Do you now have a new burning question in your mind about...What is Truth?
Dr. Tackett put a lot of information on the table. Some of it was what we already new, but a lot of it was challenging our view of what is around us every day. In essence, our Christan World View was questioned.
I want to challenge you a bit more. Below are some questions that I would like for you to think about over the next several days. Like I said after the lesson, choose the questions that are relevant to you right now. You do not have to answer them all. Only the ones that sticking out in your mind after you have had time to digest all that was presented. I would like it if we were to respond in email or here on the blog with some thoughts or opinions.
Discussion Questions
1) What did you see on this tour? What stood out most in your mind?
2) Jesus stated plainly that He had come into the world "to testify to the truth" (John 18:37). Exactly what did He mean by this, and how is this claim connected with those other aspects of Jesus' mission – for example, forgiveness, salvation, redemption, and healing – that we more naturally associate with the ultimate purpose of His advent?
3) How does one's concept of truth affect or determine one's concept of faith?
4) What is the key point of distinction between the biblical concept of truth and popular cultural ideas about truth? How is this point related to the concept of insanity?
5) Read 2 Timothy 2:24, 26 and Colossians 4:5, 6. Why does Paul advise believers to be "gentle" rather than "quarrelsome" in their dealings with outsiders? How does our understanding of the Cosmic Battle affect the way we relate to non-believers?
6) Dr. Tackett poses the question, "Do you really believe that what you believe is really real?" How can we know what we really believe?
