Term 2 – Week 03
Big Idea – Followers of Jesus remember God takes our anger really seriously. (It has no place in the Kingdom of God.)
Matthew 5:9,21-26
Outcomes
- To know that God takes anger really seriously, because it shows contempt towards God in the heart.
- To understand that living God’s way involves controlling our anger, making peace with those we have wronged.
Implications
- Belief – We all know murder is wrong and is a capital offense. But do we really take anger just as seriously?
- Behaviour – Identify ways in which our anger can be manifested in our speech and actions. Practically what can we do to seek reconciliation with people we have wronged or made upset. Is this hard to do?
Memory Verse
Matthew 22:37- 40 (NIrV)
Jesus replied, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. Love him with all your mind.’ This is the first and most important commandment. And the second is like it. ‘Love your neighbour as you love yourself.’ Everything that is written in the Law and the Prophets is based on these two commandments.”
