Sermon Questions 1. Read Philippians 1:1a. What is your first impression? Why do you think Paul addresses himself this way? 2. When you think of a slave, what thoughts come to your mind? 3. Why is everyone a slave (see John 8:34)? What does enslavement to sin look like? 4. Read Hebrews 11:24-25. What makes sin so attractive? 5. Do you think most people realize they are enslaved to sin (see Mark 10:17-23)? What enslavement is the most powerful of all (see Mark 10:23 and Matthew 6:24)? 6. Read Galatians 5:19-21. What is the end result of enslavement to sin? 7. What is the only solution to the enslavement to sin (see 1 Corinthians 6:19-20)? 8. Why does Christianity (i.e., Jesus) not work for so many people (see Romans 10:9)? 9. Can you honestly say you are a slave of Jesus—that He is your master?
