To begin the session:
Distribute copies of the “Define Authority?” exercise from the activity page, which you can download here. Have learners work in pairs or small groups to complete as indicated. After calling time, have volunteers share their responses with the class.
Lead into Bible study by saying, “Determining a proper response to authority is a problem for some people. Today’s Scripture shows how this problem is resolved for followers of Jesus.”
To engage the learners in a study of the Scripture text:
Distribute copies of the “Main Characters” activity from the activity page. Have learners work in pairs to complete as indicated.
After calling time under the activity, ask the following questions for whole-class discussion: 1–What are the roles of Adam, Jesus, and God the Father as described in 1 Corinthians 15:20-28? 2–How is God’s authority demonstrated and explained in this passage?
