The Rock of Ages

Preview: This lesson outlines how the Church is structured and how we fit into that framework.


Scripture Reading: I Corinthians 3:1-13.

Memory Verse: I Corinthians 3:11.

1. What is the foundation and who is the cornerstone in the Church of God? Ephesians 2:20.
2. Who is the head and Savior of the Church? Ephesians 5:23 & Ephesians 5:25.
3. How many bodies, faiths, and Spirits are there in Christ’s Church? Ephesians 4:4-5.
4. What does Christ demand of us that we may be lights and blameless in this world? Philippians 2:14-15.
Note: Many do not understand this lesson as most people think they can be saved in any group, under any teaching, just so they are sincere. Christ, the disciples, and the apostles made it plain that there is but one way to the Kingdom- “the straight and narrow way, and few there be that find it.” Too many people want to worship God as they please, even if the way they desire is different from the way the Bible teaches. Christ and the disciples suffered death because they proclaimed that there was but one way and one Gospel.
5. Did Jesus send a guide to reveal the future things to His people? John 16:13.
Note: The Holy Spirit does not seek to please individuals. It leads the servants of Christ into truth and shows them things to come.
6. Did Peter want to follow Christ in His own way? John 13:8-9.
7. What is the true standard for the Church? Isaiah 8:20.
Note: Many will speak according to the law as did the Pharisees, but they are unwilling to come to the Testimony of Christ too. Those who expect to inherit the Kingdom of God must comply with both.
8. Will Christ’s followers teach the observance of the law? Matthew 5:19.
9. What is commanded of Christians in the fourth Commandment? Exodus 20:8-11.
10. Is there a promise to those who obey this command? Isaiah 56:2.
