The following lesson was taught in our children’s Sunday School classes on Sunday, July 18. We would encourage you to use the ideas below to review Sunday’s lesson with your family.
Jesus’ Death and Resurrection
Read: Matthew 27:27-28:20
Ask your child:
- Why was the death of Jesus important? Through His death, Jesus made full payment for the sins of humanity.
- Why was the resurrection of Christ important? Jesus’ resurrection proved that He had defeated sin and death.
Emphasize this principle: Jesus died for our sins and rose from the dead. Therefore, we should rejoice and embrace Him as Lord.
Practice:
- Praise God for Christ’s sacrifice.
- Follow Jesus as Lord.
Praise: “How Great Thou Art”
Prepare for next week: Acts 1:1-11; 2:1-47
Memorize for July 4-18: “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many. Mark 10:45*
