GENERAL (Questions for each chapter)
1. "Let us seek friends that will stir us up about our prayers, our Bible reading, and our employment of time - about our souls, our salvation, a world to come."

2. God's will is that believers would grow.

3. A man who is growing in grace will love God and love other people more and more.

4. GENERAL: "One of the surest marks of spiritual decline is a decreased interest about the souls of others and the growth of Christ's kingdom."
SPECIFIC:
I need to help my family grow and be more concerned for others.


SPECIFIC (Questions specific to this chapter)

5. A person's sense of sin is becoming deeper, his faith stronger, his hope brighter, his love more extensive, his spiritual mindedness more marked.
This happens through personal disciplines and community living.

FINAL QUESTION

6. If you have reason to hope that you are a true believer and yet do not grow in grace, there must be a fault, and a serious fault somewhere. It cannot be the will of God that your soul should stand still.
