THOUGHT PROVOKING QUESTIONS | MATTHEW 16:8

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) The Yeast Of The Pharisees And Sadducees

Matthew 16:5-12
5 When the disciples went to the other side, they forgot to take bread. 6 “Watch out,” Jesus said to them, “beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” 7 So they began to discuss this among themselves, saying, “It is because we brought no bread.” 8 When Jesus learned of this, he said, “You who have such little faith! Why are you arguing among yourselves about having no bread? 9 Do you still not understand? Don’t you remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up? 10 Or the seven loaves for the four thousand and how many baskets you took up? 11 How could you not understand that I was not speaking to you about bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees!” 12 Then they understood that he had not told them to be on guard against the yeast in bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
