孩子们将探讨屈服于肉体欲望和出于爱、怜悯和谦卑行事之间的区别。
主题
敬虔、谦卑、爱、怜悯、自控、世俗
白色海报纸
马克笔、剪刀、胶
时间
约20分钟
课前准备
将海报纸对半切开，做成两个标志牌。（两张打印纸也可以，但标志牌会较小。）在一个标志牌上用大字体印上“肉体”，在另一个上面大字体印上“爱”。将每个情景打印出来，并将每个情景剪成独立的卡片。
说明
1.做：
首先让班级一起大声朗读路加福音6:27-31。确保他们看到，耶稣向众人说了这些话。然后，让每个孩子与另一个学生成对。给每对学生一份情景。（您将需要五对学生来表演这五个情景。如果学生少于十个，根据需要将多个情景指派给一对学生。）
表演者可以用动作和语言来表演情景。向班级解释每对表演者将表演一个与他们刚刚从圣经中读到的类似情景。之后，其他所有孩子必须决定所发生的事情是出于肉体欲望还是爱，然后站在墙上适当的标志牌旁边。在每个人都做出选择后，宣布正确的答案，并向孩子们解释表演者试图表现的内容。然后，让孩子们根据下面所示的每个情景回答讨论问题。
2.说：
情景1 - 祝福那些咒骂你的人（正确标志：肉体）
问题讨论：
1.当有人辱骂你时，自然的反应是反击。根据耶稣的话，我们应该做什么？（祝福那人）
2.我们如何祝福那些辱骂我们的人？（说一些好话，宽恕，无论对方的行为如何，都去爱他/她。）
情景2 - 为那些虐待你的人祷告（正确标志：爱）
问题讨论：
1.当有人虐待你时，自然的反应是生气。耶稣说我们应该做什么？（为那人祷告）
2.为什么不是生气而是为对方祷告会让神喜悦？（因为这是神要求我们做的。这显示出爱、无私和谦卑。即使我们看不到任何结果，也知道我们的回报在天国。）
情景3 - 转过另一边的脸（正确标志：爱）
问题讨论：
1.如果有人打了你的脸，自然的反应是还手或以同样的方式报复。耶稣说我们应该做什么？（转过另一边的脸）
2.耶稣说转过另一边的脸是什么意思？（意思是我们不应该寻求报复或以类似的方式回击。相反，我们应该以敬虔的爱来回应，也许可能让那个人回转归向基督。）
情景4 - 把里衣也给他们（正确标志：肉体）
问题讨论：
1.如果有人拿走你的外衣，自然的反应是把它拿回来。耶稣说我们应该做什么？（把里衣也给那人。）
2.把你的里衣给拿走你外衣的人是一种爱的行为吗？（通过把里衣也给对方，你向一个急需帮助的人表现出谦卑和慷慨。这甚至可能在他/她的心中引发积极的改变。）
情景5 - 不要再要回来（正确标志：爱）
问题讨论：
1.如果有人拿走属于你的东西，自然的反应是希望它被归还。耶稣说我们应该做什么？（我们不应该再要回来。）
2.耶稣告诉我们无论别人要什么，我们都要给，这是什么意思？（祂并不是告诉我们要把钱/东西给那些用于错误目的的人。很多人向我们乞讨，我们应该愿意给那些以正确方式向我们要东西的人——出于真正的需要。这样做，显示了我们对物质财产的自由。）

RESISTING FLESHLY DESIRES
Children explore the difference between giving into their fleshly desires and acting out of love with mercy and humility.
TOPICS: Godliness, Humility, Love, Mercy, Self-control, Worldliness
MATERIALS: Action situations [PDF] Click here White poster board Markers, scissors, tape
DURATION: Approximately 20 minutes
PREPARATION: Cut the poster board in half in order to make two signs. (Two sheets of printer paper can work as well but the signs will be smaller.) On one sign, print in large letters the word FLESH, and on the other, print largely the word LOVE. Tape each sign to a wall on opposite sides of the room. In addition, print the action situations sheet and cut each situation into its own card.
WHAT YOU WILL DO: You will start by having the class read Luke 6:27-31 aloud. Make sure they understand that Jesus is speaking these words to the crowds. Then, have each child pair up with another student. Give one situation to each pair of students. (You will need five pairs of students to perform all five situations. If you have less than ten students, assign more than one situation to any pair of students as necessary.) The performers can use actions and words to act out their situations. Explain to the class that each pair of performers will act out a situation similar to what they just read from the Bible. Afterwards, everyone else in the class must decide if what happened demonstrated acting out of a desire of the flesh or love, and then stand next to the appropriate sign on the wall. After everyone has made his or her choice, announce the correct choice and explain to the children what the performers were trying to demonstrate. Then, let the children respond to the discussion questions pertaining to each situation as shown below.
WHAT YOU WILL SAY:
Situation 1 - Bless Those Who Curse You (Correct sign: FLESH) Discussion Questions: 1. When someone curses or abuses you, the natural tendency is to strike back. According to Jesus, what should we do instead? (Bless the person.) 2. How can we bless someone who curses us? (By saying nice things, forgiving, and loving the person despite his or her actions.) Situation 2 - Pray for Those Who Mistreat You (Correct sign: LOVE) Discussion Questions: 1. When someone mistreats you, the natural tendency is to get angry. What does Jesus say we should do instead? (Pray for the person.) 2. How does praying for someone instead of getting angry please God? (Because it is what God asks us to do. It shows love, selflessness, and humility. Even if we don't see any results, we know our reward is in Heaven.)
Situation 3 - Turn the Other Cheek (Correct sign: LOVE) Discussion Questions: 1. If someone hits you on the cheek, the natural tendency is to punch back or retaliate in some way. What does Jesus say we should do instead? (Turn the other cheek.) 2. What do you think Jesus means by saying we should turn the other cheek? (He means we should not seek revenge or retaliate in a similar manner. Instead, we should respond out of godly love and possibly win that person over to Christ.)
Situation 4 - Give Them Your Shirt Also (Correct sign: FLESH) Discussion Questions: 1. If someone takes your coat (cloak) from you, the natural tendency is to take it back. What does Jesus say we should do instead? (Give the person your shirt [coat] as well.) 2. Why would giving your shirt to someone who took your coat be an act of love? (By giving your shirt also, you are showing humility and generosity to someone who is desperate or in distress. This may even cause a positive change to take place in his or her heart.) Situation 5 - Don't Demand It Back (Correct sign: LOVE) Discussion Questions: 1. If someone takes something that belongs to you, the natural tendency is to want it returned. What does Jesus say we should do instead? (We should not demand it back.) 2. What does Jesus mean when He tells us to give whatever we have to anyone who asks for it? (He is not telling us to give money or things to people who intend to use it for wrong purposes. There are many who beg us for things, but we should willingly give to those who ask correctly—out of a true need. In doing this, we show how we are free of material possessions.)
