About this sermon
The King Requires - Mark 10:13-31 Jesus used his meeting with children and a rich young man to teach that we can only enter the kingdom of God by depending fully on him. Here are some questions to think more about the true story from the Bible: 1. What is it about morality and wealth that makes people self-confident? How were both of these a hindrance to this man trusting in and following Jesus? 2. How does the example of the young children help us to understand what it means to follow Jesus? 3. What might we want to keep hold of, even when we come to Jesus? 4. Do you ever feel that you have made sacrifices to follow Jesus? How are Jesus’ words in verses 29-31 an encouragement to you? 5. Thank God that your salvation does not depend on what you have or have not achieved, but only on Jesus. Pray that you will have a childlike dependence and be willing to give everything up because Jesus is so precious.
