TOPIC: BEING BORN AGAIN (PART 2)
Note: Check RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL HYMN LYRICS
BIBLE PASSAGE: Romans 5:1-5
1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
MEMORY VERSE: Romans 8:30
Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
INTRODUCTION
Being born again is not a title or an entitlement. Rather, the evidence must be in living a sanctified life and allowing the Holy Spirit to lead/ control one’s life.
Furthermore, an understanding of the concepts of justification and assurance of salvation is very essential to the establishment of a new convert in Christ.
This study attempts to shed some light on these basic concepts of the Christian faith.
OUTLINES:
1. A Justified Life
2. Assurance Of Salvation
1. A Justified Life
To justify simply means to declare someone righteous.
Meaning, God begins to see you as you have never sinned (Romans 3:21-25; 5:1).
The law and the justice of God demand death as the penalty for sin (Ezekiel 184) and punishment for the wicked (Isaiah 57:20-21).
Two major events are obvious with justification:
One is that the sin is forgiven and the punishment of that sin is removed from the sinner (Isaiah 43:25).
The second is that the righteousness of Jesus Christ is credited to the sinner’s account (Romans 5:18).
The justified life is obtained simply by grace (Romans 3:24);
By the blood of Jesus Christ (Romans 5:9);
By His resurrection (Romans 4:25).
Now that we are born again, we wear a justified life identified by peace with God and vibrant, enjoyable prayer life (Romans 5:1-2).
However. we must continue to work out our salvation with fear and trembling by avoiding sin (Philippians 2:12; 1 John 3:9).
CLASS ACTIVITY 1:
the class should share now they knew they have been justified.
2. Assurance Of Salvation
As a new creature in Christ, it is important to have the assurance of salvation.
This assurance can be found:
In the word of God (Romans 10:9-11);
Through the witness of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:16);
and in the evidence of a changed life (2 Corinthians 5:17).
Feelings or comments of people are unreliable for your assurance; therefore, do not lean on them.
Be warned of doubts that may arise about your salvation.
Do not open the door to sin, worldliness (1 John 2:15-16), laziness in praying and constant study of the word of God (2 Timothy 2:15).
Be filled with the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 5:18; Jude 20).
CLASS ACTIVITY 2
Students should share other ways they are assured of their salvation.
CONCLUSION: RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL STUDENT MANUAL 5 NOVEMBER 2023
Once you are born again, you receive the righteousness of Christ and the Holy Spirit impresses on your heart that you have become a child of God.
