CURRENT LESSON PLAN Lesson on Forgiveness Jan 17 and Jan 24, 2021 Intro: Resource - Joseph Bayly - The Last Thing we Talk About (formerly The View from a Hearse)   CURRENT HANDOUT Lesson on Forgiveness Esau forgives Jacob (Genesis 33) - Esau had been robbed of his birthright by Jacob, but Esau forgave him and embraced him. Joseph forgives his brothers (Genesis 45, 50) - Joseph’s brothers sold him, stealing his colorful coat to show his father that he had died. But later Joseph gained great power and was in a position to imprison them or tell their father what happened. Instead, he imprisoned some brothers for a few days, but forgave them and never told his father what they had done. Moses forgives Israelites (Numbers 12) - Miriam, sister of Joseph, was a prophetess and a true leader among the women in her day. But, toward the end of her life, she felt jealousy against Moses and his special relationship with God. Moses had married a nonIsraelite. Miriam was having difficulty accepting her role. So God smote her with leprosy, and directed Moses to send her outside the city for seven days. But Moses interceded with God if her behalf, and he forgave her. Jan 17 and Jan 24, 2021 - Second Week Below... CURRENT LESSON PLAN Forgivness, Part 2 Forgiveness, what does this word mean to you? In the lives of human beings, forgiveness is an action that we will need many times. We will need the forgiveness of God and others, and we will need to forgive others. In the Word of God, the word forgive is mentioned many times. We all want forgiveness when we mess up, but do we desire to forgive others as much as we want others to forgive us? In this lesson I hope that we can understand what forgiveness really is. I pray that we can really grasp the forgiveness of God in our own lives. Also I want us to comprehend the power of forgiving others and what God commands on the subject. CURRENT HANDOUT Forgivness, Part 2 “And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” God Bless You Always CindyGirl - See my church! Adams Hill Church, Morgan County, Tennessee . Jan 17 and Jan 24, 2021- First Week Below... CURRENT LESSON PLAN - Life of Christ - Lesson 3 - Jesus the Miracle Worker, by Lisa DeVinney Author’s Notes: This week we’ll be continuing our series on the Life of Christ by looking at some of His miracles. There are so many recorded in God’s Word. Each teaches us something special about Jesus. We’re going to limit our lesson to only two of them; the first and last recorded in the Gospel of John. And we’re going to learn from each of them who Jesus really was (God in the flesh), and what He wanted us to learn about Himself. CURRENT HANDOUT Life of Christ - Lesson 3 - Jesus the Miracle Worker, by Lisa DeVinney Fill in the Blanks Jesus and His disciples were invited to attend a                            in Cana. During the feast, they ran out of                   . Jesus’ mother, Mary, told the servants to do whatever                         told them to. Jesus told the servants to fill the large waterpots with                        . When the servants served the water to the governor of the feast, he said they had saved the good                      for last. When the                               saw that Jesus had turned the water into wine, they believed on Him. Jan 17 and Jan 24, 2021- Second Week Below... CURRENT LESSON PLAN Grades 3-6 Life of Christ 4 - Triumph to Treachery, by Lisa DeVinney Teacher’s Notes:  For many of us, this has been a busy, exciting, wonderful week celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  I hope you all have a Merry Christmas.  Today’s lesson is going to continue our look at the Savior’s birth, as we read the story of the wisemen, and their search for the Christ-child after seeing His star.   And as we look at the gifts they brought to the baby-King, we’re going to also talk about what we might consider giving the Lord, as gifts from us, today. CURRENT HANDOUT Grades 3-6 Lesson for Sunday School: Life of Christ 4 - Triumph to Treachery, by Lisa DeVinney Fill in the Blanks The                                   were Jewish religious leaders. The Pharisees                                 Jesus because He threatened their honored place in Jewish society. Jesus called the Pharisees and scribes                                   . Some Jewish rulers believed in Jesus, but would not admit it because they were afraid the Pharisees would put them out of the                                    . When                            tried to release Jesus, the people told him to crucify Jesus.   True or False 1. Judas Iscariot was the disciple who betrayed Jesus.  2. Judas was a late addition to the group of disciples. 3. Jesus knew of Judas’ plot to betray Him.  4. Judas was rewarded with money for betraying Jesus. 5. Judas brought soldiers to the room where Jesus was having supper with the disciples.  6. Jesus’ rejection was all part of God’s plan for our salvation.    Devotional Thoughts:    Jesus had to suffer rejection so that we could be accepted by His Father. Jesus had to shed His sinless blood so that ours could be declared clean. Jesus had to die for us to have eternal life. Jesus now lives so that we won’t have to die in our sins.   Lisa's Other Grade 3-6 Lessons -- Lisa DeVinney -- Jan 17 and Jan 24, 2021- First Week Below...
