Lesson: Learning to Be Content
Bible Truth: The Ten Commandments remind Christians that they must depend on Jesus to obey his commands, confess their sin and show their gratitude for such a great salvation by the way they live. (Exod. 19, 20; Rom. 8; Heb. 10; Col. 3; Phil. 1)
Lesson Focus: To remember that the law points sinners to Christ the Savior; to understand that Christians need to confess when they sin and ask Jesus for forgiveness; to recognize that the Ten Commandments show forgiven Christians how God wants them to live.
