Come to Jesus

Main Idea:The triune God conceals himself from the proud but graciously call the humble out of unbelief into rest

I. God is sovereign, and he loves meekness

II. Jesus is sovereign, and he is the only way to know God

III. Jesus calls you out of stubborn unbelief into rest

Questions to consider:

- We respond to violent unbelief with a mixture of grief, fear, and anger. Which of these emotions resonate most with you right now, and how do Jesus' words in Matthew 11:25-30 speak into that?

- Jesus is sovereign and still revealing the Father to unbelieving people today. How does this truth give us courage in the face of hostility?

- What does it mean to "love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" in today's polarized climate? can you think of practical examples?

- consider peter's description of believers as "elect exiles" and a "holy nation." How does this identity shape how we see ourselves in relation to our earthly country or culture?
