Sunday School Lesson # 43
Hope
Memory Verse: Titus 2:13
“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great
God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.”
Bible Examples:
1. Abraham (Romans 4:18 )
Abraham believed in hope against all hope. He is an example to us
all. Remember, with God all things are possible (Mark 10:27).
Points to teach:
1. Faith is the substance of hope. (Hebrews 11:1)
Hope is intangible. It has no substance in itself. Faith allows us to
hope. We must believe that which we hope for will become reality. The
belief gives us substance so we can hold on to hope.
Elementary ideas:
1. Bring a hope chest to your class. Have several things inside the chest for
which your children should hope. You could also pull out each of your
points as you teach them. Special prizes could also be in the hope chest.
2. Bring in several items (or pictures of items) in which people often look
for hope. (Money would be a good example.) Teach them that there is no
hope in these things. Have a Bible wrapped or concealed and bring it out as
the answer to hope.
