Lessons from Jonah: Love Your Neighbor-Luke10:25-37 Kinder Box: “P” Verse Mystery Bag: Philippians 2:4 In studying Jonah, we have seen that Jonah didn’t really love the people of Nineveh. Jonah said that he would rather die than for God to be merciful to them! Even though Jonah felt that way, it wasn't the way God wanted him to act. God wants us to love all people, no matter how they treat us or behave. He wants us to be kind and merciful, just like He is. This shows others the way God loves us. This week we are going to look at a good example of how God wants us to love. We are going to turn to a teaching Jesus gave that will show us the way God wants us to show His love to others. Read Luke 10:25-37 The good Samaritan is a parable, which is a made-up story that is used to teach a lesson. In this parable, Jesus teaches us that showing kindness and treating others the way we want people to treat us, is how we show others love. If you were being robbed and beaten, wouldn't you want someone to stop and help you? When we are hungry, we want to be fed, when we are thirsty, we would like someone to give us a drink. Doing something kind to help others is how God wants us all to show His love. Another amazing way to show love is to pray for someone. This week be looking for a way that you can show someone God’s love and share with us next week! Quiz Questions 1. God desires us to show His love to all people. (True or yes) * * 2.
