背经节(12分钟)

“因为我是大君王，我的名在列国中是可畏的；这是万军之耶和华说的。”  -玛拉基书 1:14b

将经节写在白板上。请孩子们大声念出这节经文。告诉他们，神爱我们，不希望我们害怕祂，而是尊重和荣耀祂。让孩子们再读一遍，用“当受尊重”这个词代替“可畏”这个词。然后，再一起读一遍，将“可畏”一词替换为“当受尊崇”。

圣经故事与讨论(15分钟)

介绍：

今天，我们来学习敬畏神，但不是你所以为的害怕的方式。在你才到时，你写下了当你读某些词时所想到的第一样东西。我希望每个人都分享当你读到敬畏这个词时所想到的东西。（在白板上写下每个孩子对敬畏这个词的反应。可能他们的大部分反应都是帕查德式畏惧。）

在英文中，恐惧只有一个词来表达。在希伯来语（旧约的书写语）中，有两个词表示恐惧，帕查德和耶尔。这两个词在圣经中都有使用，但含意却大不相同。

帕查德- 恐惧

可怕，恐怖，被吓到

耶尔 - 敬畏

敬畏，尊重，承认神的能力和地位，给神当得的尊重。

读 诗篇 22:23

问题讨论：

1. 这节经文指的是哪种恐惧？（耶尔式的恐惧。）

2. 这首诗吩咐雅各的后裔该向神作什么？（赞美祂，尊崇祂，尊重祂。）

下一节讲的是另一种恐惧。扫罗王非常嫉妒大卫，开始在各处追杀他。扫罗王想伤害大卫和他的部下。

读 撒母耳记上 23:15-18

问题讨论：

1. 这节经文指的是哪种恐惧？（帕查德式的恐惧。）

2. 你会把手伸进火里吗？（不会，当然不会。解释：人们不把手伸进火里的原因是因为他们害怕火。我们对火的规则或界限会有尊重或敬畏。与神在一起，也一样；我们知道祂的命令，我们应当尊重并遵守它们。）

课堂活动(10分钟)

活动 | 敬畏神 

备选活动(10分钟)

实物短讲 | 哪一种怕？

应用(5分钟)

问题讨论：

1. 你对今天要背的那节经节的理解是否因这节课而有所改变？

2. 要来的一周，你会如何敬畏神？

下节课

下周再来，我们将了解一位从不犯错的法官！

ATTRIBUTES OF GOD

LESSON 5: GOD IS TO BE FEARED 

After completing this Sunday school lesson, the children will better understand the use of the word fear in the Bible as it relates to respecting and honoring God. God doesn't want us to be terrified of Him, but we should respect and honor Him.

by Theresa Sykes

TOPICS

Fearing God, Honoring God, Knowing God, Respect

AS KIDS ARRIVE (10 minutes)

Before class, print and cutout the question slips. Each child in class will get one slip.

The link to Question Slips:

As the children arrive, have them complete the question slips. Explain that their answers will be used later in class.

MEMORY WORK (12 minutes)

"‘For I am a great king,’ says the LORD Almighty, ‘and my name is to be feared among the nations.’" Malachi 1:14b NIV 

Write the memory verse on the whiteboard. Have the children say the verse aloud. Explain that God loves us and doesn't want us to be terrified of Him. However, we respect and honor Him. Have the kids read the verse again replacing the word “feared” with the word "respected." Then, as a group, read the verse once again replacing the word “feared” with the word “honored.”

SCRIPTURE READING AND DISCUSSION (15 minutes)

Introduction to this week's lesson:

Today, we are going to learn that God should be feared, but not in the way that you might expect. When you arrived, you were asked to write down the first word or words that came to mind when you read certain words. I would like everyone to share what came to mind when you read the word fear. (Write each child’s response to the word fear on the whiteboard. Likely most of their responses were Pachad type fear.

In the English language, there is only one word for fear. In the Hebrew language (the language the Old Testament was written in), there are two words for fear, pachad and yare. Both of these words are used in the Bible, but have very different meanings.

Pachad - Fear

Dread, Terror, To be startled

Yare - To stand in awe

Reverence, Respect, Recognizing the power and position of God and giving Him proper respect.

Read Psalm 22:23

Discussion Questions:

1. What kind of fear is this verse referring to? (Yare.)

2. How does this Psalm command the descendants of Jacob to act towards God? (Praise Him, Honor Him, Revere Him.)

Our next verse talks about a different type of fear. King Saul had become very jealous of David and started chasing him all over the countryside. King Saul wanted to harm David and his men.

Read 1 Samuel 23:15-18

Discussion Questions:

1. What kind of fear is this verse referring to? (Pachad.)

2. Would you put your hand into a fire? (No, of course not. Explain that the reason people don't put their hand in a fire is because they have yare fear of the fire. We have a respect or reverence for the rules or boundaries of the fire. It is the same with God; we know His commands and we should respect and obey them.)
