Topic: My Enemy: “The Flesh”

Sunday School Manual Lesson No: 5

OPENING PRAYER: Oh Lord, please expose the secrets of “the flesh” to me in Jesus’ name.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE: The teacher should allow the assistant teacher to review the lesson for the previous week.

MEMORY VERSE: “So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.” – Romans 8:8 (KJV)

BIBLE PASSAGE: Romans 7:18-22 (KJV)

18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.

19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.

20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.

22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:

LESSON INTRODUCTION: ‘The world’ is our external enemy, but we have another enemy which is an internal enemy called, “the flesh.” Our enemy, the Devil, has “a stronghold” inside of us that cooperates with him in his battle against us (Matthew 13:25, 39a). This stronghold is our sinful nature which the Bible calls “the flesh.” The one controlled by the flesh is also referred to as natural man, carnal man, or old man.

LESSON AIM: To teach the students about man’s internal enemy called ‘The Flesh.’

TEACHING OBJECTIVES: At the end of this lesson, students should be able to:

• Understand the enemies confronting mankind.
• Know what the flesh entails.
• Recognise when flesh is at work.
• Know the way out of fleshly propensity.

TEACHING PLAN: To achieve the above-stated objectives, the teacher should:

a. Allow the students to recite the memory verse, read the Bible passage, contribute to the discussion, and do class activities and assignments.

b. Allow the Assistant Teacher to see to the well-being of the class, and mark attendance and assignments.

c. Teach the lesson outline, summarize, conclude, evaluate the lesson and give assignments.

v. ………………………………………………………..V22.

LESSON OUTLINES:

1. THE “FLESH” DESCRIBED
2. VICTORY THROUGH GOD

1 THE “FLESH” DESCRIBED

A. “The flesh” is not our body, but the sinful nature that dwells in our body (Romans 8:13).

i. One form of the flesh is ‘self.’ Before we were saved, ‘self’ was on the throne of our hearts (Romans 7:5; Ephesians 2:2-3).

ii. The moment we received Christ as our Saviour, He came to live in us (Galatians 2:20).

iii. ‘Self’ did not move out. Not only is it still there, but it wants to continue its rule in our hearts (Galatians 5:17; Romans 7:18-19).

B. The Bible tells us three things about the flesh:

i. ‘Self’ will never obey God (Romans 8:7).

ii. Sin comes from our sinful nature-the flesh (Mark 7:21-23).

iii. The flesh is Satan’s “stronghold” for sinning (Galatians 5:19-21).

C. Here are some of the ways ‘self’ expresses itself in people:

i. Self-pride: Declares himself as first and above all. He expects people to look up to and honour him (Exodus 5:2).

ii. Self-love: Affirms that the person who should be loved more than anyone else is himself (Luke 12:16-20).

iv. Self-pity: Believes that he is poor and not treated right. Always complaining and never satisfied (Exodus 16:2-3).

v. Self-righteousness: He is quite satisfied with his goodness and morality (1 Kings 19:14).

vi. Self-will: Always wants to have his way. He will do what he wants to do and does not care whether it contradicts God’s will (Judges 14:3).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1: The class should mention other ways ‘self’ can express itself in a believer.

2. VICTORY THROUGH GOD

A. Since no sinner can come into the presence of God, our old sinful life must come to an end for us to become ‘a new person.’ God loves us and through His love, He did three wonderful things for us:

i. He ended our old Self-life and created something entirely new i.e. something that sin cannot touch (Romans 6:6-7).

ii. He made us a new person in Christ. When Christ rose from the dead, we rose with Him as “new persons” in God’s new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17).

iii. He gave Christ to us as our new Master. In Christ, we live to do the will of His Father (John 5:30).

B. As long as we are in our bodies, we can never get rid of self, but we can avoid being ruled by self. As believers, we can take the following steps to subdue ‘self’:

i. Choose to keep ‘self’ on the Cross (Galatians 5:24).

ii. Make Christ our King (2 Corinthians 5:14-15).

iii. Live the Christ-life by bearing the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2: Share with the class, other ways believers can subdue the flesh.

CONCLUSION: Be in control of your flesh with the help of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:16).

QUESTIONS

1. Mention five ways self can express itself.
2. What three things did God do to ensure our victory over self?

EVALUATION: Students should state three ways the flesh manifests in a believer.

CLOSING PRAYER: Father, I receive the grace to subdue the flesh.

ASSIGNMENT: List five things “Self” said in Luke 12:16-19. (2×5=10 Marks).
