RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL STUDENT MANUAL LESSON 14 (7 DECEMBER 2025)
TOPIC: THE EYE GATE
BIBLE PASSAGE: Luke 11:33-36
33 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.
34 The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
35 Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
36 If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.
MEMORY VERSE:
“The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.” Luke 11:34.
INTRODUCTION
The eye gate, which is also referred to as the windows of/to the soul, plays a strategic role in the information transmitted to the mind. The eyes dominate emotional communication because what we allow through our eye gate will eventually leach into our mind which is the centre of our thoughts, feelings, and reasoning.
For any believer to stay pure and honour Christ always, the person must consciously guard what is allowed into his/her being through the eye gate (Job 31:1).
LESSON OUTLINE 1: THE WORKS OF “UNHEALTHY EYES”
People with “Unhealthy Eyes” exhibit the following works of the flesh:
i. They are full of lust of the flesh to practice all forms of ungodliness (1 John 2:16).
ii. Due to a lack of, fear of God, these eyes have been exposed to iniquity and immorality (Romans 3:18).
iii. They are full of adultery and cannot cease from sin (2 Peter 2:14).
iv. They are blinded by darkness and filled with hatred (1 John 2:11).
v. They hide from doing good (Proverbs 28:27).
vi. They are pure in their own eyes and filled with pride (Proverbs 30:12-13).
vii. They give their eyes to excessive sleep and are lazy (Proverbs 20:13).
viii. Their eyes are closed to do perverse things (Proverbs 16:30).
CLASS ACTIVITY 1:

LESSON OUTLINE 2: CONSTITUENTS OF “HEALTHY EYES”
“Healthy eyes” are consciously developed by believers in Christ Jesus, to guard against any form of pollution. Some of the elements of “healthy eyes” include:
- Self-Control: We must develop the self-will to control what we allow to pass through our eye gate all the time (Galatians 5:22-23). The eyes must be restrained from roaming unnecessarly.
This must be a personal resolve to only expose the eyes to anything that will benefit it (Job 31:1). - Exposure: We must consciously guard our eyes against any exposure to vile things. (Psalm 101:3).
- Censor: There are some films we must deliberately refuse to watch and there are some books we must not feed our eyes on (1 Thessalonians 5:22).
- Discipline/Guidance: We guide our eyes when we quickly take them off anything that can pollute our minds. This must be done on purpose to avoid any contamination (Genesis 9:22-25).
- Conscious: As believers, we must be conscious of where we are and quickly leave any environment or item that can harm us in the long run through our eyes (2 Samuel 11:1-2).
CLASS ACTIVITY 2:
Do you think you have “healthy eyes?” Share your reasons with the class.
