Being a Christian in a VUCA World
Being a Christian in a VUCA World
BY Rev Dr William Wan
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
- 1. Read Mt 7:13-14. The numbers game:
(1) numerical increase is what matters most;
(2) numerical increase will surely come if our techniques and procedures are right;
(3) numerical increase validates ministries as nothing else does;
(4) numerical increase must be everyone’s main goal. - 2. Question: What are some of the pitfalls or consequences of such understanding of ministry?
Read Mt 7:15-20. “Evaluate the prophets/preachers by their fruits, not by their gifts”. How can we discern the true prophet from the false, especially when they appear to perform miracles (21-23)? What fruits should we be looking for? - 3. Read Mt 7:21-23. How can we know the will of God and how can we be assured that we are doing God’s will?
