Key Verse<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed <\/strong>is<\/strong><\/em> not grievous, but for you <\/strong>it is<\/strong><\/em> safe.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014Philippians 3:1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Verse Thought: <\/strong>Read today\u2019s key verse. In this lesson, we will\nremember many people we have studied before \u2013 ones we cannot forget!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emphasis: <\/strong>We are to never tire of remembering God\u2019s people, and\nwhat He did for them (and does for us today)! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lesson Summary: <\/strong>It is important, upon occasion, to take a minute\nand stop to remember.  In this lesson, as\nwe begin the book of 1 Chronicles, we can see it begins with the genealogy from\nAdam \u2013 which is basically a time of remembering back to what God had done.\nOftentimes we find the genealogies mundane and boring. As we go through the\nfirst chapter of 1 Chronicles, try to see the genealogy from a different\nperspective. It can be fascinating if you are able to recognize names, which in\nturn causes a remembering of great events in history. Be encouraged to look at\ngenealogies from this perspective. Now that we have studied many great men and\nwomen in history, we should be able to read through these genealogies with much\nfascination.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One important reason that\nthe books of the Chronicles were kept was to accurately record the lineage of\nthe Israelites \u2013 to reveal to mankind with great assurance that Jesus was the\nrightful heir to the throne of David.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our last quarter, we\nfocused on the kings of Israel,\nthe Northern Kingdom. As we continue our study, we will\nfocus on the kings of Judah, the Southern Kingdom. In these lessons, we will\nlook at the books of 1 Kings and 2 Kings along with the additional information\nabout events and people that was not recorded in the records of the kings but\nin the books of 1 Chronicles and 2 Chronicles. These bits of information will\nbe helpful in better understanding some events. The books of the Chronicles\nhelp us consider the spiritual significance of these events. First Chronicles\nbegins with Adam and brings us to the kings of Judah.\nEspecially notice the same struggle mankind has fought since the beginning of\ntime: man\u2019s choice. The choice is whether to obey God, or to choose not to obey\nGod. The choice one makes determines one\u2019s\nstanding with God. See an example of man\u2019s disobedience and obedience as\nrecorded in First Chronicles:       <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Disobedience brought\ndefeat and destruction: \u201c13. So Saul died for his\ntransgression which he committed against the LORD, even<\/em> against the word\nof the LORD, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel<\/em> of one\nthat had<\/em> a familiar spirit, to enquire of it<\/em>; 14. And enquired not of the LORD: therefore he slew him, and\nturned the kingdom unto David the son of Jesse\u201d (1 Chronicles 10:13-14). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Obedience brought peace\nand God\u2019s blessing: \u201c12. And they entered into a\ncovenant to seek the LORD God of their fathers with all their heart and with\nall their soul; 13. That whosoever would not\nseek the LORD God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether\nman or woman. 14. And they sware unto the LORD\nwith a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets. 15. And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their\nheart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and\nthe LORD gave them rest round about\u201d (1 Chronicles 15:12-15).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we have learned and will continue to discover, faith in God, repentance, and seeking God with the whole heart (obedience) \u2013 not necessarily one\u2019s genealogy \u2013 will determine one\u2019s standing with God. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
