To begin the session:
Begin the session with a round or two of the traditional game, “20 Questions.” Have someone think of a famous person. The remainder of the class can ask up to 20 questions to determine the identity of that person. All questions must be able to be answered “yes” or “no.”
Play the game for about five minutes. Then lead into Bible study by saying, “There are a lot of people who have accomplished great things. In this game, we identified them by asking questions about positions they have held and their accomplishments. In our Bible study today, we will examine how John describes the unique position and accomplishments of Jesus.”
To engage the learners in a study of the Scripture text:
Download the “No One Like Jesus!” worksheet here. Make copies for every class member. Distribute the worksheets and pencils or pens. Allow class members to work individually or in small groups to match the images from the text to the correct explanations. The expected answers are: 1=f, 2=a, 3=c, 4=e, 5=d, 6=g, 7=b.
After class members have completed this exercise, have them share their answers. Use the lesson commentary to explain each section of the text more fully as necessary.
