Message Title: That Was Easy!
Questions: 

1. How do the words "in view of Gods mercy" help us in our relating to one another and the lost?

2. Do you find it easier to love, forgive and accept others when you think on God’s love for you?

3. We are called to imitate God; what would that look like to you and why does it continue on "as dearly loved Children"?

4. How do the things written in Matthew 18 underline all we read in our passages in Romans and Ephesians? (read together and discuss)

a) The lost sheep ......... what does it teach us?                             
b) Peters question about how many times we should forgive others.
                            
c) A brother who sins against you.
                            
d) The unmerciful servant.    
 

5. What does this teach us about God taking the initiative in restoring us?
  How we should respond to Gods kindness?

Pray that those who come among us will encounter a people who are an imitation of God in us and also God himself. 
Pray that we will be a grace filled church and show grace  
Please pray for the team in School this week. 
Please pray for Christians caught up in the unrest in Zimbabwe resulting from election corruption especially those from our Newfrontiers family of churches for their protection and impact in sharing Christ.
