The Gospels: Seeing Clearly with Spiritual Discernment
Explore the Gospels to understand spiritual sight and discernment, following Jesus’ call to avoid being blind leaders and become true disciples.
📖 Introduction
Welcome to this 3-day Bible study on the Gospels and spiritual discernment. The Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—are central to understanding the life and teachings of Jesus. In Luke 6:39, Jesus warns about the danger of "the blind leading the blind," a metaphor that emphasizes the importance of spiritual sight and understanding, especially for His followers. As disciples, we are called to be those who see clearly with our hearts and minds so that we can guide others rightly.
Too often, people follow teachings and leaders without discerning the truth, leading themselves and others astray. The Gospels teach us how to cultivate spiritual sight—learning to hear God’s voice, grasp His truth, and live in obedience. This study will help us explore what it means to be spiritually discerning disciples in a world filled with confusion, false teachings, and distractions.
Over the next three days, we'll dive into key passages that highlight spiritual insight and the responsibility Jesus gave His followers to lead with clarity and truth. You'll be encouraged to examine your own spiritual vision, understand the pitfalls of blindness, and embrace the transformative power of Jesus’ teachings. Let’s prepare to open our eyes and hearts to the rich lessons within the Gospels!
