Day 3: Matthew 13-18

Here are some questions to consider after listening to today's readings. You can listen at http://www.fbc-elon.org

1. Chapter 13 is packed with "parables of the Kingdom". List several things the kingdom of heaven is like.
2. Why did Herod do away with John the Baptist?
3. When he was walking across the water, why did Peter begin to sink?
4. What kind of things defile (make unclean) a person?
5. Peter makes a great confession and then sticks his foot in his mouth. What did he say in each case?

Matthew 15:6 - "So for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God." These are words which I think the church universal really has to struggle with.
