My first Sunday School Lesson

I don't teach Sunday School but if I did I would not get my "lesson" out of one of those Sunday School Quarterlies they sell to the easily duped "wanna be Christians". People too lazy to read and study for themselves, people that want the "Cliff Notes", "just tell us the good stuff", micro message seeking, instant gratification, pay my tithe and leave me the hell alone "Christians".

I would teach from my heart and experiences. I would tell them about the mid-wives in Egypt that refused to kill the male Hebrew boy babies. They were afraid of the Pharaoh but they FEARED GOD. (Exodus 1:14-17) They knew GOD was sending a special child to deliver them from bondage. They refused to be a part of the devil's sick plan to kill their saviour.

I would tell my class that too many of our mothers and mid-wives have lost their fear and have become accursed. They have lost their natural affection and are harming our children by the millions. I would tell them about this mother that GOD sent child after child after child.

This poor foolish woman was froward ( froh-werd) - wilfully contrary, not easily managed, intractable. This woman was incorrigible. The more her father tried to reach and teach her the more she rebelled. Brilliant, she used all of her GOD given talent to serve the devil. As a child it was fun, but as she grew each deed grew worse and worse. She waxed worse and worse just like the Bible said she would. Lying became automatic, her second nature, inflicting fear was her habit. This woman grew into a horrid monster that did far more evil than she ever did good. Honored in some circles for her "bad" she reigned supreme. Honored in other circles she was loved and praised for her "good". This poor woman has spent eighty-five long years trying to keep these worlds apart. These "worlds" are about to collide.

I would teach my class the meaning of repentance, repentance means to turn away from. Turn away from permanently, not refrain from and return to every time you feel slighted, inferior, hurt, over looked or jealous.

I would teach my class that GOD is a resource we all have, anything we want all we have to do is ask.

I would tell that woman that GOD sent her a child like Moses and she did everything in her power to destroy that child. But through the miraculous power of the LORD Jesus Christ that child grew strong and whole without a mother's love.

GOD understands that you could not give what you did not have. GOD forgives you, you have to forgive yourself. You have to quit lying. Step out on the wings of faith and claim your victory in Christ.

I would make sure that everyone in my class knew that;"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; but fools despise wisdom and instruction." (Proverbs 1:7)

That would be my whole lesson, my first Sunday School lesson.

Much Love, Peace and Happiness,
