Sunday School Lessons & Plans on “The Bible”

Bible Reading:
Use any Bible story that illustrates how the Bible is to be used as an instruction book to show how Christians ought to live their lives.

Sunday School Lessons Discussion 1: 
How important is the Bible in the life of a Christian?  Why is it important?  Who wrote the Bible?  What language was it originally written in?

Sunday School Lessons Activity 1:
Some of the lessons in the Bible are written as parables.  Tell your own parable that would be understood by your peers, and that teaches them that they should love their neighbor.

Sunday School Lessons Discussion 2:
The Bible is an instruction book, a map, a way of teaching how we, as Christians ought to live our lives according to the will of God.  Think about the people you know, does it show from how they act that they have read the book of instructions?  Have you read it?  Would you start to use something new, such as a digital camera without reading the instruction book?  Learning to walk God’s path is far more important than that, and yet many people think that reading the instruction guide is unnecessary.  Just like a user guide for equipment in your home, when things go wrong in your life, the Bible will have an answer as to how you should deal with it – but if you don’t read the Bible, how will you know where to find this?

Sunday School Lessons Activity 2:
Supply each student with a pen and paper.  Ask them to write “The Bible – A User Guide” at the top of the page, and then instruct them to write step by step instructions as to how someone who isn’t familiar with the Bible should start to use it as a way of learning how to live as God commands.
