.
What does it mean to "believe on the Lord Jesus Christ" for the person who wants to be saved?
What thoughts do we need to take captive? Why should we? and How do we do that?
How do a parents sins affect their children? How do the current sins of grandparents affect their children and grandchildren?
Make a list starting with what the sin nature normally does or says and then what the Holy spirit says or does. Anyone could participate showing what things the Lord has shown them to do differently now that they are new creations in Him.
For example: Our sin nature says, I’ll never forgive you! But God says, I forgive you and will never bring up your sin again!
Death, and what Jesus means in John 11:25. etc,
What happens after death.
Heaven: immediately after death, and after eternity starts, and the difference between the two
the Millennial kingdom, (which could also include heaven after death and after eternity starts and the difference, etc.)
Did Gamaliel give the Sanhedrin good or bad advice?
(Acts 5:34–39) What can we learn from this?
Why is fear a sin?
Violence. See Acts 5:33–39. We're seeing this in our country now, whereas we almost never did before. What has changed to cause this to be happening now? This is what Wiersbe says about this passage:
What does the author mean by this?
“Do not allow what you consider good to be spoken of as evil. For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,” (Romans 14:16–17)
Take each verse of Isaiah 3:4–14 and explain how it is or isn't being seen today and what that means for us.
See Nahum 2:13. It is a strange thing that many people do not have a thought for God until a disaster occurs. Then, it is not uncommon to hear someone say, ‘If God is a God of love, why did he permit that to happen?’ What should the Christian’s response be to a statement like that? In Luke 13:1–5 Jesus speaks about atrocities and accidents. How should his words be understood and applied to the events of life today?
Are we supposed to guard our minds or our hearts or both?
Hell, and the Lake of fire, and the difference and what is waiting for those who will go there.
The Prayer of Jabez. Is the well known book and teaching, about this prayer true or false? The scripture about it is as follows: “Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “I gave birth to him in pain.” Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.” (1 Chronicles 4:9–10)
Have any of the people who "died" and were resuscitated really gone to heaven or hell?
Love (which includes forgiveness) which is how Jesus says others will know we belong to Him; what does it look like, etc.
1. How are all of the following verses true? 2. What is the Lord trying to teach us in these verses and the others like them? 3. Why don't they contradict each other? 4. Zechariah 14:11 is talking about Jerusalem, saying it will never be destroyed again, which in turn could mean that the earth would always be here, but would that be true or not?
There are at least 20 verses that say this one way or the other, but I'm just going to share these.
“Generations come and generations go, but the earth remains forever.” (Ecclesiastes 1:4)
“Tremble before him, all the earth! The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved.” (1 Chronicles 16:30)
“He built his sanctuary like the heights, like the earth that he established forever.” (Psalm 78:69)
“Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.” (Mark 13:31)
“... For this world in its present form is passing away.” (1 Corinthians 7:31)
“In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. Like clothing you will change them and they will be discarded.” (Psalm 102:25–26)
“Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence, and there was no place for them.” (Revelation 20:11)
“Therefore wait for me,” declares the LORD, “for the day I will stand up to testify. I have decided to assemble the nations, to gather the kingdoms and to pour out my wrath on them— all my fierce anger. The whole world will be consumed by the fire of my jealous anger.” (Zephaniah 3:8)
This next verse is different from all the others. I picked it out of the study you're doing now because it could apply to this as well....
“It will be inhabited; never again will it be destroyed. Jerusalem will be secure.” (Zechariah 14:11) Note that there are 4 questions to answer about these verses...plus any other question you may discover that needs to be dealt with.
