RCCG Sunday School Teacher’s Manual 7th August 2022

OPENING PRAYER: Almighty Father, help us to hold on to You to the end, in the name of Jesus.

BIBLE PASSAGE: Mark 13:19-26
[19]For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.
[20]And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect’s sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.

[21]And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:

[22]For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. [23]But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
[24]But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,
[25]And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.
[26]And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

MEMORY VERSE: (RCCG Sunday School Teacher’s Manual 7th August 2022) “For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.” Matthew 24:21.

RCCG Sunday School Teacher’s Manual 7th August 2022 || INTRODUCTION:

The word, tribulation, means trouble or suffering. There are different kinds of tribulation mentioned in the Bible. These include: the tribulation of the disciples in the world (Jn.16:33); tribulation because of acceptance or obedience to the word of God (Matt.13:21); the tribulation on the way to the kingdom of God (Acts 14:22; Matt.7:14); earthly tribulation that is common to all (Job 5:6,7); tribulation on evil doers (Rom.2:9) and the great tribulation (Matt.24:21).

The focus of the lesson is the Great Tribulation. The Bible says it is “the mother” of all tribulations. The hardship, turmoil, distress and perplexity that would be experienced in the days of the great tribulation are unprecedented. What is the great tribulation all about? When will it be? What are the events in the days of tribulation?

TEXT REVIEW:
The following shall characterise the days of the great tribulation.
i. Uncommon affliction. (Mark 13:19).
ii. Confusion about location of Christ. (Mark 13:21).
iii. False Christ and prophet. V.22.

iv. The time of the great tribulation is the “seventieth week” of the seventy weeks of Daniel. (Dan.9:24).
v. The seventy weeks are sectioned into three as follow:

b. The next sixty two weeks. (Dan.9:25).
c. The last one week. (Dan.9:25).
vi. In the last “one week” one day represent one year. Therefore, the duration of the tribulation is seven (7) years. (Dan.9:27).
