“Let the children come to me, so not to hinder them; for to such belongs the Kingdom of God. Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.” Mark 10: 14-15 .
Christian education is a permanent challenge to the work of the Church. Not only did our Lord and Savior continuously teach the word of God during his early mission, but the Church as well from the earliest times looked upon Christian education as one of its essential ministries. As the first Christians joined the Church “they devoted themselves to the apostle’s teaching and fellowship to the breaking of bread and the prayers.”
Acts 2:42 .
The greatest gift, the most precious inheritance that we have to give to our children is Faith. Jesus makes it clear that He wants children to come to know Him, and the He considers it a grave offence for an adult to hinder this process: “whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened round his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.”Matt 18:6.
Sunday School encourages spiritual interaction between the students and the teachers, as well as providing a comprehensive way of learning as a group. Ephesians 4:11, includes teachers within the five-fold ministry of the church.“And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers”.
Every Sunday school teacher, trained intellectually and spiritually can have a great impact on homes, church, and even the country. Therefore every sunday school teacher should employ all their potentials with perseverance to teach the Love Peace and Hope of our everlasting God.
Our Tallent is God’s Gift to us. What we do with it is our gift back to god.
