Paper 193 -- Final Appearances and Ascension
1. What evidence do we have of the Spirit of Truth in our world?
2. Do Christians often mistake Jesus’ command to take his gospel to all the world as meaning Christianity rather than the fatherhood of God and the brother/sisterhood of humankind?
3. How well are the people of our world bearing the fruits of the spirit and living by the principle of continued spiritual growth?
4. What are the best ways to avoid spiritual and physical isolation in our independent society?
5. How do those of us, like Simon Zelotes, combat the domination of preconceived ideas?
6. Why is the farewell message of Jesus to the apostles so inspiring?
7. If the influence of Abner and Nathaniel had been dominant in early Christianity instead of the interpretations of Peter and Paul, how might it have changed the Christian faith?
8. Is one of the major purposes of the Fifth Epochal Revelation to refocus humankind on the fatherhood of God and the brother/sisterhood of all people?
9. Why do you think the weaknesses of Judas were so extensively enumerated?
10. Is it surprising that the mother of Jesus and his brother, James, were with the 120 gathered in Mary Mark’s upper room?
11. Why do you suppose the apostles decided to cast lots to chose between Matthias and Justus to take the place of Judas?
