j g bellettThe Moral Glories of Our Lord -  A devotion regarding the Moral Glory in the character of the Lord Jesus.  All of his life went up to God as a sacrifice of sweet savour. Every expression of Himself in every measure, however small, and in whatever relationship it was rendered, was incense to his father.  Whatever Adam lacked, the Lord fulfilled completely in his perfect life.  J G Bellett was a brother from the United Kingdeom who wrote his works in the 1800's. 
Sunday School Lesson 120 Jacob and Esau - the blessing stolen Print E-mail

Lesson: 120 Lesson Name: Jacob and Esau: The Blessing
Theme: Opportunity: A Turning Point / Choices

Reading: Genesis 27:1-40

Memory Verse: Prov. 10:22
Memory Verse Text: The blessing of the Lord . . . maketh rich.

Point 1: Isaac as old and blind physically is a picture of his failing spiritual perception.  The time was near that he would die; he wanted the blessing for Esau.
Point 2: Rebekah knew that Jacob valued the blessing, so a plan was developed to rob Esau of its benefit.
Point 3: Even though Jacob lied, cheated his brother, and deceived his father, the story shows that God's grace is bestowed on the most undeserving person because he longed for it.
Point 4: Make the class go to the Hebrews 12:17 to make a final comment regarding Esau's remorse and what God says about Esau's loss.

Notes: Make it clear that Jacob's lies and deceit were SIN.
