TEXT: 1 P eter 2:1-10 Heb 10:23 MEMORY VERSE : Rom 1:17,
10:17
OBJECTIVES: this topic focuses on building your
relationship (faith and belief in Christ)a nd walk with Christ.
Now that you are sure of your salvation, it’s good and
necessary for you to grow in Him. 1 Pet 2:2
JUSTIFICATION Romans 4:6-8, Acts 13:39
SJustification is the description of the event that took
place immediately after salvatione xperience. Therefore, it is

penitent that a person be saved before passing through this
lesson. (briefly talk about the saving grace of Jesus Christ
and lead the unsaved people to take steps into salvation).
Justification is the act of God where those who put their
faith in Christ are declared righteous in His eyes as one who
is without sin and free from guilt and punishment. God is
the only and just God. He would never condone sin. He
punishes sin (Ezekiel 18:20). As found in Roman 2:13, the
doer of the law faithfully. Th e only man who could do this
is Jesus Christ. He gained the righteousness of Jesus Christ.
He gained the righteousness and He gives it s a gift to
whatsoever believes in Him. Thus, God sees the person in
the righteousness of Jesus Christ (Roman 4:5)
24 9FELLOWSHIP
For our faith to be built in and on Him, fellowship is the
channel or mean by which we build our faith Fellowship, as
we know, is a means of relating and communion with us
every time as He used to do with our fore fathers in the
Garden of Eden .
v PRAYER (C OMMUNICATION WITH GOD) Luke 11:1 -10,
Eph 1:16-23, 3:14 -21
As a Christian, we don’t need to look at prayer as one way
thing but a communication with God, Prayers should not
only center to needs but to commune with Him. Importance
of prayer to believers is numerous but to mention a few are:
it is a command from the Lord and also his appointed ways
to receive our blessings (Luke 18:1, James 4:2, John 16:24),
to overcome the devil and his wiles (James 5:13. Psalm
116:3-5), reveals revelation (Dan 9: 21 -23). Prayer is a means
of communication, dialogue (not monologue), sharing,
blissful harmony and communion with the Father. 1 Cor
14:15.
v THE WORD OF GOD 1Pet 2:2, Heb 4:12, Rom 10 :17
2Tim 3:16 MSG “Every part of the scriptures is God -breathed and
useful one w ay or another —showin g us truth, explaining our
rebellion, correcting our mistakes, training us to live God’s way.”
The Bible is God’s holy word, it is His message to us and it is the
most important book in the whole world. like in 1 Pet 2:2. A
convert is likened to a newborn baby; who requires constant
intakes of God’s word. A believer’s growth and maturity lies so
much on his/her study, meditation, devotion, confession and
acting on God’s word.
