161 OUR NEXT JOURNEY WITH JESUS… — Unit Six — JESUS PROMISES PROMISES, PROMISES, PROMISES... “Do you swear to tell one greater, He swore by Himself” (Heb 6:13). the truth, the whole In other words, God bases every promise on His truth, and nothing own character. He holds Himself accountable! but the truth, so help If He ever broke a promise, He would stop being you God?” God! Aren’t you thankful for a verse like Numbers 23:19? “God is not a man, that He What picture forms in your mind as you hear should lie, or a son of man, that He should those words? Probably a court proceeding on change His mind. Does He speak and not act? some TV show or movie, right? Does He promise and not fulfill?” But notice the hands of the person being sworn In this next unit, we will look at four promises in to testify. The right hand is raised. And the that Jesus made. We can be absolutely con- other one? On a Bible. Why? fident that they either have come to pass or will The idea is this: when a person swears on a Bible, come to pass, because “all of God’s promises that person is holding themselves accountable have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding to Someone who is much greater than they are ‘Yes!’” (2 Cor 1:20). The promise to rise from — namely, God! The person is meant to realize the dead? Check! The promise to send the Holy that, if they lie before God, HE will deal with Spirit to live in His people? Check! The promise them! to use His people to spread His good news So when God makes a promise, who does He around the world? That’s happening right now! swear by? There is no one greater than God. So The promise to come again and take His chil- does He base His promises on…Himself? dren Home to Heaven? He’s coming back very Exactly! The Bible even says this: “When God soon! made a promise to Abraham [to bless him and As you journey with Jesus through this final his descendants], because He could swear by no unit, allow these lessons to bolster your faith in the God who always keeps His promises: “He who promised is faithful” (Heb 10:23).

For the ACTIVITY: Copy and cut the “Following Historical Facts” page into individual slips of paper to be distributed; prepare SIX signs with the following statements: Jesus didn’t actually die. / Jesus’ body was never really buried. / The tomb wasn’t really empty. / The resurrection = myth / Only Jesus’ followers claimed to have seen Jesus. / Jesus actually AROSE! For the “GROUP CHAT” below, write the corresponding message on the back of each sign. OUR BEARINGS: “PASTE WITH HASTE” MOVING ON: THE JOURNEY BEGINS Divide into teams.

Now, as for the IS risen! missing glue, that was intentional!” CAMPING OUT ON TRUTH Read Matthew 28:1-8. Wow! What do you think those women were feeling at that moment? [Field responses.] Can I ask you: Do YOU believe Jesus actually rose from the dead? Many laugh at the idea of a dead man “spontaneously” coming back to life. For our activity, I want you to honestly think about this question: DID JESUS REALLY RISE? You really need to settle this question in your heart — because this is the glue that makes all Christianity “stick” together. Historians have come up with SIX main possible ex- planations — or theories — for the empty tomb. [POST SIGNS with the SIX THEORIES.] Today, I’ll let you give the verdict. With a partner, you’ll examine some pieces of evidence which even non- Christians agree are accurate historical facts. Those pieces of evidence are written on these papers.

Jesus didn’t really die. their “facts”, draw a line from the statements below to the theories which they debunk. 2. Jesus’ body was never Actually buried. Matthew 27:66 — Even Pilate took every precaution to prevent the removal of the body. 3. The tomb wasn’t 1 Corinthians 15:3-6 — Over 500 eyewitnesses claimed to have seen Jesus alive! Actually empty. Acts 9:1 — Saul of Tarsus was a terrorist who killed Christians. But he himself later became a Christian, 4. The resurrection was and even went around telling others about Jesus! What happened? He met the risen Christ. Just a myth. Matthew 27:57-60 — The owner of the tomb buried Jesus in his own tomb. 5. The only witnesses were Jesus’ followers. HISTORICAL FACT — Roman soldiers knew when someone was dead. They knew Jesus had died (see John ONLY ONE 19:31-33). CONCLUSION... Matthew 27:57-60 — The owner of the tomb could have dispelled the “Wrong Tomb Theory”. 6. John 19:31-33 — Jesus’ legs were not broken because He was already dead. LOGICAL FACT — If the body were still in the tomb, the enemies could show it and prove that Jesus had not risen. Matthew 27:61 — Women witnessed Jesus’ burial. MEDICAL EXPERTS — Medical experts today say that Jesus actually died (see John 19:33,34). 1 Corinthians 15:3-6 — We have historical documents, written not long after Christ's death, stating that eyewitnesses saw the risen Christ. Matthew 27:65 — Breaking a Roman “seal” would result in execution. Jesus' disciples were already afraid of being put to death. 1 Corinthians 15:7 / Matthew 13:55 — Before Jesus died, His half-siblings thought He was crazy. Later, they all believed that Jesus rose from the dead. What changed their minds? They saw the risen Christ for themselves! Matthew 28:12-15 — The authorities had to bribe the soldiers because they knew the tomb was empty!

For Activity: Get scissors and glue sticks for each student (or for pairs to share); candy prizes and colored markers/pencils for activity page; print copies of “5 Fingers of Faith” for each student. OUR BEARINGS: “GUESS MY AGE!” marks on the rings where the tree continued to grow overtop the damage. “Guess My Age!” Distribute small pieces of paper to each student.

But do this with gentleness and respect”(1 Pet 3:15). How to use this object lesson: Holding up your hand, say,“It might look like there’s nothing in my hand. But, actually, it's holding the most important message we can ever hear! Want to know what it is?” Out of curiosity, many will say“Yes!” YOUR TASK: 1. Read the verses carefully. It is recommended that you memorize these verses. Our words are just...words. But God’s Word is ultra-powerful and can actually get into the hearts of people (see Heb 4:12). 2. Have one partner hold up one finger at a time (as shown below) while the other explains the points. Switch roles. If time allows, do it again – selecting numbers in random order. For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Cor 15:3-4). The hand of God provides the gift. The hand of Faith receives it. The hand of love will pass it on so others will believe it. — BC

If this is not possible, post the one provided on the board, and have the students gather together at the front of the classroom. You may also want a timer. FOR ACTIVITY: The five crown handouts (one for each group), coloring utensils; masking tape to post the crowns on the board. OUR BEARINGS: “PICK A NUMBER!” given to Jesus’ disciples as He ascended back into Heaven. ASK: Does anyone know what that message I need a volunteer to play a game with me called “Pick was?

It also tells us this: as the day for SAY: Please tell me the columns your number is in. Jesus’ return gets closer, non-Christians will call this [Teacher: To get the answer, add up the numbers at the idea “crazy talk”. They would put it on the same level top of those columns.

Well, God’s track record for telling ASK: Does anyone think they can beat MY time? future events is 100%. Sword Drill: ISAIAH 46:9,10. TRANSITION: 100% TRACK RECORD We can be totally confident when God says Jesus is coming again — because what God says always comes SAY: I think it’s fair to say that you weren’t overly con- to pass. For example: Does anyone remember how fident that [student] could correctly guess my number. many prophecies Jesus fulfilled when He came to Earth But you seemed to think that I could do it. the first time? [Over 300 — a statistical impossibilty far beyond mere coincidence] What were some of the Why were you so confident that I could do it? [Field prophecies He fulfilled?

READ THIS PASSAGE. 1 PETER 5:1-4 (NAME OF CROWN) Also called “The Shepherd’s Crown”, this crown will be rewarded to Christians who faithfully lead and encourage others in their personal walk with the Lord. THINK OF A REAL-LIFE EXAMPLE THAT WOULD QUALIFY FOR THIS CROWN: 185
186
READ THIS PASSAGE. 1 CORIN- THIANS (NAME OF CROWN) 9:24-27 Paul uses the example of an athlete training for the Olympics to teach about this crown. With such a goal in mind, an athlete will pursue good things and stay away from bad things. This crown, then, goes to Christians who, in obedience to God’s Word and in dependence on God’s Spirit, live disciplined lives, pursuing holiness and avoiding sin at any cost. THINK OF A REAL-LIFE EXAMPLE THAT WOULD QUALIFY FOR THIS CROWN: 187
188
READ THIS PASSAGE. 1 THESS- ALONIANS (NAME OF CROWN) 2:13, 17-20 Paul wrote this to Christians whom HE had introduced to Jesus through the gospel. So this crown will be given to Christians who faithfully share the good news of God’s salvation with people who are still lost. THINK OF A REAL-LIFE EXAMPLE THAT WOULD QUALIFY FOR THIS CROWN: 189
190
READ THIS PASSAGE. JAMES 1:2-4, 12 (NAME OF CROWN) James is writing to Christians who are suffering terribly because of their loyalty to Jesus. What helps them get through the tough times? Their love for Jesus! This crown is promised to those who willingly suffer for Jesus’ sake because they love Him. THINK OF A REAL-LIFE EXAMPLE THAT WOULD QUALIFY FOR THIS CROWN: 191
192
READ THIS PASSAGE. 2 TIMOTHY (NAME OF CROWN) 4:7-8 These are some of Paul's last words before he was executed! He wants to encourage the Christians he would leave behind to live holy (“righteous”) lives. Why? So that we might bring joy to Jesus’ heart when He returns and finds us faithful to Him! THINK OF A REAL-LIFE EXAMPLE THAT WOULD QUALIFY FOR THIS CROWN: 193
194 — APPENDIX #1 — YEAR 2 — SUMMATIVE TASK: JESUS IN REVIEW — Putting It All Together OBJECTIVE: To review the content covered in this program. PREPARE: To Do — To save on class time, prepare in advance enough sets of Jesus on Mission Timeline Cards for partners; have “Reflection Sheets” ready for each student; prepare the video titled “Jesus On Mission” (see link below). IMPORTANT: If you have posted the Timeline Cards throughout the semester, remove them before this class. WELCOME & OVERVIEW TEACHER NOTES: 1. Welcome the class and inform them that you have a few activities you hope will “lock” into their minds and hearts some of the lessons learned this year in Jesus On Mission. 2. Explain the general format of your final class: a) Timeline Challenge (20 minutes) b) Self-Reflection (10 minutes) c) If time and equipment allow for it, watch a video that ties in key concepts of Year One and Year Two, providing one final gospel appeal. PART ONE: TIMELINE CHALLENGE (20 mins) 1. Pair up students, and distribute a set of cards to each set of students. 2. Explain what the students are to do — a) Cut out the Unit Banners, Description Cards, and Timeline Pictures. b) Match the Timeline Pictures and Description Cards, placing them under the appropriate Unit Banners. c) After about 15 minutes, compare your Timeline with your teacher’s (during Whole Group time). PART TWO: SELF-REFLECTION (10 mins) To watch this video, go to: https://youtu.be/mbD7pAfDmAM After about 15 minutes, distribute the “Reflection Sheets”. Invite the students to spend about 10 to 15 minutes writing about three memorable moments from Jesus On Mission. OPTIONAL: “JESUS ON MISSION” (Video, 19 mins) If you have time, equipment, and interest (and if you’ve not yet shown this), present the video titled “JESUS ON MISSION”. This provides a final gospel appeal for your students, tying in themes from God’s Rescue Mission and Jesus On Mission.
