Elevate Sunday Follow Up - Lesson 36
Dear
Parents,
Hello again! Can you believe we are 36
weeks into our big-picture look at the story of the Bible? This week’s lesson
was an amazing time of really looking into the depth and meaning of the Last
Supper.
This week, the
lesson was about the last supper Jesus ate with His disciples. It focused on
helping students understand what happened during this time and what it means to
us. The Passover feast happened annually,
and was an important celebration to the Jewish people. It symbolized
their freedom from slavery and the reality that the angel of death literally
passed over their homes. In this meal,
Jesus helped His disciples understand that what He was about to do would atone
for their sins and the sin of all mankind. His death and resurrection would
bring freedom from sin and death forever.
We
looked at the following Scripture passages:
·
Luke 22:7-23
·
1
John 2:1-2
You’ll enjoy reading these powerful passages that show us the power of
Jesus’ atonement for our sin.
Next Steps . . .
During the week, set aside
a few moments to discuss these questions with your teenager:
• You talked a lot about the idea of atonement this
week. What does this mean to you personally?
•
Why do you think
Jesus used the Passover celebration to talk to His disciples about what He was
going to do?
•
If you were in
that room for the Last Supper with Jesus, how would you have responded?
•
How does the
power of Jesus taking our sins affect you? (Tell your story of how this affects
you.)
