CHRISTIAN EDUCATION

Christian Education Spring  2020-2021  Prophets Faithful to Gods Covenant  Unit 2 – Prophets of Restoration
They were a combination of preacher, whistleblower, and counselor—they were the prophets of the Old Testament era. They warned people who had turned away from the Lord; and they encouraged the faithful to remain faithful. From time to time, they fortified their calls by foretelling the future intent and plans of the sovereign God.

Words of Restoration
Lessons of Unit 2 focus on restoration and hope. These begin with the Easter Sunday lesson that focuses on the connection between Isaiah’s fourth Servant Song and the account of Jesus’ resurrection in Luke 24.
The sacrifice of Christ on the cross makes possible forgiveness of sins and removes our estrangement from the Father. That estrangement is powerfully illustrated by the prophet Jeremiah in Lamentations 5 (lesson 8). Backsliders, then as now, often must take difficult and decisive action to remove obstacles to a restored relationship with God. But that must be done in order to experience God’s blessings. The texts studied in lessons 6 and 7 narrate such decisive action on the part of the post-exilic figures Ezra and Nehemiah.

Lesson 5  The Suffering Servant   Isaiah 53:4–11a
The connection between Isaiah’s fourth Servant Song and the account of Jesus’ resurrection in Luke 24.

Lesson 6  The Faith-in-Action Preacher   Ezra 10:1–12
Lessons 6 and 7 narrate such decisive action on the part of the post-exilic figures Ezra and Nehemiah.
Lesson 7  The Restoring Builder   Nehemiah 2:11–20

Lesson 8  The Nation’s Plea   Lamentations 5
The sacrifice of Christ on the cross makes possible forgiveness of sins and removes our estrangement from the Father. That estrangement is powerfully illustrated by the prophet Jeremiah in Lamentations 5

About This Recording

PRAYER
Father God, hallowed be Thy Name. As I begin this approach to the study of Your Word I pray that I will read and hear with an expectant mind and heart. Holy Spirit because I cannot understand the Word by myself, I ask that You guide me through this journey with a steady focus on what You would have me to receive. My desire is to know more about You, Father God, and to draw closer to You. Do not leave me in the dark I pray, but light my way by Your Spirit.
As You did through Jesus, I ask You to do the same for me. Give me the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of You. Let the eyes of my understanding be enlightened, that I may know what is the hope of Your calling and what is the riches of the glory of Your inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of Your power to those of us who believe.
Open my understanding, Lord Jesus and purge me through Your Word, in the matchless Name of Jesus Christ, AMEN!
