John 7:37-3837 On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. 

Luke 14:15-1715 When   one   of   those   at   the 

table with him heard this, he said to Jesus, “Blessed is the one who will eat  at  the feast   in  the kingdom of God.” 

16 Jesus  replied:  “A certain man was preparing a great banquet and invited  many guests.  17 At  the  time of the banquet he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.’

Discussion Questions

My Prayer Requests

(S) – on the sermon1. How do you usually get called for supper at home? What do you

usually do when you are called (be honest!)?

2. (S) The Hebrew word for feast has to do with meeting God. Fill in the four words pastor Henry mentioned:

a. A_________________ m_______________

b. H________ c________

3. (S) When Jesus rose from the grave, God didn’t just give us a bunch of facts, but a picture. Like there was a camera at the tomb. What would that camera show?

4. (S) So this last feast in the parable of the banquet is an a______ m_____, a h____ c____ (see #2 above). How does Jesus want us to react to what the people did? Why is what they did when ‘called for dinner’ so odd? What did Jesus actually expect?

5. Read John 7:37 (top of sheet). What do you think Jesus wants here? How does that tie to the Lord’s Supper? What does that mean for you?

6. Thank God that he is a God who wants to be with us, and that Jesus is alive, and that we are not alone. Ask God to help you hear Jesus’ call to come to him.
