承受永生的藍圖 The Blueprint for Eternal Life
《馬可福音》記載了三段對話。耶穌在其中探討了如何獲得永生的問題。本週日，張國強牧師將深入解釋每一段對話，藉此闡明我們必須做什麼才能承受永生。
This week’s passage in the Gospel of Mark covers three distinct conversations in which Jesus addresses the question of how to attain eternal life. This Sunday, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung examines each dialogue to share God’s blueprint for inheriting eternal life.

Life Group Discussion Guide
1. Start with a prayer
2. Engage one another (15-30 mins)
• What is one small “blessing” in life right now that might easily become an idol if not guarded carefully?
3. Engage the mind (15-20 mins)
• Read the passage. How does it show that salvation is fully dependent on God’s grace rather than human effort?
• What does this passage teach you about the difference between external obedience and the condition of the heart?
4. Engage the heart (15-20 mins)
• What are the things in your life right now (e.g., money, comfort, reputation, achievements) that may be competing with God? If God were to ask you to sacrifice one of those today, what would be the hardest to leave and let go? Why?
• Examine yourself: Are you more like the rich young man (holding back) or like Peter (willing to leave things behind) at this season of your life? Why?
5. Engage the hands (15-20 mins)
• What is one practical step you can take this week to loosen your grip on something that has become an idol?
• Who can you encourage or walk with this week to help them grow in their understanding of God’s grace?
6. Engage with God in prayer (20-30 mins)
• Praise the Heavenly Father for the gift of eternal life made possible through Christ alone. Thank Him that salvation is not dependent on your goodness, wealth, or effort, but fully on His amazing grace. Rejoice that Jesus lovingly exposes the idols of the heart so that you may walk in true freedom. Celebrate His promise that every sacrifice made for His sake is rewarded both in this age and in the age to come.
• Repent for the times you have relied on your own morality, achievements, or resources to feel secure or worthy before God. Ask forgiveness for allowing wealth, comfort, and self-effort to take the place of trust in His grace. Pray that you may surrender whatever competes with Jesus in your heart, and that you would learn to follow Him wholeheartedly, believing that He is worth more than anything you could ever give up.
