Our Sunday school topic for today
focuses on the worship,
jealousy, and rage .
In worship as in your emotions, you are thanking God and praising Him. But
Cain worshipped in ways that were disapproved in his time, and he looked at
worship as a means to gain rewards from God. As a result, he caused terrible
tragedy in his and his brother's life.
Ask the students - Have you ever felt jealous of someone?
Ask the students - Did it make you resent them??
Describe a person who has become jealous of their brother or sister.
Ask: Does the jealousy hurt their friendship and family loyalty?
Describe the person God would want you to be. Ask: How would this person
act, even if favoritism had been shown to a brother or sister?
What does the Bible say?
Describe the joy and personal reward of asking forgiveness when you
recognize this problem in yourself
Challenge students to serve those for whom they have felt jealousy,
perhaps in a small but meaningful way
