Bottom left: Jesus said, “Suppose one of you has a friend, and he goes to him at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, because a friend of mine on a journey has come to me, and I have nothing to set before him.’ “Then the one inside answers, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is already locked, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything.’ I tell you, though he will not get up and give him the bread because he is his friend, yet because of the man’s boldness he will get up and give him as much as he needs. “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. (Luke 11:5–9)

Children’s “Cut-out” Poster. No. 8. CHRIST COMES TO JERUSALEM

Matt.21:1—22

1. Entering the city as King. Matt. 21:1—9. In this part of the story the picture of the city gate, branches and children are used. The two children are introduced as an illustration of one who willingly lays all at the feet of Jesus and crowns Him King, receiving the joy of heart that follows; and one who withholds her best and suffers a sad heart in consequence.

2. Cleansing the Temple. Matt. 21:10—16. Here the picture of the Temple is used. when the doors are opened the moneychanger and ox etc. are found inside. A pocket has been made out of the blank piece by folding along the dotted line and pasting to back of Temple. In the pocket thus formed the occupants are found and from there cast out. When Christ comes in He cleanses from all defilement.

3. Seeking fruit. Matt.21:17—22. Here the fig-tree is used. The fruit found in Gal. 5: 22, 23 may be written in large characters as being the fruit Christ should have found. The chorus:—”Come into my heart, Lord Jesus;” may be used. The red heart and three headings are introduced during the lesson. Note:— The gate may be pinned up on the black-board and also all the other pieces in their turn. (or) The pieces may be mounted on cardboard and where necessary made to stand upright by placing cardboard stands at the back. (or) The pieces may be arranged and pasted on a large sheet of paper or cotton beforehand and used that way.
