SABBATH School lesson 12, 2nd quarter of 2015

Jesus traveled throughout Galilee and Judea teaching and performing miracles. He set his face towards Jerusalem, where the most dramatic week in history would take place. The week began with Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem riding on a donkey, as prophesied. During the week, Jesus drove the money changers from the temple, taught parables confronting the religious leaders, and established the Lord's Supper on Maundy Thursday before being crucified on Good Friday.

Lesson 12 for June 20, 2015www.gmahktanjungpinang.org Adapted from : www.fustero.es
He was born in Bethlehem. He grew up in Nazareth. He taught, preached, and healed throughout Galilee, Samaria, Judea, and Perea. But one city held His constant focus: Jerusalem. Jesus “steadfastly set His face to go to” the city (Luke 9:51, NKJV). His entry into the city marked the most dramatic and crucial week in world history. The week began with Christ’s kingly march into the city and saw His death on the cross. Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday 1. The triumphal entry. 2. The purification of the temple. 3. The parable of the workers in the vineyard. 4. The issue of the tribute. 5. The Lord’s Supper. SAMARIA JUDEA JERUSALEM Friday 6.The cross.
(Luke 19:28-40) “Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King is coming to you; He is just and having salvation, lowly and riding on a donkey, a colt, the foal of a donkey.” (Zechariah 9:9) Jesus went to Jerusalem in order to fulfill His work of salvation. Let’s study some aspects of His triumphal entry to that city: 1. “The Lord has need of him.” (v. 34)  Why did Jesus need a colt?  What does He need to enter my life? 2. “As He went, many spread their clothes on the road.” (v. 36)  What did that gesture mean?  What must I lay down at the feet of Jesus so He can enter my heart? 3. “The stones would immediately cry out.” (v. 40)  Why were those who praised him on Sunday quiet on Friday (during His crucifixion)?  Am I proclaiming Jesus or are others doing it instead?
“Then He went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it, saying to them, ‘It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’’” (Luke 19:45-46) That didn’t happen on Sabbath, and they were doing business with things related to the service in the temple (doves, money changers…). So why was doing that within the spacious inner courtyard of the temple wrong? I am the temple of God (1 Corinthians 3:16). What should I change in order to be a “house of prayer” and not a “den of thieves?” Let Jesus clean the temple of your heart.
“And the chief priests and the scribes that very hour sought to lay hands on Him, but they feared the people—for they knew He had spoken this parable against them.” (Luke 20:19) How can you bear the fruit God expects from you? How could you keep it for yourself (v. 9-10)? Are you paying attention to the warnings of the old and modern prophets (v. 11-12)? “Whoever falls on that stone will be broken; but on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder.” (Luke 20:18) Have you been broken on the Rock, or will you be destroyed when it will fall on you (v. 13- 18)?
What was the trick on the question “Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?” (v. 22)? How can we combine our loyalty to God and our loyalty to our Country? “And He said to them, ‘Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.’” (Luke 20:25)
“And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.’ Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you.’” (Luke 22:19-20) We remember two vital lessons when taking part in the Lord’s Supper: 1. Jesus saved us by dying at the cross (Matthew 26:28). 2. We are a united community waiting for his Second Coming when we sit together at His table (1 Corinthians 11:26).
“In this last act of Christ in partaking with His disciples of the bread and wine, He pledged Himself to them as their Redeemer by a new covenant, in which it was written and sealed that upon all who will receive Christ by faith will be bestowed all the blessings that heaven can supply, both in this life and in the future immortal life. This covenant deed was to be ratified by Christ’s own blood… This ordinance is not to be exclusive, as many would make it. Each must participate in it publicly, and thus say: ‘I accept Christ as my personal Saviour. He gave His life for me, that I might be rescued from death.’” E.G.W. (Evangelism, cp. 8, pg. 276)
