Outline
I. TWO SONS: Repent and Believe
Sin doesn’t disqualify you from the kingdom. Obedience doesn’t qualify you. What matters is repentance.
II. PROSTITUTES GO FIRST: The Way of Righteousness
Religious people repent of sin. Christians repent of sin and righteousness.
Discussion Questions
- Are you more like the first brother or the second?
- What is repentance? What is one area of your life where you’re having to repent right now?
- Jesus said, “Prostitutes go into the kingdom of God before you” (Matt 21:31). React to that statement. What do you think he meant? How do you feel about what Jesus said?
- Why is it easier for sinners to repent than for the “righteous”? (This was a big idea in the sermon.)
- “Christians repent of sin and righteousness.” What does that mean? 6. How is Jesus Himself “the way of righteousness”?
