Overview and Objectives
Lesson Overview
Christ is more than a system, tradition, or belief. He is a Person who knows our needs, feels our pain, and sympathizes with our weakness. In exchange for our trust, He offers to forgive our sins, to intercede for us, and to bring us to His Father. He cried for us, died for us, and rose from the dead to show that He was all He claimed to be. Conquering death, He showed us that He can save us from our sins, live His life through us on earth, and then bring us safely to heaven. He offers Himself as a gift to anyone who will trust Him (John 20:24-31).
Lesson Objectives

- Explain that true Christianity is based upon the relationship we have with Him.
- Explain that it was by Jesus’ stories, miracles, and acts of compassion that He offered Himself as a source of forgiveness and life that no religion in the world could provide.
