主题

勇敢、传福音、结果子、影响力、责任、作见证


背诵经文

歌罗西书 3:5


开始祷告(5-10分钟)


团队建造(5分钟)

讨论问题:

如果你是一个外星人,降落到地球之后,需要向你的“外星首领”汇报你观察到的人类特点,

你会怎么描述人类?

(鼓励学生观察人的行为、外貌、习惯等等。)


课堂起头(10分钟)

讨论问题:

  1. 对你来说,“属世界”是什么意思?

  2. 你觉得这是好事还是坏事?为什么?


在歌罗西书第3章中,保罗正是在谈这个问题。在今天要读的经文里,他鼓励信徒:要与周围的世界不同


深入学习(30分钟)

我们今天真正要探讨的问题是:“基督徒到底有什么不同?” 什么使我们与别人分别出来?


有些差异很明显,有些则比较细微。但当你读歌罗西书第3章时,会发现:我们与世界之间的不同,应该是非常明显的。


可选活动(10分钟)

如果教室里可以上网,或者你提前准备好资料,可以使用一个上传照片、寻找“明星相似脸”的网站。虽然只是娱乐活动,但它能帮助学生思考:


“像谁”这个问题。


看到自己像某位明星可能很有趣,但有一个对象是我们“不应该像”的——那就是这个世界。


读 歌罗西书 3:1-17

  1. 哪些属世界的事情是我们应当除掉的?(淫乱、污秽、情欲、恶欲、贪婪、愤怒、暴怒、恶毒、毁谤、污秽的言语等等。)

    要确保学生明白这些词的意思,必要时可以解释。

  2. 根据这段经文,我们应该以什么来代替这些事情?(怜悯、恩慈、谦卑、温柔、忍耐、爱心、饶恕。)

  3. 保罗说我们为什么要这样做?(因为基督徒应当思念上面的事。)

  4. 所以,如果直接问你: “基督徒与世界之间应该是什么关系?” 你会怎么回答?为什么?(开放讨论。)


现在我们暂时离开歌罗西书,看看其他几段经文。我们希望建立一个完整、一致的圣经框架,来理解:我们该如何与世界相处。


读 马太福音 5:13-16

讨论问题:

  1. 这段经文怎样描述我们与世界的关系?用了哪些图像?(基督徒应当成为“盐”和“光”;像山上的城、灯台上的灯。)

  2. 你觉得今天的基督徒,在帮助别人看见耶稣这件事上做得怎么样?你自己呢?(开放讨论。)

  3. 为什么我们的“不同”,常常最后变成一种“自我感觉良好”的表现?(开放讨论。)


可选活动(10分钟)


读 约翰福音 15:18-19

  1. 这些经文怎样描述我们与世界的关系?(世界会恨基督徒。)这和我们刚才学习的内容有什么关系?

  2. 世界恨你吗?你有没有因为信仰而被讨厌、被排斥?(开放讨论。)

  3. 这说明了你信仰中的什么?(开放讨论。)


这里其实已经进入一个很重要的话题:个人化。不是只谈“基督徒应该怎样”,而是:“我到底有多不同?”如果小组气氛足够开放,这里可能会有非常深入的分享。


现在回到歌罗西书第3章。结束前,还有一节经文值得特别注意:第5节。这会是本周的背诵经文。我希望大家下周回来时,都能把它背下来。现在请一位同学来读。


现在大家一起读几遍。


应用(10分钟) 


讨论问题:

  1. 对你来说,“思念天上的事”意味着什么?

  2. 你需要打破哪些坏习惯?又需要建立哪些新的习惯?


请认真思想:什么叫做“思念天上的事”,而不是“思念属世界的事”?


你需要:

  • 承认哪些罪?

  • 改掉哪些习惯?

  • 建立哪些新的生活方式?


请每个人写下一件事来认罪,如果内容太私密,不想让别人知道,你也可以只写:“个人挣扎”。但仍然鼓励大家愿意敞开分享。这是一个可以诚实彼此代祷的小组。


现在,请把你写下的传给右边的人。接下来:请默默为你左边那位同学所写的挣扎祷告。

我们安静祷告一两分钟,然后我会作结束祷告。


结束祷告(2分钟)

Colossians

Lesson 3: Our Connection to the World


LESSON OBJECTIVESGoals

1. For students to become familiar with Colossians 3

2. For students to discover a higher standard of living for their lives

3. For students to actively put to death sin in their lives


Topics

Boldness, Evangelism, Fruitfulness, Influence, Responsibility, Witnessing


Scripture Memorization

Colossians 3:5


OPENING PRAYER (5 to 10 minutes)


GROUP BUILDING (5 minutes)

Discussion Question

If you were an alien and you landed on earth, and you had to report back to your chief alien what you saw, what would be some characteristics that you noticed in humans?

(There’s a space for this in their workbooks. Encourage them to notice behaviors, appearances, etc.)


GETTING STARTED (10 minutes)

Discussion Questions

1. What does it mean to you to be “worldly”?

2. Do you think this is a good or bad thing? Why/why not?


In Colossians 3, Paul hits on this very idea. In the verses we’re going to read this week, he encourages the reader to be different from the world around him or her.


DIGGING IN (30 minutes)

What we’re getting at here is the question, “What’s the difference?” What makes Christians different from everyone else? What should set us apart?


Sometimes differences are obvious and sometimes they are subtle. When you read this chapter of Colossians, it seems like the differences between us and the world are supposed to very noticeable.


Optional Activity (10 minutes)

If you have internet capabilities in your meeting space, or if you do some legwork ahead of class, there is a website where you can upload pictures and get celebrity look-a-like matches. It requires a free membership (although you can do a demo without one), but sometimes the matches are quite humorous.


Check it out at www.myheritage.com. It’s mostly for fun, but it gets students thinking about look-a-likes. While it’s fun to see who we look like, there’s a point where we should NOT look like the world.


Read Colossians 3:1-17 

Discussion Questions

1. What are some of the worldly things of which we should rid ourselves? (Sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires, greed, anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language. Be sure the students understand the things they list, taking time to explain the ones they do not)

2. According to this text, what are some things we are supposed to embrace in their place? (Compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, patience, love, and forgiveness)

3. What does Paul say is the reason we should do this? (Christians are to set their hearts and minds on things above)

4. So with all that said, if I asked you straight up what our connection to the world should be, what would you say? Why? (Allow for discussion)


We’re going to step outside of Colossians and look at a couple of other passages of Scripture. We want to have a consistent biblical framework to shape our opinions on this idea of relating to the world.


Read Matthew 5:13-16

Discussion Questions

1. What does that passage say about how we relate to the world? What images does it use to convey that point? (Christians are to be salt and light to those around them. A city on a hill and a lamp under a bowl)

2. How well do you think modern-day Christians are at being a light for other people to see Jesus? How about you? (Allow for discussion)

3. Why do you think that our differences end up being more of a pat-ourselves-on-the-back thing so often? (Allow for discussion)


Optional Activity (10 minutes)

Stale to the World (Object Talk) Click here


Read John 15:18-19

Discussion Questions

1. What do those verses say about our relationship to the world? (Christians will be hated by the world) How do they compare to what we’ve already studied? (Allow for discussion)

2. Does the world hate you? Have you ever been persecuted for your faith or “hated” on account of Jesus? (Allow for discussion)

3. What does that say about your faith? (Allow for discussion)


(We’ve kind of snuck up on an important point here, that is the personalization of this stuff, to get students to think about how different they really are. You might ask them at this point how different they feel they are, and some of the things that are the same. If you have a group that can be very open, this could turn into some really good discussion)


Let’s return to Colossians 3. There’s one more verse I want to look at more deeply before we finish up. Check out verse 5 again. We’re going to have a memory verse this week. I want everyone to come back next week ready to recite this thing. Someone read it for us.


Now let’s say it a couple of times together. Write it in your workbooks if you have to, but learn it!


MAKING IT REAL (10 minutes)

Discussion Questions

1. What is it going to mean for you to set your your mind on heavenly things?

2. What bad habits do you need to break? What new habits do you need to establish?


(Have them think about that thought, about what it will mean to “set their minds” on heavenly things instead of worldly. What sins do they need to confess, what habits do they need to break, what new habits need to be established, etc.)I


want everyone to decide on one thing and write it down on your workbook (there’s a spot labeled “confessions.” If it’s really personal and you don’t want anyone to know what it is, just write “personal struggle,” but I encourage you to open up and share with us. This is a safe group to be honest with.


Okay, now let’s pass our handouts to our right. What I want you to do is pray for the person on your left and the struggle they’ve listed. We’re going to do this silently for a minute or two, and then I’ll close out loud. Let’s pray.


CLOSING PRAYER (2 minutes)
