  7. Selectors– from among the many things Jesus said and did, they chose which stories they wanted to include and which to omit. Arrangers– they organized materials in a particular sequence, not necessarily chronologically but often in thematic blocks. Shapers– they adapted and edited the individual stories from their sources so as to emphasize the themes they wanted to stress. Proclaimers– they were not objective historians, but preached the “good news” about Jesus in ways appropriate to their audiences. See Handouts from Sept. Session (bottom of pg. 4) Oct. 17, 2015 – Gospel acc. to Matthew Review: “Four-fold Role” of Evangelists

  9. Luke 6:41-42 (Aland p. 69) • "Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 42 How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye." Matt 7:3-5 • "Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your eye? 4 Or how do you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ and behold, the log is in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye."

No, you will go down to Hades. Matt 11:21-23 • "Woe to you, Korazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! If the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. 22 But I tell you, it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you. 23 And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted up to the skies? No, you will go down to Hades. Oct. 17, 2015 – Gospel acc. to Matthew Examples: Matthew = Luke

  11. Luke 13:34-35 (Aland p. 191) • "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those sent to her! How often I wanted to gather (episunagagein) your children together, just as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not have it! 35 Behold, your house is left to you desolate; for I say to you, from now on you will not see me until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord’." Matt 23:37-39 • "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather (episunaxai) your children together, the way a hen her own chicks under her wings, and you were unwilling. 38 Behold, your house is being left to you desolate! 39 But I say to you, you will not see me until the time comes when you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord’."

  21. See Jesus in every member of your group. Love each member just as she or he is today. Treat everyone as well as you want them to treat you (the “Golden Rule”). Share only what God is revealing to you about yourself and your own life. Allow each person equal time to share with the group, but don’t force anyone. Be courteous of one another. Allow each person to speak without interruption. Listening is even more important than speaking (we have two ears, one mouth). Do not try to solve another person’s problems. Do not teach, preach, judge, condemn, or give advice. Just listen and offer support. Do not share with others outside the group what you heard in the group. Confidentiality is essential for the trust level of a group. All members of the group assume responsibility for these guidelines.Gently remind and lovingly encourage one another if anyone forgets.
