Spotlight! Session #5 Week of 12/8/19 the Patriarchs Spotlight! Session #5 Week of 12/8/19 The Patriarchs Video Intro - Opening Prayer The Nicene Creed I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen. Icebreaker Discussion: Here you will find a current top 40 song. The subject of the song may/may not reflect the topic of the lesson. PLEASE PLAY THE AUDIO VERSION OF THE SONG! Music videos are the work of artists and video producers and associate an image with the song that may or may not represent the lyrical value of the song. The goal of the icebreaker song is to have a song that both students and parents have heard or is currently charting. We want to use these songs to get parents and students talking so when we get to the core of the lesson, both parties are warmed up and ready to share. Parents should view the video prior to the lesson to see if it is something that you want to view during the lesson. Burning Man / Dierks Bentley Values: Positive Pace: Medium Clarity: Clear Issues: This song could serve as a review of many people's lives. It takes a look at life's journeys. "Half your life you struggle, half your life you fly. Half your life makin' trouble, half your life makin' it right." We can take a close look at the many options we deal with on a regular basis. "I always loved the highway, I just don't run it as fast. I still go wherever the wind blows me, but I always find my way back." He is being very upfront about the way he has handled his decisions in life. "I'm a little bit heaven but still a little bit flesh and bone. I'm a little bit holy water but still a little bit burning man." Questions: How would you describe the way you handle what your life deals you? If you could describe your life so far as a highway, what would the highway look like? Actions: Become a song writer for a moment and review your life.

Trivia for large group) 1. Patriarchs of the Bible – Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, 2. Abraham’s wife was Sarah 3. The twelve tribes of Israel were descendants of the sons of Jacob 4. Magisterium – The teaching authority of the Roman Catholic Church, especially as exercised by bishops or the Pope. 5. Vulgate - the principal Latin version of the Bible, prepared mainly by St. Jerome in the late 4th century, and (as revised in 1592) adopted as the official text for the Roman Catholic Church. Featured Scripture for Discussion This is the section where you will read the scripture, discuss it and answer the questions. To us it seems horrible that God would ask Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac. But this story is meant to be a sign of Abraham’s complete trust in God. Ultimately, God prevented the sacrifice because God wanted not Isaac’s death but Abraham’s faith. Because of his willingness to respond to God’s demand, Abraham is recognized as the father of our faith. Our trust in God should be as total as Abraham’s trust was. We probably won’t ever be faced with the test of Abraham, but perhaps we will be faced with different, though equally difficult tests of faith in our own lives. The story of Abraham shows us the power of faith. Because of Abraham’s faith in God’s promise, Isaac lived and became the father of Jacob, whose twelve sons became the twelve Tribes of Israel. – The Catholic Youth Bible Third Addition NABRE The Spotlight scripture is Genesis 22:1-19 New American Bible (Revised Edition) (NABRE) Chapter 22 The Testing of Abraham.[a] 1 Some time afterward, God put Abraham to the test and said to him: Abraham! “Here I am!” he replied. 2 Then God said: Take your son Isaac, your only one, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah. There offer him up as a burnt offering on one of the heights that I will point out to you. 3 Early the next morning Abraham saddled his donkey, took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac, and after cutting the wood for the burnt offering, set out for the place of which God had told him. 4 On the third day Abraham caught sight of the place from a distance. 5 Abraham said to his servants: “Stay here with the donkey, while the boy and I go on over there. We will worship and then come back to you.” 6 So Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and laid it on his son Isaac, while he himself carried the fire and the knife. As the two walked on together, 7 Isaac spoke to his father Abraham. “Father!” he said. “Here I am,” he replied. Isaac continued, “Here are the fire and the wood, but where is the sheep for the burnt offering?” 8 “My son,” Abraham answered, “God will provide the sheep for the burnt offering.” Then the two walked on together. 9 When they came to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. Next he bound[b] his son Isaac, and put him on top of the wood on the altar. 10 Then Abraham reached out and took the 11 knife to slaughter his son. But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven, “Abraham, Abraham!” “Here I am,” he answered. 12 “Do not lay your hand on the boy,” said the angel. “Do not do the least thing to him. For now I know that you fear God, since you did not withhold from me your son, your only one.” 13 Abraham looked up and saw a single ram caught by its horns in the thicket. So Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering in place of his [c] 14 [d] son. Abraham named that place Yahweh-yireh; hence people today say, “On the mountain the LORD will provide.” 15 [e] 16 A second time the angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven and said: “I swear by my very self—oracle of 17 the LORD—that because you acted as you did in not withholding from me your son, your only one, I will bless you and make your descendants as countless as the stars of the sky and the sands of the seashore; your descendants will take possession of the gates of their enemies, 18 and in your descendants all the nations of the earth will find blessing, because you obeyed my command.” 19 Abraham then returned to his servants, and they set out together for Beer-sheba, where Abraham lived. Discussion Questions: 1. How far are you willing to go for God? 2. Have you ever doubted God? What do you doubt about? 3. Would you follow God wherever he led you and do whatever he told you no matter how hard your path may be if he spoke directly to you? 4. Have you heard the voice of God in your life? (through other people, dreams, songs, experiences) 5. What do you think Abraham would say if you asked him these questions? a. Did you need to understand God’s promise to you or did trusting God come easy for you? b. Did you struggle with doubts before God called you? c. What was going through your mind when you tied up Isaac? d. What would your advise be to young people who doubt God? 6. Check out these bible verses on the topic of trusting God a. James 1:3-4 b. James 5:11 c. Luke 8:15 d. Romans 2:7 7. Because of your beliefs have you ever had to give up someone or something that was precious to you? 8. How has your life been enriched as a result of your trust in God? Catechism Connection: Faith and Obedience (142-144) By revelation, God calls men.

  • The Internal Consistency and Historical Reliability of the Biblical Genealogies
    Vetus Testamentum XL, 2 (1990) THE INTERNAL CONSISTENCY AND HISTORICAL RELIABILITY OF THE BIBLICAL GENEALOGIES by GARY A. RENDSBURG Ithaca, New York The general trend among scholars in recent years has been to treat the genealogies recorded in the Bible with an increased skep- ticism. Whereas past generations of scholars may have been ready to affirm the trustworthiness of at least some of the Israelite lineages, current research in this area has led to the opposite con- clusion. Provided with parallels both from ancient Near Eastern documents and from the sociological and anthropological study of tribal societies of the present, most scholars today contend that the biblical genealogies do not constitute a reliable source for the reconstruction of history.' The current approach is that the genealogies may retain some value for the reconstruction of political ties on a national or tribal level,2 but that in no way should they be taken at face value. This is especially true for those genealogies which purport to be from early Israelite times, such as the lineages of Moses or David. In the present article I will offer some evidence which, depending on how it is judged, may stem the tide described above. The approach to be taken will differ from recent work on the subject, in that it will adduce no external evidence from either ancient or modern times. Instead, I will concentrate on the genealogies them- selves, in particular those lineages of characters who appear in Exodus through Joshua. I anticipate one of the results of my analysis with the following statement: the genealogies themselves 1 See especially R.

  • The Autobiography of Methuselah
    The Autobiography of Methuselah John Kendrick Bangs New York B. W. Dodge &Company 1909 Copyright, 1908, by B. W. Dodge &Company Aegypan ISBN: 1606643258 FOREWORD Having recently passed into what my great-grandson Shem calls my Anecdotage, it has occurred to me that perhaps some of the recollections of a more or less extended existence upon this globular[1] mass of dust and water that we are pleased to call the earth, may prove of interest to posterity, and I have accordingly, at the earnest solicitation of my grandson, Noah, and his sons, Shem, Ham and Japhet, consented to put them into permanent literary form. In view of the facts that at this writing, ink and paper and pens have not as yet been invented, and that we have no capable stenographers among our village folk, and that because of my advanced years I should find great difficulty in producing my manuscript on a type-writing machine with my gouty fingers—for, of the luscious fluid of the grape have I been a ready, though never over-abundant, consumer—even if I were familiar with the keyboard of such an instrument, or, if indeed, there were any such instrument to facilitate the work—in view of these facts, I say, I have been compelled to make use of the literary methods of the Egyptians, and with hammer and chisel, to gouge out my “Few Remarks" upon such slabs of stone as I can find upon my native heath. [Footnote 1: It is quite interesting, in the light of the contentions of history as to man's earliest realization that the earth is round, to find Methuselah speaking in this fashion.

  • Luke Chapter 3 – John Karmelich
    Luke Chapter 3 – John Karmelich 1. My lesson title is, "Preparing people for the coming of Jesus and preparing Jesus for the world." I admit that I took that title from a John MacArthur sermon and changed it a little. The more I read this chapter, the more I realized how appropriate it was. With that stated, let me describe what is happening in this chapter and then talk about why this is important for our lives: 2. The chapter focuses on two key historical events. The first is John the Baptist and what he did to prepare people for Jesus coming in the world. You may recall that Chapter 2 ended with part of Jesus' life when he was 12 years old. Luke does his best to "time stamp" the starting date of John's ministry by stating all of the people in charge of government and the Jewish leaders at that time. In short, it is now about 18 years after Chapter 2. At that point the text talks about what John said and did to prepare people for the coming of the Messiah. Note that Luke writes outside of a time sequence here. My point is Luke uses the first half of Chapter 3 to state the purpose, mission and end of John's ministry to prepare people for Jesus' coming. a) Then the chapter does an abrupt switch, and gives a genealogy of Jesus going backwards from his parents all the way back to Adam. Some have argued that this is the genealogy of Joseph and that it involved actual parents versus adopted parents.
