2020 THEME: TRUTH
SERIES: Q & A
TITLE: What about Doubt?
Scripture: Psalm 13; Mark 9:20-24; John 20:24-29
I. THE PRESENCE OF DOUBT
Two stories of doubt and faith:
1. Mk. 9:20-24
-Sometimes what we have to do is take (what little faith we have) and (bring it to God).
2. John 20:24-29
-Be like Thomas. Don’t take something at (face value). (Investigate it). Study it. Stew on it.
II. THE ANSWER TO DOUBT
An analysis of Psalm 13:
-
-
-
- Verse 1: “forgotten” -> Verse 5: steadfast love
- Verse 1: God hides face -> Verse 6: dealt bountifully with him
- Verse 2: wrestled with thoughts -> Verse 6: “sing to the Lord”
- Verse 2: enemy triumphing -> Verse 5: God delivering
-
-
There is often a difference between (how we feel) and (what is true).
Feelings are (unreliable) and can be (deceptive).
