Hi guys and girls , I have closely tied my lesson with the book. Hope it’s good enough. I

usually teach my sec2s in a quiet time style where they read each section and then later

discuss about various issues related to the passage before moving on. This allows them to

practice their quiet time habit as well as teach them how it should be done on their own

everyday at home.

Ask the kids to read the first section about God’s wrath. Ask the kids to share some

examples of God’s wrath in our present time..Sometimes it is through God’s wrath that we

see how powerful he is. (e.g. Japan tsunami, Earthquakes) But do be reminded that God’s

grace is pure and whatever that is happening around the world now has a purpose.

Read Psalms 78:24-32 abd Collosians 3:5-6 and discuss about the various cases.

Deuteronomy 28:15-68 also gives us an eye opener of how God punishes us if we are

disobedient/sin against him.

Read the second section(after the 2qns)

Impt thing to take note of is that God is not angry with us (we are his creation and God

definitely loves us). It is the sin in us that God is angry about. God cannot stand sin. Even

God turned his face from Jesus where he was crucified on the cross bearing all our sin and

shame.

Read Roman 1:18-20 and answer the question.

Read the whole section as it explains the different types of ppl in the world. Answer the

questions at the same time. At the end of it, ask the kids to choose which type they belong

to and why they think so.

Impt note is that we must fully understand that just doing good deeds won’t reserve us a

place in heaven. Our relationship with God also plays a part too.

Do qn 6.

Read the whole section. Basically, Lucado is trying tell us that we are afterall humans and

we are born with sin and we have definitely failed miserably in leading Christ-like lives.

We must also warn ourselves and also the fellow sec2s that we are living in a world full of

temptations and we will face more of it as we grow older and attain more freedom. Imagine

if we didn’t have God in our lives, there will not be the Holy Spirit in us to tell us right from

wrong and when we meet God after we die and see the flashback of the time we spend on

Earth, it’s over..

Do Qn 7. – Should be quite straight forward.

Read the whole section. In summary, God’s grace is always there for us. It is through sin

that we can experience God’s grace with a much deeper understanding. In this way, we are

able to have a closer relationship with Him. If we ever sin, we can be certain that there is a

gracious God that is always ready to forgive.

Note : We must not think in such a way where we make use of God’s grace to do wrong.

God has every right to take back his grace and show his wrath. (Do not put God to the test)

Romans 6:23 states that ‘For the wages of sin is death………’ This clearly shows that when

one commits a sin, the consequence/penalty is death. However the reason why we are still

alive and well is because of how limitless God’s grace is that he let his only Son die on the

cross for all our sins.

Do qn 8 and 9.
