Lesson 13

But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.
Joshua 24:15

Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved–you and your household.
Acts 16:31

Right: For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Seal: John 3:16

Left side: Jesus said, the most important is this, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength’. The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
Seal: Mark 12:30

Underneath the cross: As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.

In the box: When the time had fully come, God sent his Son. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. God called us to a holy life–not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time, but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus. Being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death–even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory forever! Amen.

Christianize the Family Song (to the tune of Jesus loves me)

From right to left:
(1) To revive Chinese church, it is necessary to revive the family. The whole family should be christianized and hold Jesus as the center.
(Chorus) Christianize the family, Christianize the family, Christianize family, It’s time to Christianize family
(2) Marriage is an image of the way the Lord loves the church. God ordains holy marriage. With monogamy, man and wife respect and love each other. Life and death, sadness and happiness, are their destiny.
(3) Parents are kind to their children and obey their heavenly nature, brothers and sisters are of one heart. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, daughter and her sister-in-law, and wives of brothers are all harmounious and obey the new commandments of the Christ.
(4) There used to be no ineqaulity between masters and servants. They were all brothers in front of the Father. Servants should be sincere and masters should be merciful. They should consider each other as a family.
(5) Families should care about hygiene. Living spaces and food should be clean. Appropriate excercise strengthens the body and holy work glorifies the Lord’s name.
(6) Faith is known through good works, shining gloriously on neighbors. The spirit of fraternity spreads around the world. Save money on food and clothes to help the poor.
(7) If a family wants to be christianized, family worship is the most important. Praying and reading the bible in the morning and evening brings joyfulness from the heaven to fill the family.

Christianize the Family Song (to the tune of gu you san ren)

From right to left:
Made by Zhao Zichen
(1) The holy teaching advocates the holiness of the family, one man and one wife loving each other. The man is loyal and the wife is chaste, never seperating with each other to indicate their love to the Father.
(Refrain) For better or for worse, discuss everything together. To raise boys and girls, be a good model and be the true light of the world.
(2) The holy teaching advocates small families. One man and one wife should take responsibility independently. It’s all kindness of the Father to have freedom, to be equal, and to enrich life.
