Unit 23  Session 3

DISCIPLES ARE FOUND

LUKE 15

In telling the parables of the lost sheep, coin, and son, Jesus expressed God's heart, One that seeks after lost people.

The kingdom of Heaven that Jesus brings reorients all of humanity's priorities, understandings, and thoughts. By realigning human hearts to God's ways about what it means to be blessed and how to practice righteous deeds, Jesus turns His disciples' attention to why He has come to bring about this radical reorientation: namely, to seek and save those who are lost (Luke 19:10).

Points to consider:

   The lost are sought with urgency.
     * What kind of people do some 
        perceive to be beyond redemption 
        in our day? 

✞   The lost are sought with diligence.
     * How does the doctrine of election 
        humble us and keep us from 
        exalting ourselves?
     * How might we rejoice with those 
        who come to faith in Jesus?

✞   The lost are sought with compassion.
     * What are some reasons people seek 
        restoration?
     * How do you respond when someone 
        who seems undeserving of salvation 
        comes to faith?
