GETTING STARTED APPLICATION...
Transcript of GETTING STARTED APPLICATION...
Week #13 – Apr 25/26 - SPRING 2020
APPLICATION QUESTIONS:
Read Psalm 32:1-7
1) What is the source of blessedness in this psalm? Have you ever felt like you are beyond God’s
forgiveness? What did David do to find forgiveness?
Read Psalm 32:8-11 2) It is easy to hear that God forgives, but why is it so hard to forgive others?
Read 1 John 1:8 3) Here in this verse, John attacks the false teacher’s second claim that people have no natural
tendency toward sin. Some so-called Christians claim to have reached a higher spiritual plane
where sin no longer exists. Why do people have difficulty acknowledging the sin in their life?
Read 1 John 1:9
4) Many Christians do have difficulty confessing sin. What are the steps to asking for
forgiveness of sins?

Week #13 – Apr 25/26 - SPRING 2020 Page 2
Read 1 John 1:10
5) The person John speaks of in this verse believes they never sin and never have sinned. Why
do people who are bitter and offer no forgiveness to the offender view themselves as righteous?
In other words, “it’s not my fault, I did nothing wrong”.
Read Hebrews 12:15
6) What can happen to unforgiveness? How does unforgiveness spill over into our other
relationships?
