Dec 10, 2023 · One of the reasons why John's gospel is so distinct, so much so that it is regarded as being separate from the synoptic, or common, gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, is the mystical way in which ...

- Thoughts on Teaching Through John Verse by Verse
We actually started before this verse with a verse the girls had already learned: Genesis 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” So when we started our time, I asked, “What did God do ‘In the beginning?'” The girls responded, “He created the heavens and the earth.” We drew a circle at the top of our chalkboard table. We calle...
We did a sort of review of what we learned in the first verse and used this verse to “check our work.” This verse says, “He was in the beginning with God.” Then I asked these questions: 1. Who is He? (the Word) 2. Where was He? (in the beginning) 3. Does that match what we learned about the Word in verse 1? (YES!)
Here are the questions I asked: 1. Who is “Him” in this verse?(the Word) 2. How did all things come into being? (by Him) 3. Wait a minute! Genesis tells me, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” How is it that John tells me that the Word created everything? (the Word IS God) 4. What kinds of things did the Word create? We added ...
I asked these questions: 1. Who is “Him” in this verse? (the Word) 2. What was in Him?(the life) 3. What does John say was the “light of men?” (the life) 4. Do you remember when God said, ‘Let there be Light’?(in the beginning, at creation) 5. Do you think this is the light He was talking about? We returned to our flow chart from our previous days ...
I asked these questions: 1. When is it dark outside? (at night) 2. But are there any things that light up the night sky? (the moon and stars) 3. But “in the beginning” God’s world was completely dark. There was no sun, no moon, no stars. What does this verse tell us shined in the darkness? (the light) 4. What was this light? (the Word) 5. Who is th...
I subscribe fully to the inductive method of studying the Bible. Thus, it is ingrained in me and I almost have no other way of teaching it. It goes really well with the way we have chosen to homeschool G – through the dialectic method. Asking questions, encouraging her to discover truth for herself, to think through the answers to the questions hel...
Nov 10, 2019 · That is the purpose of the church—to bring the light of the gospel into a dark world. When John saw Jesus, he fell at Jesus’ feet. Jesus reached down and put His hand on John. He said, “Don’t be afraid” (Rev. 1:17). Jesus showed Himself to John and explained that He is the First and the Last, the Living One.
It is HIS divine will that young people come to faith in Jesus Christ and find salvation through the Gospel and the work of the Holy Spirit to bring them to faith. > Our website has teaching material for children of all aged: church nursery (age 0-1 years old), toddlers (age 2-3 years old), preschool (age 4-5 years old), young elementary (age 6-8 years old), older elementary (age 9-10 years ...
The Gospel of Luke contains more material about children than the other canonical Gospels do. Throughout the Gospel, Jesus heals children and includes them in his parables and as metaphors in his teachings, referring even to babies. The births of John the Baptist and Jesus are announced and then recounted.
LUKE: The longest gospel, but also a good combination of action and teaching. It also connects seamlessly with the book of Acts, so it would be my second choice for “where to start”. JOHN: The gospel of John is VERY theological. I don’t recommend reading it with kids under 10, as their brains literally cannot grasp the many metaphors and ...

Jun 22, 2023 · Teaching the Gospel to Children. When sharing the gospel with a child, here are a few points to keep in mind: (1) Remember that repetition and restatement are especially helpful. Give the gospel simply and briefly, but don't assume the first positive response means they got all the truth they need to know.
