In this book you have gone from finding the ultimate purpose in life to glorifying God in trials to risking loss for Christ. Now the focus turns to the way finding joy in God affects the way you treat others. Think about these questions and comments for our November 27th discussion:
- What are some of the things you personally enjoy about God?
- How can you help others enjoy those things with you?
- What are the best reasons you should forgive people who have hurt you?
- List some bad reasons to forgive someone who has hurt you.
- Think about the Robert Murray McCheyne quote on page 102. How is showing mercy related to being a Christian?
- Is it possible to be a Christian and hateful?
- How does 1 John 2:9 support your answer to the last question?

If Christian means "little Christ" then we are to be like Him, always conforming to his image. He shows mercy, thus his advocates to the world will need to as well.
