Mark 8:34-38
October 12, 2016
1. Our text passage really has more to do with being
a "disciple" of Christ than a soul-winner. How are
these two roles related? What are some terms of
discipleship, according to our text?
2. Read the Great Commission found in Matthew
28:19-20 and reiterated in Acts 1:8. What
exactly are we commanded to do? In what
practical ways are you taking steps to obey the
Great Commission?
3. Why do you think it is possible for a person to
become a Christian, live out the rest of his life, yet
never once have the privilege of leading a single
lost person to Christ? What might we do as a
church to prevent this from happening more often?
4. Our success at winning the lost to Christ begins
with our ability to recognize the value of a soul.
According to our text, just how valuable is every
person in the eyes of God? Are some people more
valuable than others? (See Acts 10:34.)
5. Review the story of the Philip and the Ethiopian
eunuch in Acts 8:26-40. How did the Holy Spirit
orchestrate this man's conversion? What role does
the Holy Spirit play in bring a lost person to Christ?
(See John 16:7-8 & John 6:44.)
6. According to Romans 10:17 and Isaiah 55:11,
what instrument does God use to produce saving
faith and draw the lost to Christ? What are some
practical ways to use God's Word in our soulwinning efforts?

7. Read Romans 1:16. What can you do this week to

try to bring someone to Christ?
