Jesus Asked Questions

Why Jesus asked questions and why we should also ask questions. a 1-minute devotion.

Jesus often asked questions before giving answers.

When the rich young ruler asked, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” most of us would have gone through a prepared speech ending in the sinner's prayer.

But Christ said, “Why do you call me good?” and He probed deeper to discover the man's intent (Mark 10:17-27).

Although it's not an evangelism verse, James 1:19-20 is great advice for sharing Christ: 

"You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry."

When we share Christ: 
  • A great devotional!!
    We should take time to listen and ask questions.
  • We should think before we speak.
  • We shouldn't take disagreements personally.
It's easy to use formulas when sharing Christ, but we do more good by discovering what people are really saying and answering the right questions.

I encourage you to do the Bite Size Bible Study based on this devotion: Understanding Why Jesus Asked Questions

We sometimes view evangelism as confronting a stranger on the street, but God uses our gifts and personalities in a variety of ways. Check out the Bible Love Notes collection called What's Your Evangelism Style? for more insights into sharing Christ effectively.

  1. This is so true! Such a good verse to apply in so many situations. Making sure that we understand a person's questions before we try to answer. Also, asking questions often reveals the motives of their own hearts.
