Encounter - Sundays

Point #1: Follow Jesus Regardless Of Circumstances - Read 2 Corinthians 2:12-14. What attitude did Paul have, and how did he view himself being lead and used by Christ? (see Gal. 2:20) - How does the imagery of a “triumphal procession” (i.e. conquer/surrender, general/officer etc) relate to your life and Point #1? (see Col. 2:13-15 & Rom. 8:35-39) - What is a specific way/area in your life that you need to step into Point #1 in order to have a greater impact? Point #2: Trust God For The Results - Read 2 Corinthians 2:14-16. How do you think (examples?) the same Gospel can be the smell of death or the fragrance of life? (see 1 Cor. 1:18-25) - Looking at your life, how would you characterize your “smell” (i.e. life/death, attract/repel) in your different circles? (see Eph. 5:1-2 & Ezek. 20:41) - What is an area/way that you can live an impactful (“godly smelling”) life while stepping into Point #2? (see 2 Tim. 2:3-13)
