Lesson Note on Christian Religious Studies (CRS) JSS1 Second term 

 

Below are the 2022 complete JSS1 Second Term Christian Religious StudiesLesson Note 

Week One: Revision

INTRODUCTION:

This week, we would be doing a revision of all that we learned in the previous term.

Week Two: Call to Service

INTRODUCTION:

It is a direct appeal. Religion is practical, and preaching must be practical. We must not be

satisfied with the exposition of truth. We must aim at persuasion such as shall affect the

conduct of men. For this purpose there is room for direct exhortation. Men are ready to admit

the truth of propositions which lie outside the sphere of their own experience.

The difficult matter is to translate these into principles of conduct and to apply them to

individual lives. The Bible is sent for this ultimate purpose. As a message from God the Word

of God is not merely a revelation of truth; it is supremely a call from the Father to His

children. God is now calling directly to us by the undying voice of Scripture, by providence,

by His Spirit in our consciences (Revelation 22:17). To learn more, click here.

 

Week Three: Joseph responded to call to service

INTRODUCTION:

From a young age, Joseph believed God had destined him for greatness. In dreams, God

assured Joseph that he would rise to a position of leadership over his parents and brothers

(Gen. 37:5-11). From Joseph’s point of view, these dreams were evidence of divine blessing,

rather than his own ambition. From his brothers’ point of view, however, the dreams were

further manifestations of the unfair privilege that Joseph enjoyed as the favorite son of their

father, Jacob (Gen. 37:3-4). Being sure that we are in the right does not absolve us from

empathizing with others who may not share that same view. Good leaders strive to foster

cooperation rather than envy. Joseph’s failure to recognize this put him at severe odds with

his brothers. TTo learn more, click here

 

Week Four: The call of Moses

INTRODUCTION:

Although Moses was a Hebrew, he was raised in Egypt’s royal family as the grandson of

Pharaoh. His revulsion to injustice erupted into a lethal attack on an Egyptian man he found

beating a Hebrew worker. This act came to Pharaoh’s attention, so Moses fled for safety and

became a shepherd in Midian, a region several hundred miles east of Egypt on the other side

of the Sinai Peninsula.

We do not know exactly how long he lived there, but during that time he married and had a

son. In addition, two important things happened. The king in Egypt died, and the Lord heard

the cry of his oppressed people and remembered his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and

Jacob (Exod. 2:23-25). This act of remembering did not mean that God had forgotten about

his people. It signalled that he was about to act on their behalf.[1] For that, he would call

Moses. To learn more, click here

 

Week Five: The call of Joshua

INTRODUCTION:

6 “Be strong and courageous, for you shall give this people possession of the land which I

swore to their fathers to give them. 7 Only be strong and very courageous; be careful to do

according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the

right or to the left, so that you may have success wherever you go.

8 This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and

night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will

make your way prosperous, and then you will have success. 9 Have I not commanded you?

Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with

you wherever you go.” To learn more, click here

Week Six: Call to Obedience: Abraham’s obedience to God’s call

INTRODUCTION:

‘By faith Abraham’, surely describes the action of faith in progress in his life as he sets out to

obey the Lord.

There are three things that stand out in the above text and they are as follows:

1) A Place

2) A Promise

3) A Persuasion

You and I scripturally know that this ‘place’ is indeed the Land of Canaan, better known today

as the Land of Israel that the Lord gave as an inheritance to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and

his descendants. The showing forth of faith began with Abram as he travelled approximately

1,500 miles, and we are told that at that time he ‘obeyed’ yet ‘not knowing whither he went.

It is one thing to start on a trip knowing right well where you are going and the distance that

you must travel, it is yet another thing to start your journey not knowing the ultimate

destination and still by faith you keep keeping on, why? Because the Lord commanded you.

Week Seven: Relationship in the family

INTRODUCTION:

‘Family’ is a single word, with many different meanings. People have many ways of defining a

family and what being a part of a family means to them. Families differ in terms of economic,

cultural, social, and many other facets, but what every family has in common is that the

people who call it a family are making clear that those people are important in some way to

the person calling them his family. To learn more, click here

 

Week Eight: Relationship in the school community

INTRODUCTION:

When used by educators, the term school community typically refers to the various

individuals, groups, businesses, and institutions that are invested in the welfare and vitality of

a public school and its community—i.e., the neighborhoods and municipalities served by the

school.

In many contexts, the term encompasses the school administrators, teachers, and staff

members who work in a school; the students who attend the school and their parents and

families; and local residents and organizations that have a stake in the school’s success, such

as school-board members, city officials, and elected representatives; businesses,

organizations, and cultural institutions; and related organizations and groups such as parent-

teacher associations, “booster clubs,” charitable foundations, and volunteer school-

improvement committees (to name just a few).  To learn more, click here

 

Week Nine: Relationship in the church

INTRODUCTION:

A good relationship is characterized by thoughtfulness, sensitivity, loyalty, confidentiality,

and kindness (Eph. 4:32). A pastor can have deep convictions and preach firmly without being

brutal. Jesus’ example demonstrates that pastors earn their right to lead by being a servant.

Here are five things a pastor can do to show that he cares about his people.

1. Visit:

Many pastors serve in churches where they could visit every member in his or her home

every year. To learn more, click here

Week Ten: Revision

Week Eleven: Examination

Afterwards, we would write an examination, which would test our knowledge of what has

been taught so far.
