Lesson Title: JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST

Printed Text: GALATIANS 2:15-21

Key Verse: Galatians 2:19-20 (NIV)
For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God. I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

Source: Townsend Press Sunday School Commentary 2011

UNIFYING LESSON PRINCIPLE:
Having faith in someone else is the greatest gift that one can give to another. Why is faith greater than any other gift? Paul stated that Jesus died in vain if we place our faith in anything other than Him.

CONCLUDING REFLECTION:
Paul suggests that what distinguished Christians from other people were not external markings, but rather our common interest and commitment to charity and advocacy on behalf of the poor. The church too often is guilty of neglecting its singular mandate: to love and do justice. Sometimes our theological disputes serve to help us avoid the real work of the ministry. In the worst cases, the only casualties of our theological wars are those people who have a genuine desire to serve.

The letter to the Galatians challenges the church to face its in-house disputes. Paul challenged us to extend welcome and hospitality to all who express faith in Christ Jesus.

Printed Text: EXODUS 15:1-3, 19, 22-26

Key Verse: Exodus 15:19 (NIV)
When Pharaoh’s horses, chariots and horsemen went into the sea, the Lord brought the waters of the sea back over them, but the Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground.

Source: Townsend Press Sunday School Commentary 2011

UNIFYING LESSON PRINCIPLE:
People will often follow a trusted leader even into dangerous places. What inspires such trust? Because Moses had faith in God, the Israelites follow him into the Red Sea, where God saved them from the Egyptians and from drowning.

CONCLUDING REFLECTION:</strong>
God has not left us. We who identify with Christ have a steadfast anchor of the soul in a seemingly hopeless and war-devastated world. We still have hope in a world high on drugs like crystal methamphetamine, cocaine, and heroin. We still have hope, though storms rage in our lives and floodwaters overflow their banks. We still have hope. We still have hope, even when fathers are estranged from their children and mothers turn deaf ears. We still have hope in the possibility for renewed relationships between generations. We still have hope.

Moses and the children of Israel are historic witnesses that the God of our weary years, and the God of our silent tears, has not failed us.
