  • Lesson 7: Learn to Walk in the Spirit: Galatians

    Key Verse

    This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

    —Galatians 5:16

    Key Verse Thought: Read today’s Key Verse. Use the following definitions to help you understand it a little better.

    • Walk means “the rule or manner by which one lives one’s life.”
    • Fulfilmeans“to execute fully a rule or law; to accomplish.”
    • The lust of the flesh means “the seat of carnal desires or appetites; proneness to sin; in opposition to the Holy Spirit or His influences.”

    In this lesson, we will learn how Paul taught to walk in the Spirit.

    Emphasis: In today’s lesson, we are to remember God’s Law was given to reveal sin, but that salvation is by faith in Jesus. Christians are to put to death the old nature along with the wrong things people are tempted to do (see Galatians 5:19-21). Instead, Christians are to walk in the Spirit, allowing the fruit of the Spirit to be revealed in them.

    Lesson Summary: In our last lesson, we studied the rest of Second Corinthians. We learned how Paul loved the Corinthian church and taught them, as his own children, to grow in Christ. When he recognized they were failing in a few areas in their Christian walk, he corrected them. He instructed them to not have friends (or marry anyone) who was not a Christian because there was no common fellowship. They were to cleanse themselves from all filthiness of the flesh. Paul also taught them that it was important to examine their own life to see if they were living a Christ-like life. If they were failing in any area, they were to correct those errors.

    In this lesson, we find out what Paul wrote to the churches at Galatia after he learned that false teachers had come in leading this church to become legalistic (placing themselves under the confines of the Law from which Christians, through Christ, had been set free). Because of their rejection of grace and the return to bondage of the law, this was the harshest of the letters Paul wrote. Paul wrote to correct the false teaching that had permeated this church. He told of when Jesus called upon him and he believed, separating himself for three years to learn the truth of the Gospel. He then proclaimed the truth to them, honestly and openly, not changing the message to please man. He declared the following: “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me” (Galatians 2:20).

    Paul stated again that salvation was by faith. He reminded them of Abraham who believed by faith, long before the law was written. He proceeded to teach them that because they had been set free from the Law, they were to live in the Spirit. If they would walk in the Spirit, they would not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. Paul again listed some sins: against the Spirit, against God, and against themselves. These were sins that they were to forsake. Instead, Christians are to obtain the fruit of the Spirit: “for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap” (Galatians 6:7).

  • Lesson 6: Growing in Christ: 2 Corinthians 6-13

    Key Verse

    Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

    —2 Corinthians 7:1

    Key Verse Thought: Read today’s Key Verse. After reading it, understand it better with the following definitions:

    • Cleanse means “to purify from the pollution and guilt of sin – in a spiritual sense.”
    • Filthiness means “anything that defiles (to make unclean or impure).”
    • Holiness means “exhortation to believers to perfect holiness – to live a virtuous life in the fear of God.”

    In this lesson, we will learn as Paul wrote to the Corinthians helping them understand that God wanted them to remove sin and live a life pleasing Him.

    Emphasis: In this lesson, we are to understand the importance of putting away sin, choosing Christian friends, and to grow more Christ-like in our lives. It is imperative that we examine our hearts and lives to be sure we are becoming more like Christ.

    Lesson Summary: After reading the letter of Romans as Paul taught the foundational doctrine (doctrine means “a principle or position laid down as true by an instructor or master”), and instruction for the church, we learned that there were faults in the church at Corinth. Paul then wrote two letters to the Corinthians convincing them of the faults and teaching them how to correct them. As we continue in this lesson, Paul gives further instruction as they were learning how to live and function as the body of Christ. These words were preserved through the years so that Christians today could continue to learn.

    Paul called them to work together, not forgetting they were saved by grace, and to grow in their Christian lives, producing fruit. He also taught them to understand the difference between one who lived a Christ-like life, and one who lived like the world. Christians are to recognize and separate from the unrighteous. God was their father, and they were his children, so Christians were to cleanse their lives from sin, becoming more like Christ.

    When the Corinthian church heard Paul’s words of correction, they received them, growing and abounding in their faith. Paul taught specific ways to walk in that Christian life: in their giving and in the warfare (“For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh” 2 Corinthians 10:3). He continued with a warning to not be deceived by false teaching, and to know that God would help them: for Paul learned “for when I am weak, then am I strong” (2 Corinthians 12:10). Finally, Paul encouraged them to consistently examine their own heart and lives – making sure that they were living a Christ-like life.

  • Lesson 5: Be Faithful to Christ: 2 Corinthians 1-5

    Key Verse

    For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

    —2 Corinthians 5:10

    Key Verse Thought: After reading the Key Verse, understand that each Christian will stand before God one day to give an accounting of how they lived their lives. We have already learned that God knows everything, even the things done in secret (see Ecclesiastes 12:14: “For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil”). In this lesson, we will learn as Paul taught that each Christian is to live a life so that others can see Jesus – for Christians are His ambassadors.

    Emphasis: Christians are faithfully to live a life pleasing to God understanding that each Christian will stand before God one day to give an accounting of his life – of things done that are good or bad. We must recognize that living a Christ-like life may not always be easy, but to remember that Christians represent Jesus as His ambassador here on this earth.

    Lesson Summary: Second Corinthians was a letter written to the church at Corinth, approximately a year after First Corinthians. Paul understood that the first letter had been received, and the people were adhering to the teachings, but he had further instructions for them.

    Paul encouraged the church to forgive one another’s faults, and receive the one who had been separated from them because of sin – for he had repented. They had to learn the importance of forgiveness – just as Jesus had taught. Christians were to understand that when they were faced with difficult situations, they were to live according to what they had been taught.

    Paul encouraged them to follow Christ – no matter how difficult it may be. Moreover, Paul led by example, living a life so that anyone could see Jesus by his words and actions. Paul wanted Christians to understand that God had given His Spirit to dwell within each Christian’s heart, and God’s Spirit would teach them the right thing to do in any situation. He continued by teaching Christians the importance of true (correct) teaching because the god of this world, Satan, blinds people because he doesn’t want them to recognize the Light of the world – Jesus.

    Paul taught that each Christian would stand before God, giving an account of how they lived their life, whether good or bad. He wanted them to understand that Christians represent Jesus here on this earth, and Christians are ambassadors for Christ.

  • Lesson 4: Stand Fast: 1 Corinthians 7-16

    Key Verse

    Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.

    —1 Corinthians 16:13

    Key Verse Thought: Read the Key Verse for this lesson. Understand the Key Verse with the following definitions:

    • Watch means the caution needed against the anxiety resulting from the fear of the loss of one’s salvation.
    • Stand fast means to stand firm in faith and duty; to be constant; to persevere; to remain steadfast in the faith and profession of Christ.
    • Quit you like men means to behave oneself with the courage and wisdom of a man, as opposed to a babe in Christ; to behave courageously.
    • Be strong means to be strong; to grow strong.

    As we learned in our last lesson, Paul wrote to the church at Corinth to correct wrong teaching. In this lesson, we will find he continued with the importance of not quitting but living a faithful Christian life: fearless, steadfast faith, behaving, courageous, and growing.

    Emphasis: We are to understand that Christians are the body of Christ, and to understand our responsibilities as a Christian – namely to become a strong, faithful Christian who lives a life pleasing to God. As Christians, we are to have godly, Christian friends who can encourage us to serve Jesus and His church faithfully.

    Lesson Summary: In our last lesson, we learned that Paul wrote to the church at Corinth because of the divisions and problems about which he had heard. After explaining Jesus was the only way to be saved, he continued by reminding them that they were not to live in the wisdom of man, but in God’s wisdom – for they were bought with a price.

    In this lesson, we continue with that letter to the church at Corinth. As Paul further instructed the people on their Christian responsibilities. He taught that it is important for the church to take care of the pastor – for his life is the ministry of the Gospel. However, each Christian is responsible for living a life that anyone who sees may understand that they belong to Jesus. Paul reminded them of the children of Israel in the wilderness, specifically what happened when they refused to obey God, and instead fulfilled their own lusts. The people died in the wilderness, never reaching the Promised Land.

    Paul also taught the importance of the Lord’s Supper, and that Christians are, collectively, the body of Christ. Christians were taught the importance of remembering why Jesus died and sharing that message with others. Paul taught many areas in which Christians are to remain faithful, living a life pleasing to God. He called upon the Corinthians to, “Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong” (1 Corinthians 16:13).

  • Lesson 3: Following Christ: 1 Corinthians 1 – 6

    Key Verse

    For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

    —1 Corinthians 6:20

    Key Verse Thought: Read today’s Key Verse. Each Christian was bought with a price. Do you remember what that price was? (Jesus’ death on the cross because of man’s sin.) Bought means “believers are bought for a price; once bought, the buyer has the right of possession. In the redemptive work of Jesus, the idea is that Christ, by offering Himself for us as due satisfaction, freed us from liability in paying the debt ourselves.” Glorify means“to render glory to God; recognize Him for who and what He is.” Once a Christian realizes what Jesus did – died for us – we are to recognize God for who He is and what He did for us. We show that by living a life pleasing to God – according to His Word, for we belong to Him.

    Emphasis: We are to understand that Christians are to remember the Gospel message; that Jesus saves. Christians are the Temple of God – bought with a price, which means we belong to Him and are to live a life pleasing to Him. We are to put away from us the people living in sin, but always be faithful to tell others about Jesus.

    Lesson Summary: First Corinthians was written to the church at Corinth that was founded on Paul’s second missionary journey. It was necessary because Paul received word that error had been taught and factions had appeared in the church, dividing the church body. The people seemed to have forgotten the importance of the message – Jesus died on the cross for man’s sin. The Christians were arguing, declaring they had been saved under the preaching of different men: some Paul, others Peter (Cephas), and some even said Apollos. They were focused on the messengers, not the message. Paul explained the simplicity of the message – he preached Jesus.

    The church at Corinth had not grown in maturity as they should have – for many still lived like the lost world. Paul taught them that they were the Temple of the Lord. They were not to defile that temple by continuing in sin. Paul explained the difference between God’s wisdom and the wisdom of man – for “the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God” (1 Corinthians 3:19). God’s people were to put away those who lived contrary to God’s Word.

    In this lesson, we will learn the following: “For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s” (1 Corinthians 6:20).

  • Lesson 2: How to Live Like You are Saved: Romans 7 – 16

    Key Verse

    And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

    —Romans 12:2

    Key Verse Thought: Read today’s Key Verse. Conformed means “to be fashioned alike; one is not to be molded by the external and fleeting manners or ways of this period of time, but to undergo a deep inner transformation that can only be brought by the Holy Spirit.” We are to understand that a Christian is not to look like, act like, or even sound like the world in which we live. Instead, Christians are to be completely changed – to be like Jesus. To be transformed from the inside out. The only way to do that is to read God’s Word, learning how Jesus wants us to live an acceptable life before him – and then living that life!

    Emphasis: It is important to understand what a Christian is to do once they give their heart and life to Jesus. The rest of the time spent on earth is to learn how to live a life better pleasing to God, to get along with one another, and encouraging one another. In addition, Christians are to be able to tell others about Jesus.

    Lesson Summary: In our last lesson, we learned that everyone is a sinner and needs Jesus to take away their sin. After learning how to be saved, a Christian must know how to live a life pleasing to Jesus.

    One important thing each new Christian must recognize is that they are to no longer live a life pleasing to the flesh – for they are a new creature; a spiritual one. These two natures are contrary one to another, so there will be a struggle. Paul understood this and explained this to the new Christians.

    We will look at some of the other things Paul taught to new Christians: Christians have been adopted into God’s family; God will never leave them; God is for them; they are to want others to be saved, and tell others about Jesus; how to live; how to get along with other Christians; the importance of obeying the laws of the land; how to “walk honestly;” and to encourage one another.

    As we end this lesson, we will read a warning Paul wrote: once a Christian learns how to live a life pleasing to Jesus and begins to live that new life, he is to recognize those who claim to know Jesus, yet do not live a right life. Christians are to avoid those people and stay away from them.

  • Lesson 1: How to Be Saved: Romans 1 – 6

    Key Verse

    As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

    —Romans 3:10

    Key Verse Thought: Read today’s key verse. The message in this verse is repeated throughout the Bible: “There is none righteous, no, not one.” Righteous means “just; in this verse it is stated that there is no man who in his behavior can fully meet the expectations of God in his life.” No one is “right” in God’s eyes.

    Emphasis: We are to recognize that all of man has sinned. No one is righteous before God; therefore, all are in need of Salvation. Salvation only comes by faith in Jesus – one must believe Jesus can take away sin, allowing one to stand righteous before God. Christians need to understand the importance of knowing how to tell others how to be saved.

    Lesson Summary: As we studied the book of Acts, we learned how the Gospel message spread. The spread began with persecution, but we learned that God set Paul apart to be a Light to the Gentile people. In order to accomplish this, Paul went on missionary journeys into the Gentile nations around. Through these journeys, not only were there many saved, but numerous churches were started. Paul wrote letters to these churches, encouraging and teaching them.

    In this lesson, as we begin the book of Romans, we learn that when Paul wrote this letter, he had not yet visited Rome – but he wanted to. (Remember that we learned in our last lesson that Paul eventually did make it to Rome – as a prisoner. In addition, that even as a prisoner, he was a vocal witness and many were saved.) This letter was written to a mostly Gentile audience, and Paul wanted them to understand that man is sinful, and they needed Jesus to save them from their sin. As we study the first six chapters of Romans, we will learn just what sin is, and how it is revealed. We will then look at just what it takes to be delivered from that sin – faith in Jesus. Paul gave them a mighty example of faith in the Old Testament, Abraham. Next, we will read of the obedience it takes to become a Christian, and the first steps required as a new Christian. Finally, we will learn the Roman Road. Not only is it something each sinner needs to understand how to become a Christian, but each Christian needs to know, and even memorize, these Scriptures in order to tell someone else how to be saved.

    In Romans, Paul quoted the Old Testament more than any other letter he wrote. We can understand that he wanted all to understand that the Gospel message in the Old Testament is the same as in the New Testament.

  • Lesson 13: Paul Shipwrecked: Acts 27 – 28

    Key Verse

    But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

    —Philippians 1:12

    Key Verse Thought: Read the Key Verse. Paul wrote these words in a letter to the church at Philippi. It is possible that Paul was in prison at the time he wrote this letter. He understood why he had been arrested, stood before rulers and kings, and even been held as a prisoner in Rome. He had been given opportunities to present the Gospel message of Jesus. While he was kept guard by a centurion, he was able to witness to him. With his time, he was able to write letters back to the churches, teaching them the things of God. In this lesson, we will learn that even while he was a prisoner, being transported, he was able to be a witness to people he never would have seen (i.e.: the people on the island where they were shipwrecked, and even the prisoners on the ship – both of which we will learn of today).

    Emphasis: Christians are to be content with the place God has placed us, recognizing an opportunity to further the Gospel message – just as Paul did even while he was a prisoner.

    Lesson Summary: After being heard by Felix, Festus, and King Agrippa, it was declared that Paul had done nothing worthy of death. However, no one would release him from prison. We understand that Paul had been held in prison well over two years. Because Paul had requested a hearing before Caesar, he was to be shipped to Rome.

    Paul was sent on a ship headed toward Rome. In this lesson, we will learn who else was with him on this journey, and the troubles that were encountered. When a storm arose, all aboard the ship were afraid – but God sent an angel to tell Paul that all would live, if they listened to the words of Paul. When the ship broke apart, all were saved because they obeyed the words of Paul.

    Once they made it to the island after the ship wrecked, the islanders greeted them hospitably. Nevertheless, when they saw Paul bitten by a viper, they assumed he would die because he was a prisoner. But Paul lived, and was able to heal many sick on the island.

    They resumed their journey, finally making it to Rome. Paul was kept imprisoned alone with a soldier. However, after three days, he called the chief Jews in Rome to meet with him. When they came, Paul told them the truth about Jesus, bringing them to the point of decision. We will learn if any of them believed in Jesus.

    Paul was kept in Rome for another two years. However, during those years, he was able to write many letters to the newly established churches.

  • Lesson 11: Paul Arrested: Acts 21:27 – 23

    Key Verse

    And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the doors were shut.

    —Acts 21:30

    Key Verse Thought: Read the Key Verse. Remember that in our last lesson, we learned that the people were opposed to Paul preaching Jesus, and they took him. We will learn in this lesson Paul’s response, and what he said to the people who rose up against him.

    Emphasis: To understand that people may not like us when we tell about Jesus (for they rejected Paul and his testimony). It is important that Christians not only remember when Jesus called upon our heart, but that we are willing to share that with others (our personal testimony).

    Lesson Summary: After learning of Paul’s third missionary journey in our last lesson, we read that he returned to Jerusalem bringing a report. He told the Christians how God had blessed their journey by the many Gentiles that had been reached for Jesus. The Jews rejoiced with him. However, when Paul went to the Temple, he was accosted by an uprising of the Asian Jews. We ended our last lesson with them laying hands upon Paul.

    As we begin this lesson, we will find that the entire city becomes involved in this uprising, and they drew Paul out of the Temple. As they were beating Paul, the chief captain heard and took Paul, then having him bound with chains. This chief captain spared Paul’s life. Paul was then given the opportunity to share his testimony with the people, including the chief captain. We will learn that a testimony is a personal sharing of when Jesus called upon one’s heart, the response to that call, and what God has done in one’s life since. Paul took time to share, briefly, of the sinner he once was. He then told of the specific call that Jesus extended to him, inviting Paul to become a believer in Jesus. Paul then told of his response to that call. He proceeded to shared with the people what Jesus wanted him to do with his life – go specifically to the Gentiles and preach Jesus to them. After learning of Paul’s personal testimony, we are going to learn that it is important for each Christian to be able to give his/her own personal testimony of Jesus’ call, and each response. If you are teaching this lesson to a group, it would be a great encouragement to your students if you were to share with them your personal testimony at a specific place in this lesson. You will then be encouraged to challenge them to come prepared (the next time you meet together to study God’s Word), to share their own personal testimony of Jesus’ call to them.

    After Paul gave his testimony, the people still rejected him. Nevertheless, God encouraged Paul. Even when there was a plot against Paul, his life was spared again. The chief captain then sent Paul to the governor, Felix, so his case could be heard.

  • Lesson 10: Paul’s Third Missionary Journey: Acts 18:23 – 21:26

    Key Verse

    20. And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, 21. Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

    —Acts 20:20-21

    Key Verse Thought: Read today’s Key Verses. Paul is the one speaking in these verses. He was telling the people that he had led by example – for in every aspect of his life, he served Jesus, ministering to others (i.e.: he preached Jesus so others could be saved; he went from house to house telling all of Jesus, Jew and Gentile; he encouraged other believers to live a Christ-like life). In this lesson, we will learn more of Paul’s life.

    Emphasis: We are faithfully to tell others about Jesus, understanding God will give us friends to help us. But more than that, we are especially to live a life that is pleasing to Jesus so that other Christians can be encouraged to live correctly by our example.

    Lesson Summary: As we learned of Paul’s second missionary journey in our last lesson, we found that when Paul obeyed God’s direction for his life, God blessed his journey. Not only were many saved, but also Paul gained friends and fellow laborers to help spread the Gospel message. This week we begin with two of those friends.

    Paul visited some of the newly established churches, and he left Aquila and Priscilla in Ephesus. While they were there, they heard a man named Apollos teach the repentance of John the Baptist. Aquila and Priscilla realized that Apollos had never heard of Jesus, the Promised One John came to reveal, so they told him about Jesus. Apollos believed, and became another helper who preached Jesus to others.

    When Paul went to Troas where he met up with some fellow laborers that he had sent ahead, he preached a sermon that lasted well into the night. Around midnight, Eutychus fell asleep in a third floor window and fell to his death. Paul raised him from the dead, they ate, and he continued talking until morning.

    As we continue reading about Paul’s third missionary journey, we find that Luke, the writer of Acts (as well as the gospel of Luke) again joined with Paul and the other helpers. When they reached Miletus, Paul called for the elders of the church in Ephesus to come to him. Paul first warned them of grievous wolves that would come in to try to destroy the new church, and then encouraged these established Christians to help the weaker. Paul reminded them that he had taught them by example – for Paul had lived his life serving Jesus by teaching others about Jesus and ministering to them.

    Paul met Agabus at Philip’s house who foretold that Paul would be bound in Jerusalem. Nevertheless, Paul continued his journey to Jerusalem, where he gave a report of his missionary journey, and heard of the Jews saved.
