| − | '''Creation'''
| |
| − | <p>In the beginning, there was God.
| |
| − | God is a Family and is made up of two Beings. One is God the Father and the other is the Word. God had a plan to reproduce Himself. Through much design, His plan began with the creation of angels, heaven and earth. The earth was beautiful and full of life.
| |
| − | After millions of years, there was trouble with some of the angels. This caused great problems on earth</p>
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''Creation'''
| |
| − | '''1 CHILDREN’S BIBLE LESSON'''
| |
| − | <p>And it became a very dark, dead place, covered in water.
| |
| − | God then decided to create human beings. If they obeyed Him, these beings would eventually be born into the God Family. Human beings needed a home, so God recreated the earth. Re-creation of Earth God created the earth by telling the Word what should be done. The Word obeyed and completed His work through the power of God’s Holy Spirit.</p>
| |
| − | <p>The earth was covered with thick clouds. On the first day of creation God caused the dark clouds to go away. Once again, the earth felt the warm sunshine after a long time without it. This also caused night to be dark and daytime to be bright.
| |
| − | Look down at your chest. What is it doing? As it moves up and down, you are breathing air. On the second day, God created the air that is needed for life. This air was clean and had many big white clouds. The air covered the earth like a giant bubble.</p>
| |
| − | <p>The next step in God’s creation was to make land. On the third day, God separated the dry land from the water. He called the land Earth and the water became the oceans, lakes and rivers. But this dry land was empty. So God created grasses, plants and trees to cover the earth.
| |
| − | On the fourth day, God let the sun, moon and stars shine bright. He did this by removing the last of the dark clouds, gases and dust. The moon and stars were for night and the sun was for day.</p>
| |
| − | <p>On the fifth day, God filled the oceans with life. Fish, sharks, whales and other sea creatures were created. God also
| |
| − | filled the sky with every flying creature. On this day, God created all the birds that you see. God blessed these animals.
| |
| − | This allowed both the water and air animals to multiply and fill all the earth.
| |
| − | The dry land still had no animals.
| |
| − | On the sixth day, God filled the earth with every creature. He created lions, bears, squirrels, horses, and cows. He also created reptiles like snakes and lizards. The land was filled with all kinds of animals.</p>
| |
| − | On the sixth
| |
| − | day, God also created
| |
| − | man from the
| |
| − | dust of the
| |
| − | ground. God
| |
| − | made man in the
| |
| − | same form as
| |
| − | Himself. Humans
| |
| − | have eyes and ears—
| |
| − | and so does God! God
| |
| − | put men on a level
| |
| − | greater than all the animals
| |
| − | in the sea, land or
| |
| − | air. Man was in charge
| |
| − | of all of these animals.
| |
| − | The first man was
| |
| − | Adam.
| |
| − | God made a special
| |
| − | place for Adam to live.
| |
| − | This place was the
| |
| − | beautiful Garden of
| |
| − | Eden. God gave Adam
| |
| − | the job of naming all of
| |
| − | the creatures on earth.
| |
| − | Adam obeyed and listened
| |
| − | to his Creator. He
| |
| − | named all the birds, all
| |
| − | LEVEL 2 / LESSON 1 4
| |
| − | 5 CHILDREN’S BIBLE LESSON
| |
| − | the land animals and all the fish in
| |
| − | the sea.
| |
| − | Yet Adam was lonely. He was created
| |
| − | on a higher level than all the animals.
| |
| − | He wanted company. God saw
| |
| − | that Adam was
| |
| − | alone and He
| |
| − | knew what Adam
| |
| − | needed. God
| |
| − | caused Adam to
| |
| − | fall into a deep
| |
| − | sleep. He then
| |
| − | took a rib from
| |
| − | Adam and created
| |
| − | a woman from it.
| |
| − | When Adam
| |
| − | awoke, God gave
| |
| − | this woman to
| |
| − | him. He was very
| |
| − | happy to see a
| |
| − | friend and a mate.
| |
| − | Her name was
| |
| − | Eve.
| |
| − | God also
| |
| − | blessed Adam and
| |
| − | Eve. He told them
| |
| − | to start a family
| |
| − | by having children.
| |
| − | In time, He
| |
| − | wanted their children
| |
| − | to fill the
| |
| − | earth. God put
| |
| − | man in charge of
| |
| − | all the creatures of the earth and all
| |
| − | the fruit of the trees and plants.
| |
| − | God looked at all that He had
| |
| − | made. He saw the sun, moon, stars,
| |
| − | air, land, sea, fish, birds and animals.
| |
| − | He also saw the first man and
| |
| − | woman. And He said, “All I have
| |
| − | created is very good.”
| |
| − | The earth was complete. But
| |
| − | God was not done with creating.
| |
| − | The Sabbath
| |
| − | On the seventh day, God created
| |
| − | something very special. After six
| |
| − | days of hard work, God created a
| |
| − | day of rest and called it the Sabbath.
| |
| − | He rested on this day and He commanded
| |
| − | man to also rest on this day.
| |
| − | God made this a law: Man is to
| |
| − | work six days a week, but on the last
| |
| − | day of the week, man must rest. God
| |
| − | set the seventh day as the Sabbath
| |
| − | forever. That is why we keep the
| |
| − | Sabbath today.
| |
| − | God created this day because
| |
| − | He knows what is best for man. He
| |
| − | knows man must take time to rest,
| |
| − | to listen to God and to learn from
| |
| − | Him. Every Sabbath, God wants us
| |
| − | to learn more of His laws and way
| |
| − | of life. God taught Adam and Eve
| |
| − | on this day.
| |
| − | Adam and Eve lived in the beautiful
| |
| − | Garden of Eden. There were
| |
| − | two unusual trees in the garden. One
| |
| − | tree was called the Tree of Life. God
| |
| − | told Adam and Eve that they could
| |
| − | eat the fruit from that tree anytime.
| |
| − | And if they ate from this tree, they
| |
| − | would live forever.
| |
| − | God also planted another tree, the
| |
| − | tree of the knowledge of good and
| |
| − | evil. God told Adam and Eve that
| |
| − | LEVEL 2 / LESSON 1 6
| |
| − | 7 CHILDREN’S BIBLE LESSON
| |
| − | they could not eat of this tree. If
| |
| − | they ate its fruit, they would die.
| |
| − | God was serious. He knew what
| |
| − | was best for Adam and Eve. He
| |
| − | loved them and He gave them a
| |
| − | choice.
| |
| − | In the Garden of Eden, there was
| |
| − | another being. This being was once
| |
| − | a great angel, but he became evil.
| |
| − | He hated God’s laws and His way.
| |
| − | His name was Satan, and in the
| |
| − | Garden, he appeared in the form of
| |
| − | a serpent.
| |
| − | One day, Satan came to Eve. He
| |
| − | asked her if there was any tree that
| |
| − | she could not eat from. She replied
| |
| − | that she could not eat of the tree of
| |
| − | the knowledge of good and evil.
| |
| − | Because Satan hated God, he tried
| |
| − | to get Eve to not listen to God’s loving
| |
| − | commandment.
| |
| − | Eve ignored what
| |
| − | God had taught her.
| |
| − | She disobeyed God
| |
| − | and chose to listen
| |
| − | to Satan. Eve ate the
| |
| − | fruit of the wrong
| |
| − | tree. She made a
| |
| − | very big mistake.
| |
| − | She asked Adam to
| |
| − | eat of the same tree.
| |
| − | He disobeyed God
| |
| − | and ate of the tree of
| |
| − | knowledge, too.
| |
| − | This was a big
| |
| − | event for man. God
| |
| − | had taught Adam
| |
| − | and Eve His laws but
| |
| − | they disobeyed. By
| |
| − | eating this fruit, they
| |
| − | decided to choose
| |
| − | for themselves what
| |
| − | is right and what is
| |
| − | wrong. When we disobey,
| |
| − | there is certain
| |
| − | punishment we must
| |
| − | face.
| |
| − | Soon after, God
| |
| − | was walking in the
| |
| − | Garden looking for
| |
| − | Adam and Eve.
| |
| − | Adam and Eve were
| |
| − | very afraid because
| |
| − | they knew they had
| |
| − | broken God’s law.
| |
| − | They were hiding
| |
| − | from God.
| |
| − | God asked, “Have
| |
| − | you eaten of the tree of the knowledge
| |
| − | of good and evil?” Adam
| |
| − | quickly said it was Eve who made
| |
| − | him do it. Eve said it was Satan who
| |
| − | made her do it.
| |
| − | This made God very upset. He
| |
| − | punished Adam and Eve. He had no
| |
| − | other choice. God’s law is a wonderful
| |
| − | law, but when we disobey
| |
| − | God, it is called sin. Sin brings punishment.
| |
| − | God made Adam and Eve leave
| |
| − | the Garden of Eden because they
| |
| − | sinned. He also put two great angels
| |
| − | at the entrance to the garden so man
| |
| − | could never enter. Adam and Eve
| |
| − | were forced to build a family, work
| |
| − | and live in a hard land.
| |
| − | Cain and Abel
| |
| − | Adam and Eve had two sons. One
| |
| − | was named Cain and the other Abel.
| |
| − | Cain grew up and became a farmer.
| |
| − | He grew many vegetables and
| |
| − | fruits. Abel grew up and became a
| |
| − | shepherd. He looked after sheep.
| |
| − | Both Cain and Abel were commanded
| |
| − | to give an offering to God.
| |
| − | Abel gave his best lamb, which God
| |
| − | liked very much. Cain gave an
| |
| − | offering of fruit and vegetables. But
| |
| − | God did not like this offering
| |
| − | because Cain’s attitude was bad.
| |
| − | Cain was very jealous of his
| |
| − | brother and became very angry with
| |
| − | him.
| |
| − | LEVEL 2 / LESSON 1 8
| |
| − | 9 CHILDREN’S BIBLE LESSON
| |
| − | One day in the field, Cain was
| |
| − | alone with his brother Abel. Because
| |
| − | he was angry and full of hate, he
| |
| − | killed Abel. Cain saw the horrible
| |
| − | thing he did and he tried to hide.
| |
| − | God came and asked, “Where is
| |
| − | your brother Abel?” Cain did not
| |
| − | answer correctly. God punished
| |
| − | Cain for his great sin. Cain moved
| |
| − | far away from the rest of his family.
| |
| − | During this time, Adam and Eve
| |
| − | began to have more children and the
| |
| − | earth slowly filled with human
| |
| − | beings.
