-822 July 2018Deep Sheet:  Sermon Study Questions1.  What does it look like for us to feel the weight of sin and of grace in our daily lives? How can we cultivate the attitude of John Chrysostom: “I fear nothing but sin”?2.  What does it mean to say that left to ourselves, we always assess wrongly? How do we keep our assessment of reality aligned with God’s?3.  What do you find most striking about the depravity described in vv. 5-6? Discuss the breadth, depth, totality, and offense of this depravity?4.  What does v. 6 in particular teach us about God?5.  Are people less sinful today than at the time of the flood? What are some key passages of Scripture for answering this question?6.  How does the text point us to God’s grace rather than human merit?7.  How does the figure of Noah contribute to a “theology of singularity”?References: Jeremiah 17:9-10; Genesis 8:21; Romans 3:10-12; Romans 8:19-21; Genesis 3:15.
