TALK ABOUT IT
Sunday, September 8th
JESUS IS OUR PERFECT KING: Colossians 1
Talk About it:
JESUS IS OUR PERFECT KING: Colossians 1
Talk About it:
- What was your favorite part of the video we just watched?
- Have you learned anything about God that surprises you?
- Do you ever act like you’re ‘king’? Do you ever try to be in charge and do things your way? How? Answers will vary. Explain that as sinners we all try to be “king” of our lives. Tell kids that as sinners we choose to put ourselves first and want to live to please ourselves. Remind kids that only Jesus is King and that when we trust in Him, we choose to follow Him as King and turn away from sin.
- What did Jesus do to bring us back to God? Tell kids that God sent Jesus to rescue us from sin. Explain that Jesus lived a perfect life in our place, died on the cross for our sin, and rose again. Remind kids that Jesus’ blood washes away our sin.
- How can we make Jesus King of our lives? Discuss how Jesus is always the King of kings but that we don’t always accept that He is. Tell kids that we have a choice of whether or not we will bow to King Jesus and accept Him as our Savior. Help kids understand that when we confess our sins, ask Jesus for forgiveness, and trust in Him, we are saved and given the gift of eternal life. Encourage kids to remember that when Jesus becomes King of our lives, we desire to obey Him because He has shown His love toward us.
Elementary Family Actions:
Form a circle of chairs equal to the number of your family. Designate one chair as a throne by draping a blanket on it or taping a sign to it that reads throne. Play some music and start to walk around the circle of chairs. When the music stops you must sit in the chair you are standing in front of. Whoever sits on the “throne,” must either say the big picture answer or give an example of how Jesus is our perfect King. For example you may say, “Jesus reigns forever” “Jesus never sinned” “Jesus created all things” etc. Consider varying the volume of the music to lead kids to slow down or speed up. Play the music loud to speed kids up or more quietly to slow kids down.
We have learned that Jesus perfectly rules over the universe as the King of kings. He is the King God promised would save us from our sins and give us eternal life.
