Week 5: Monday Discipleship Guide

  • Romans 3:1-8

    Then what advantage has the Jew? Or what is the value of circumcision? Much in every way. To begin with, the Jews were entrusted with the oracles of God. What if some were unfaithful? Does their faithlessness nullify the faithfulness of God? By no means! Let God be true though every one were a liar, as it is written,

    “That you may be justified in your words,
        and prevail when you are judged.”

    But if our unrighteousness serves to show the righteousness of God, what shall we say? That God is unrighteous to inflict wrath on us? (I speak in a human way.) By no means! For then how could God judge the world? But if through my lie God's truth abounds to his glory, why am I still being condemned as a sinner? And why not do evil that good may come?—as some people slanderously charge us with saying. Their condemnation is just.

  • 2 Timothy 2:11-13

    The saying is trustworthy, for:

    If we have died with him, we will also live with him;
    if we endure, we will also reign with him;
    if we deny him, he also will deny us;
    if we are faithless, he remains faithful—

    for he cannot deny himself.

  • Q-Does mankind's sin undermine God's faithfulness and righteousness?

    A-No, God's faithfulness and righteousness remain perfect, even when we fall short.

  • 2 Timothy 2:13

    If we are faithless, he remains faithful for he cannot deny himself.

  • *Establish a rhythm of cultivating devotion to Jesus.

    *Learn and internalize the Bible memory verse.

    *Commit the catechism to memory.
