Meaningful Conversation Starters
- What does rebellion mean?
- What does sin mean?
- In what ways do we rebel against God?
Message
We are continuing in our unit called The Far Greater Story. We are teaching the kids the components of a biblical worldview and how it shapes our values, decisions, and behaviors. This week we are talking about Rebellion and how every human being has fallen short of God’s standard for goodness.
We use the language of “rebellion” because we understand that we, too, are sinful humans. Whether we like to admit it or not, we rebel against God and His standards of love and goodness every day. Sometimes it is unintentional, other times it is outright disobedience.
Verse
"For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God's glorious standard."~Romans 3:23 (NLT)
Knowing that we have all sinned puts us on a level playing field with one another. No one is better than the person next to them. Proper understanding of our nature leads us to humility and a recognition that, without a perfect, sinless Savior, we are all destined for an eternity separated from our good, holy Father in heaven.
