Enjoying Life by Enjoying God Teaching Notes

Sunday night I taught our first session of Church Summer School answering 15 questions as they pertain to salvation. The 15 questions were: 

1. Why must we be “saved?” 
2. How total is depravity really? 
3. What is the result of our depravity? 
4. Does this mean non-Christians can do no good? 
5. If total depravity is true, what happened to my baby who died in infancy? 
6. So, what about people with cognitive function who never heard the name of Jesus? 
7. If Total Depravity is true, then how is salvation possible?
8. Can I resist His grace? 
9. Does this mean that salvation is then founded in my decisive ability? 
10. What should my response be to such amazing grace? 
11. Will everyone be saved? 
12. Who then will be saved?
13. Can a true Christian lose their salvation? 
14. Doesn’t Hebrews teach a Christian can apostasize? 
15. How should I now live as a believer?

Church Summer School session 1 is in the books! Sadly, I am not sure if the recording turned out or not due to the fact that I taught for three hours. We will know soon. [Update: we have it below] Until then, below is a copy of my entire teaching notes for the night with answers. If you missed a few fill-ins you can find them here.
