THOUGHT PROVOKING QUESTIONS | MATTHEW 12:11

1. Self-Reflection

a) We spend most of our lives whizzing through our days. There is precious little time to self-reflect in order to change our perspective on life.

b) A Bible thought provoking question that makes you think is worth asking. It is aimed to help you get started on one of the most important things you can do for yourself; become more self-reflective in order to improve yourself and your relationships.

c) As you read this question, consider how they might challenge long held assumptions you may have about yourself and others. 

d) You may have to read the Bible Reference to give you some ideas of the background to the questions.

3. Bible Reference

a) Healing On The Sabbath

Matthew 12:9-14
9 Now when He had departed from there, He went into their synagogue. 10 And behold, there was a man who had a withered hand. And they asked Him, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”—that they might accuse Him.

11 Then He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out? 12 Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.” 13 Then He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and it was restored as whole as the other. 14 Then the Pharisees went out and plotted against Him, how they might destroy Him.
