Ask the Questions

Bigs Discussion Questions

  1. Who is both like God in every way and like us in every way? (Jesus)

  2. Why can Jesus help us when we are tempted? (because Jesus suffered and was tempted)

  3. Did Jesus ever sin when He was tempted? (no)

  4. What message did God use Jesus to bring? (the gospel)

  5. Why can we go to God boldly? (because of Jesus)

  6. What is the gospel? The gospel is the good news that God sent His Son, Jesus, into the world to rescue sinners.

Elementary Discussion Questions

  1. How did God speak to people long ago? (through prophets, Heb. 1:1)

  2. Who is the perfect Prophet through whom God has spoken? (Jesus, Heb. 1:2)

  3. How is Jesus a better high priest? (He lived as a human, but never sinned; Heb. 5:1-10)

  4. Why is the new covenant better?

    Guide kids to see that under the new covenant, we are declared righteous by God. Remind them that Jesus’ sacrifice was perfect, and we don’t need to keep offering more and more sacrifices. The old covenant was sufficient to show people their need for a Savior, but it is the new covenant that provides salvation from sin.

  5. What are things you sometimes value too highly?

    Encourage kids to answer honestly and think about the people, things, or events that they may make idols in their lives. Remind them that Jesus is better, and help them think through ways to adjust their lives to make Him their priority.

  6. How can we hear from God?

    Guide kids to understand that God’s Word, Scripture, has been preserved for us. We can read the Bible to see Jesus’ teachings from when He was on earth, as well as the teachings He gave through His apostles after returning to heaven. Help them remember that the Holy Spirit helps believers understand God’s Word.
