Lesson 9 || Times of Loss || #MelVee #SabbathSchool - Q2 2019

Description

MelVee Sabbath School Lesson 09 (Overview) There are some phases of family life we wish we never had to go through. Some are inevitable, but still acutely painful, such as the eventual loss of health and life. Others we never imagined possible. Who would have dreamed that our wedding days, standing before friends and family, also could be the inaugurations of adultery, addiction, or domestic violence? But it happens all the time. This week’s lesson ponders some of the more sobering realities of family life that we will be exposed to, and addresses them through biblical and Christian counsel. There is no doubt that our physical health and well-being are a concern to our Lord. When we suffer, He suffers: “Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows” (Isa. 53:4). We might have thought that when the Messiah came to the world, He would have had more pressing responsibilities than to spend time healing individuals, but we would be wrong. That is exactly where He spent most of His time. We can assume His heart has not changed in that respect. Therefore, His ever-present concern and care for the sick should forever stamp the ministries of those who take His name. “I trusted you!” The tone in which one reads those words betrays the reality that they are often spoken following grievous acts of betrayal. Jesus Himself knows what it is like to be betrayed (Luke 22:48) and can empathize with all those who have had their trust dashed. Even His words concerning adultery (Matt. 5:28), though often read in light of personal holiness, can be seen as an attempt at preserving spousal commitment by wisely preventing in the heart that which the law condemns in the body.
