Sunday School Lesson on the Crucifixion and Faith
The lesson text from John chapters 19 to 42 discusses Jewish rulers rejecting Jesus as king and demanding crucifixion. It reflects on the cross, forgiveness, and fulfillment of Scripture, urging bold faith like Joseph and Nicodemus, contrasted with denials, while weaving moral reflections, witness accounts, and Cyril Thorold’s thoughts. A parable about two men planning robbery illustrates virtue in children’s influence and consequences.
