ASSEMBLY LESSON SERIES: “THE SPIRITUAL REALMS”
BEGINNING NOVEMBER 13TH
This
series follows an exploration of God and His character by acknowledging our
enemy and his hold in our lives and this world. The set is staged by
introducing the idea of spiritual beings and reinforcing the spiritual vision
that we must develop in order to accept God’s victory and resist our enemy. The
Satan is established as the head of this rebellion, but his limitations and
defeat are made apparent through Scriptures and the victory of our Lord, Jesus
Christ. It is God who conquers the enemy, not humans, but he has given us
abundant wisdom on how to address temptation, persecution, and injustice in our
daily walks.
Theme
Scripture: Ephesians 6:10-13
