背经节(12分钟)
天国近了，你们应当悔改。-马太福音 4:17b
分成两到三个队。解释每个队必须正确且齐声背诵这节经文和出处。每次正确背诵时，每队可以获得最多100分。每个队背诵时，安排一个人仔细聆听，根据他们的表现打分。如果有犹豫，则扣几分；如果并非每个人都能正确背诵，则再扣一些分；如果不能完全齐声，则再扣一些分。然后给下一个队机会。多做几轮，统计总分。最后，总分最高的队获胜。
结束后，问孩子们这节经文对他们意味着什么。
故事与讨论(15分钟)
介绍：
我们的课程系列从耶稣的事工开始，那时祂召集使徒，说祂要使他们成为得人的渔夫。耶稣在加利利传讲福音，医治许多病人和被鬼附的人。由于这些神迹，很多人来到耶稣面前，听祂讲道或寻求医治。有一天，当耶稣站在山上时，有一大群人聚集在祂周围。这时，耶稣教导了我们现在称之为“八福”的内容。
读 马太福音5:1-6（前四福）
讨论问题：
孩子们可能不知道这些问题的答案，但让他们先回答，然后再以他们能理解的方式解释每节经文的含义。
在这些经文中，“蒙福”是什么意思？（作为神的儿女而获得的属灵喜乐和幸福）
“虚心的人”是什么意思？（承认自己并不无所不知，而是完全依赖神）
我们为什么要哀恸，哀恸是什么意思？（因为神恨恶罪。哀恸意味着明白并为自己是罪人而感到悲伤，因为罪使我们与神分离。这也意味着关心我们的朋友和亲人因罪而与神分离。）
神给哀恸之人的安慰是什么？（通过祂的救恩，获得永生）
谁将承受地土，为什么？（谦卑的人，因为神喜悦在祂面前谦卑的人。神的国是属于那些接受并相信祂的独生子耶稣的人。）
“饥渴慕义”是什么意思？（它意味着不断用耶稣的教导来充实我们的思想。当我们这样做时，我们的心将充满喜乐，不再有忧虑、恐惧或嫉妒等负面情绪。）
课堂活动(15分钟)
应用(4分钟)
当耶稣开始祂的事工时，祂说：“天国近了，你们应当悔改。”（马太福音 4:17）耶稣是在告诉人们，祂自己从天上降临到他们中间。但很多人不理解。在祂在世期间，许多人相信遵守律法和规条就能使他们蒙神的喜悦。就像现在一样，很多人相信做好事或去教会就足够了。
在八福中，耶稣教导我们什么是真正的属灵品格和作为神儿女的意义。我们需要承认自己在属灵上是贫穷的，无论我们有多少钱。我们应当在神面前谦卑，才能承受神所应许的。最重要的是，如果我们的心向着神，祂会用永恒的喜乐充满我们的灵魂，而这种喜乐远胜过物质上的享受。
下节课
你可能不能用眼睛看到神，但你身体的一部分可以让你看到神。下周我们将学习那是什么。

MEMORY WORK (12 minutes)
"Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near" Matthew 4:17b NIV
Form two or three teams. Explain that everyone in each team must say the memory verse and reference correctly and in unison. Each team can earn up to 100 points each time they do so. As each team recites the verse together, have someone listen carefully, and award up to the full 100 points depending on how well they do. If there is hesitation, deduct a few points, if not everyone is able to say it deduct some more, if they do not say it in perfect unison, deduct some more. Then give the next team a chance. Do this several times, totaling the points as you go. The team with the most points at the end of set number of rounds is the winner.When finished, ask the children what this verse means to them.
SCRIPTURE READING AND DISCUSSION (15 minutes)
Introduction:
Our lesson series starts at the beginning of Jesus' ministry, after He called together the apostles, saying He would make them fishers of men. Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching the Good News and healing many who were sick or demon possessed. Because of these wonderful things, many would come to Jesus to hear what He had to say or to be healed. One day, a very large crowd of people gathered near Jesus as He stood on a mountainside. It was at this time Jesus taught the people what we now call "The Beatitudes."
Read Matthew 5:1-6 (The first four Beatitudes)
Discussion Questions:
The children will not likely know the answers to these questions, but let them give their responses before explaining the meaning of each verse in a way they will understand.
1. What does blessed mean in these verses? (Spiritual joy and happiness from being a child of God.)
2. What does it mean to be poor in spirit? (Admitting you don't know everything but are totally dependent on God.)
3. Why should we mourn and what does it mean? (We should mourn because God hates sin. To mourn is to understand and be sad that we are sinners because sin separates us from God. It also means to care that our friends and loved ones are separated from God because of their sin.)
4. What is the comfort God gives to those who mourn? (Everlasting life through His gift of salvation.)
5. Who will inherit the earth and why? (The meek, because God favors those who are humble before Him. God's kingdom is for those who accept and believe in His one and only son, Jesus.)
6. What does hunger and thirst for righteousness mean? (It means to continually feed our minds with the teachings of Jesus. When we do this, our hearts will be full of joy, and there won't be any more room for things like worry, fear or envy.)
CLASS EXERCISE (15 minutes)

APPLICATION (4 minutes)
When Jesus began His ministry, He said, "Repent, for the Kingdom of heaven has come near." (Matthew 4:17) Jesus was telling the people that He came down from Heaven Himself to be among them. But many did not understand. During His time on earth, many people believed that obeying the laws and rules would make them favorable to God. Just like now, many believe being good or going to church is enough.
In the beatitudes, Jesus teaches us the real meaning of having spiritual character and being children of God. We need to accept that we are poor spiritually, no matter how much money we have. We should be meek and humble before God, and we will inherit the promised new earth. And most of all, if our hearts are right with God, He will fill our spirits with an everlasting joy that is much better than what we get from material things.
NEXT WEEK
You may not be able to see God with your eyes, but there is a part of your body that lets you see God. Next week we will learn what part that is.
