Second Grade, Bible, Set Four

Week One:

• Hymn: When He Cometh
• Memory Verse: John 1:15
• Searching for Treasure: Review section 2; Study 11, Introduction; One of the days of review was about the wise man and the foolish man building their houses on the rock or sand. We read the verses and noticed that the difference between the wise and the foolish was not that the did or didn't hear God's Word, but that they did or didn't do what God said. That led to a story from another book about the verse "be ye doers of the Word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves". We also had a discussion about good fruit and bad fruit stemming from Proverbs 1:31, "eating the fruit of their ways".
