Discussion Questions

1. What did the Holy Spirit highlight to you in the passage or the sermon?
2. Chris made the statement that we can live as perpetual nazirites but that Jesus has overcome death….In what ways do you feel the Nazirite vow challenges you to pursue purity in your own life? In what ways do you set yourself apart to the Lord in pursuit of purity? In what ways can you do this in the future? In Numbers 7, the Israelites all bring offerings for the consecration and transportation of the tabernacle as they work together as one body. What are gift or talents that you do, or can, bring to the body as we work together for God’s kingdom?
3. In Numbers 8 and Leviticus 24, it’s clear that the Lord wants the lampstand to shine on the bread of presence continually. What does this say about God? What does it say about his character?
4. How does the Levites being substituted for the firstborns from Passover and their position in service to the tabernacle point us to the gospel?
5. Chris compared grace with the tracks for a trolley car. What does this mean to you and can you remember a time when God’s grace nudged you back onto the tracks?
