1.2 Thinking it Through

1. What acts of Jesus in Acts 1 serve as a summary of the chapter?
2. How would you relate the kingdom of God to the giving of the Spirit and to the Great Commission?
3. What is the significance of Jesus’ ascension?
4. What is the significance of the disciples’ choosing Matthias to replace Judas?
5. What is your role in the Great Commission?

Always remember the almighty first rule of working together: Talk About It!

Avoid copying answers. Instead, read the question you did and talk about the answer.
