Topic: Foundational Truth
Sunday School Manual Lesson No: 18
OPENING PRAYER: Father, teach me your truth in Jesus’ name.
PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE: The teacher should allow the Assistant teacher to review the lesson for the previous week.
MEMORY VERSE: “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” – John 17:17 (KJV)
BIBLE PASSAGE: 2 Timothy 3:13-17 (KJV)
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
LESSON INTRODUCTION: The Greek word fortruth is aletheia, which means to un-hide or hide nothing. It conveys the thought that truth is always there, always open and available for all to see, with nothing being hidden or obscured. The Hebrew word for truth is emeth, which means firmness, constancy, and duration. Such a definition implies an everlasting substance and something that can be relied upon. Truth must originate from somewhere. Ignoring the truth always leads to undesired consequences.
TEACHER’S DIARY

TEACHING OBJECTIVES: At the end of this lesson, students should be able to:
a. Understand the root words translated truth.
b. Know what constitutes the truth.
c. Recognise false doctrine and its constituents.
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 discussion, do class activities and assignment.
b. Allow the Assistant Teacher to see to the well-being of the class, mark attendance and assignment.
c. Teach the lesson outline, summarise, conclude, evaluate the lesson and give assignment to the students.
TEXT REVIEW: 2 Timothy 3:13-17.
In this chapter, Apostle Paul relates the completeness and transformative power of the scripture (The truth). He says:
i. Evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. V13.
ii. But continue thou in the things …………………………………….V14.
iii. And that from a child …………………V15.
iv. All scripture is given …………………..V16.
v. That the man of God …………………..V17.
LESSON OUTLINES:
- THE WORD IS THE TRUTH
- BEWARE OF FALSE DOCTRINES
1. THE WORD IS THE TRUTH
- Jesus made the simple statement I am the truth (John 14:6) and John 1:1, 14 tells us that Jesus is the Word.
- Mathematically, it means:
a. If Jesus=The Truth ……(John 14:6) …………. equation 1.
b. And Jesus=The Word…(John 1:1)…………….. equation 2.
c. Therefore, the Word is the Truth (John 17:17). - The Truth is not relative; rather it is absolute, accurate, and unchangeable (2 Corinthians 13:8; John 6:63).
- The truth of God’s word is divinely inspired and therefore profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16; Psalm 119:9).
- The word gives wisdom and direction (Colossians 3:16; Psalm 119:105).
- God’s word is sharp and powerful (Hebrews 4:12).
- If we know the word of God, we know the truth that will deliver and make us free (Psalm 107:20; John 8:32).
- The word of God is incorruptible: it gives us a solid spiritual foundation in the faith and an inheritance among the saints of God (1 Peter 1:23; Acts 20:32).
CLASS ACTIVITY 1: Students should share some experiences that showed them that the scripture is the truth.
2. BEWARE OF FALSE DOCTRINES
Almost speedily as the word is running with sound doctrines, the devil is also making efforts, as a busybody, to counter the effort of God through his diverse and varying false doctrines such as:
i. That Jesus is not the Son of God (1 John 4:1-3).
ii. That there is no resurrection of the dead (1 Corinthians 15:13-19).
iii. That the days of miracles are over (Hebrews 13:8).
iv. That the days of tithing are over (Malachi 3:10-13).
v. That holiness is impossible (Philippians 4:13; Luke 1:37).
CLASS ACTIVITY 2: The class should discuss more on how to recognise false doctrines and teachers.
CONCLUSION: Time spent in ensuring that the original truth is well known is not a wasted one, after all, we know that Satan is more organised in these last days in the spread of his doctrines.
QUESTIONS:
- How is the word the truth?
- Mention some false doctrines and scriptures that counter them.
EVALUATION: The teacher should ask the students to explain what they understand by the Truth.
CLOSING PRAYER: Father, let me walk in Your truth all the days of my life.
ASSIGNMENT: Mention five truths revealed by Jesus contrary to popular opinion during His earthly ministry (2×5=10 marks).

Without my being blest?
