RCCG House Fellowship Leader Manual for 24th October 2021
BIBLE TEXT: ACTS 9:1-5 (KJV)
1 And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,
2 And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.
3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:
4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
LESSON INTRODUCTION: Persecution is defined as pursuing in a manner to injure, grieve or afflict; other synonyms for this word include oppress, harass, distress, worry and annoy. Saul of Tarsus was in one way or the other advantaged by being intelligent to have graduated under Gamaliel but he ended up using this God’s given advantage/opportunity to afflict the church of Christ until he was divinely arrested on his way to Damascus, that was his last duty in oppressing, afflicting and putting the church of Christ grieving. Beloved what special gift of advantage has God freely given you and you are using it to oppress, afflict and annoy the church. I pray that today you will repent in the Lord Jesus’ name.

2. And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.
3. And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:
4. And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
5. And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

LESSON OUTLINES
WAYS WE MAYBE PERSECUTING JESUS UNKNOWINGLY
1. Our Riches.
2. Our God’s given talents.
3. Our properties.
4. Our Education.
5. Our Position
6. Our Family reputation
7. Our Spiritual gifts and Ministries.
ACTIVITY: Which other ways can we prosecute Christ unknowingly?
SUMMARY: Physical acquisition of wealth can make a man proud and a proud man will certainly prosecute Christ in any way.
CONCLUSION: The church invariably is described as the body of Christ, if in any way you have done or still doing any of these things; just like our memory verse says as long as you do it to the least of the person in the church, you have done it or prosecuted Jesus Himself.
