1 Lesson “Christ's Preaching” Slide 1. You will learn the title of the lesson - What Christ taught - What is the Sermon on the Mount - What treasure cannot be stolen Despite the fact that the words of Christ were spoken almost 2000 years ago, they are important for a person of any time. ABOUT REVENGE Slide 2. Revenge You were offended, hit, called names - this happens often. How to proceed? Give back, take revenge? (on click - revenge) What do you think the word "revenge" means. (on click) Revenge revenge place - delete, return to place, sweep, throw, reimburse. Those. you were offended, you “returned” the insult, called “returned” the offensive word, hit, “returned” the blow It seems that everything is fair. But is it really so? What do you think revenge is like? Slide 3. Revenge To throw the ball. Remember quarreling people who throw accusations at each other (on the click of a quarrel). Only they no longer throw the ball to each other, but evil words. Evil is like dirt, dark and sticky. The one who throws is dirty, and the one who is thrown at. Like playing with a dirty ball. And just as the dirt from the ball stains our hands, clothes, face, so evil is outwardly reflected on our faces with an unpleasant expression (evil faces at the click). And internally a person turns to stone, becomes more and more insensible. But where do we get evil words to throw them to another? From my own heart. Slide 4. Heart Where does evil come from in the heart? We grow it ourselves. (on heart-garden click) The heart is like a garden. It is often said that the heart is the garden of the soul. What we grow is what we get. If the garden is well-groomed, then it gives us a rich harvest (at the click of a blooming garden). And if the garden is abandoned (an abandoned garden by clicking)?

2 That's also our heart. If we follow him, his actions, then the heart becomes kind, pure and soft (at the click of a good heart). From a person with such a heart comes light and joy. And if we allow evil to settle in the heart, then it becomes dark, overgrown with thorns and turns to stone (at the click of an evil heart). Next to such a heart is uncomfortable, cold and scary. How to avoid a fossilized heart? Slide 5. Sermon of Christ (Henrik Olrik. "Sermon on the Mount" from the Church of St. Matthew in Copenhagen). And this is what Jesus Christ taught in his sermons: “Do not resist evil. But whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you." Very few people have been able to live their lives in accordance with this counsel of Christ. But if these few people did not exist, if everyone always avenged themselves, our world would become less human. If you respond with evil for evil, evil will grow. So that the whole life does not turn into a war of all against all, someone must courageously refuse to protect their petty interests, stop accumulating resentment. It is the rejection of revenge that puts a limit to the growth of evil. Therefore, even martial artists say that "The best fight is the one that was avoided!". Slide 6. Resentment in the heart is a weed. How so, you ask? Our grievances are the seeds of evil. Getting into the heart and not meeting resistance, resentment, like a weed, begins to grow very quickly, bloom and scatter further the seeds of evil. Therefore, all grievances must be immediately torn out of the heart (at the click of a pure heart). It is necessary to sow the seeds of love and goodness in the heart, take care of them and protect them from the weeds of evil (at the click of the guard). And for this we have been given a mind. And we must keep him sober, not allow evil feelings to take possession of our heart. A good pure heart will enlighten our minds. Slide 7. Mind and heart. As in a wish to his friends, the famous poet Samuil Yakovlevich Marshak said: Let your mind be kind, And your heart be smart. Slide 8. Botkin M.P. Conversation of Christ with the disciples. The world at the time of Christ glorified victorious emperors and great warriors. Christ revealed to man his wealth

3 inner peace. He said: “What good is it for a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?” Slide 9. Love or loneliness. You can crush everyone, moving to the pinnacle of power. The whole world will be afraid of such a "hero". But there, at the top, he will be very cold because he is surrounded only by fear and hatred. Better that a few people know about you and love you than the whole world will be afraid of you. Slide 10. Choose statements with which you agree. Explain your position. - A bad peace is better than a good quarrel. - If you feel sorry for everyone, no health is enough. - Only weak people take revenge, strong people know how to forgive. ABOUT WEALTH Slide 11. Christ and the rich young man. Christ advised not to see the goal of life in enrichment: “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, but store up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where no moth destroys and where thieves do not steal, for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Slide 12. Heart and earthly wealth. “Treasures in Heaven” is the good that man has done, but which God remembers forever. Such a treasure cannot be stolen or lost. It will not deteriorate, it will not break. Your money or phone may be stolen. Clothes may be torn, the house will be destroyed But the good deed you have done will forever remain yours. Therefore, things should not obscure your neighbor in your heart, a person is more precious than anything in the world. Slide 13. Soul and Judgment. The gospel connects spiritual treasures with "Heaven" because God does not allow the soul to disappear. Even if the body that the soul controlled has ended its life, the soul remains. Wealth, success, glory will all remain in this world: wealth will go to others or decay, glory will fade. But her soul brings her “acquisitions” (good and bad deeds) to Heaven before the face of God. Slide 14. Wealth and joy (M.V. Nesterov. Sick girl). Earthly wealth and joy are not the same thing. If a person is seriously ill, no wealth will bring him joy. Slide 15. Field lily.

4 Christ taught like no one before him: “Look at the lilies of the field, how they grow: neither toil nor spin; but I tell you that even King Solomon in all his glory did not dress like one of them! Don't say: what do we have? or what to drink? Or what to wear? Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all this will be added to you. Do not worry about tomorrow: enough for each day of your concern. Slide 16. Indifference. Anyone who understands these words as permission to do nothing, not to work, not to study, will be wrong. It's just that sometimes caring about your future prevents you from acting like a human today. Like, if I stand up for the weak today, I can incur the wrath of someone big and strong. Such a person decides: in order for me to be good tomorrow, I will live today according to the saying “my hut is on the edge”. This is false wisdom. It is impossible for the sake of tomorrow's fears or hopes to refuse to fulfill one's human duty today. Slide 17. Choose which treasures will never disappear: fame, faith, wealth, beauty, mercy, knowledge, health, success, modesty, strength. SERMON ON THE MOUNT Slide 18. Sermon on the Mount. Carl Heinrich Bloch. These words were spoken by Christ in the Sermon on the Mount. Once Christ ascended a small mountain so that the people who came to Him could better hear His voice. Many were surprised deep meaning and the beauty of the spoken words and became disciples of Christ. It was they who later recorded this sermon in the Gospel. Slide 19. Temple on the site of the Sermon on the Mount. Mount of Bliss. Shvets S.S. Sermon on the Mount. But Christ spoke to people not only about how they should relate to each other. He also talked about the relationship between God and people. He called every person: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." Slide 20. Temple on the site of the Sermon on the Mount. Mount of Bliss. Basin V.P. Sermon on the Mount.

5 He spoke about how, having loved God, the soul can become related to Him already here on earth: "The kingdom of God is within you." Christ gave people the joyful experience of God. Grace, the Holy Spirit in the Gospel is called the Comforter, that is, the one who brings comfort and joy even in trouble. The Comforter, according to the word of Christ, "will be with you forever," that is, during the life of the apostles and in all subsequent centuries of earthly history, but, moreover, beyond its limits, that is, in Divine eternity. This Comforter “the world neither sees nor knows; but you know Him, for He will be in you.” This is not about a book or a package, but about an inner change in a person. If it happened, then, according to the word of Christ, death, having touched the body, will not touch the soul: “He who believes in Me will not see death forever.” THE TESTAMENT OF CHRIST Slide 21. Icon "Crucifixion", Dionysius, 1502 Lebedev K.V. The offering of the Old Testament sacrifice by the high priest. Previously, religious preachers talked about what kind of sacrifices people should bring to God or the gods. A New Testament He spoke about the sacrifice God Himself brings to people and for the sake of people. Christ did not just speak of such a sacrifice, He Himself became this sacrifice. Slide 22. Polenov V.D. Christ and the Sinner (Which of you is without sin). Christ said that God loves people and He Himself became a man in order to be with them. God made man is Jesus Christ. He said that he came into the world not to subdue and punish people, but to serve people. Slide 23. Glazunov I.I. Crucify Him. Some people considered this an insult to their faith in God. In their opinion, God could not create such a miracle and become so close to people. They declared Christ a criminal and began to seek His execution. Christ did not evade judgment. Slide 24. Vasnetsov V.M. Crucified Jesus Christ. He taught not to choose the wide Paths, the spacious gates, Leading into destruction, to enter into the shadow of life through the narrow gates And difficultly narrow paths; Do not condemn, do good, Take care of the mournful, the poor, Bless the enemies who curse And hate to love

6 Lev Mey, 1855 INSERT How the love of Christ healed people Slide 25. Healing of the paralytic in Capernaum. Julius Schnorr von Karolsfeld. Once, when Christ was teaching people, a paralyzed ("relaxed") man was brought to Him. But the house where Christ taught was filled with listeners. And even outside, at the windows and the door, there were so many people that it was impossible to carry a stretcher with a sick person. Then the relatives of the paralytic climbed onto the roof of the house, dismantled the roof, and lowered a stretcher into the hole right at the feet of Christ. And He, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Child, your sins are forgiven you. Get up, take up your bed and go to your house." Slide 26. Healing of the paralytic in Capernaum. And then the previously motionless man got up, took the stretcher on which he lay, and went to his house, glorifying God. Slide 27. Healing of the paralytic in Capernaum (icon). QUESTIONS and assignments: Slide 28. Sermon on the Mount. Engraving by Gustave Doré. 1. Why was the Sermon on the Mount of Jesus Christ given this name? Slide Re-read the story of the Sermon on the Mount. What wealth do Orthodox Christians consider true and eternal? (what can melt an icy heart) Slide 30. Scheme. 3. What exactly in the world becomes more as a result of perfect revenge: good or evil? Explain your answer (answers by clicking on the question). Slide 31. Cross. 4. A cross is depicted on Orthodox books. Christians wear a cross (“cross”) on their chest. For Christians, is it an ornament, a talisman or a sign, a reminder? If a reminder, what about? (by clicking Crucifixion. Nesterenko V.I.)

7 Slide 32. Apostle Paul. Shtan I.V. (The Apostle Paul voluntarily went to his death. They let him go to Judea, but he himself demanded the court of Caesar in order to get to Rome and be able to preach the teachings of Jesus Christ there). 5. Read the Apostle Paul's "hymn to love" (First Corinthians, chapter 13) and tell me how love is manifested? Why does the apostle Paul call for “pursuing love” (striving to love)? (transition to hidden slide 33 by clicking on the “book” button) If I don’t have love, then I’m ringing brass. If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries, and have all knowledge and all faith, so that I can move mountains, but do not have love, then I am nothing. And if I give away all my possessions, but do not have love, it does not profit me at all. Love is long-suffering, merciful, love does not envy, love does not exalt itself, is not proud, does not act outrageously, does not seek its own, is not irritated, does not think evil, does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; covers everything, believes everything, hopes everything, endures everything. Love never ceases, though the prophecies will cease, And now these three remain: faith, hope, love; but the love of them is greater. Reach for love.

You will learn

What did Christ teach

What is the Sermon on the Mount

What treasure cannot be stolen

Christians follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. Despite the fact that the words of Christ were spoken almost 2000 years ago, they are important for a person of any time.

ABOUT REVENGE

You were offended, hit, called names - this happens often. How to proceed? Give back, take revenge?

And Christ taught: “Do not resist evil. But whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you." Very few people have been able to live their lives in accordance with this counsel of Christ. But if these few people did not exist, if everyone always avenged themselves, our world would become less human.

If you respond with evil for evil, evil will grow. So that the whole life does not turn into a war of all against all, someone must courageously refuse to protect their petty interests, stop accumulating resentment. It is the rejection of revenge that puts a limit to the growth of evil. Therefore, even martial artists say that "The best fight is the one that was avoided!".

The world at the time of Christ glorified victorious emperors and great warriors. Christ revealed to man the wealth of his inner world. He said: “What good is it for a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?”

You can crush everyone, moving to the pinnacle of power. The whole world will be afraid of such a "hero". But there, at the top, he will be very cold because he is surrounded only by fear and hatred. Better that a few people know about you and love you than the whole world will be afraid of you.

ABOUT WEALTH

Christ advised not to see the goal of life in enrichment: “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, but store up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where no moth destroys and where thieves do not steal, for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

“Treasures in Heaven” is the good that man has done, but which God remembers forever. Such a treasure cannot be stolen. Your money or phone may be stolen. But the good deed you have done will always be yours.

Earthly wealth and joy are not the same thing. If a person is seriously ill, no wealth will bring him joy.

Christ taught like no one before Him: “Look at the lilies of the field, how they grow: neither toil nor spin; but I tell you that even King Solomon in all his glory did not dress like one of them! Don't say: what do we have? or what to drink? Or what to wear? Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all this will be added to you. Do not worry about tomorrow: enough for each day of your concern.

Anyone who understands these words as permission to do nothing, not to work, not to study, will be wrong. It's just that sometimes caring about your future prevents you from acting like a human today. Like, if I stand up for the weak today, I can incur the wrath of someone big and strong. Such a person decides: in order for me to be good tomorrow, I will live today according to the saying “my hut is on the edge”.

This is false wisdom. It is impossible for the sake of tomorrow's fears or hopes to refuse to fulfill one's human duty today.

THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT

These words were spoken by Christ in Sermon on the Mount. Once Christ ascended a small mountain so that the people who came to Him could better hear His voice. Many were surprised by the deep meaning and beauty of the spoken words and became disciples of Christ. It was they who later recorded this sermon in the Gospel.

But Christ spoke to people not only about how they should relate to each other. He also talked about the relationship between God and people. He called every person: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind."

He spoke about the fact that, having loved God, the soul can become related to Him already here on earth: "The Kingdom of God is within you." Christ gave people the joyful experience of God. Grace, the Holy Spirit in the Gospel is called the Comforter, that is, the one who brings comfort and joy even in trouble. The Comforter, according to the word of Christ, “will be with you forever,” that is, during the life of the apostles and in all subsequent centuries of earthly history, but, moreover, beyond its limits, that is, in Divine eternity. This Comforter “the world neither sees nor knows; but you know Him, for He will be in you.” This is not about a book or a package, but about an inner change in a person. If it happened, then, according to the word of Christ, death, having touched the body, will not touch the soul: “He who believes in Me will not see death forever.”

TESTAMENT OF CHRIST

Previously, religious preachers talked about what kind of sacrifices people should bring to God or the gods. And the New Testament spoke about what kind of sacrifice God Himself brings to people and for the sake of people. Christ did not just speak of such a sacrifice, He Himself became this sacrifice.

Christ said that God loves people and He Himself became a man in order to be with them. God became man - that's what it is Jesus Christ. He said that he came into the world not to subdue and punish people, but to serve people.

Some people considered this an insult to their faith in God. In their opinion, God could not create such a miracle and become so close to people. They declared Christ a criminal and began to seek His execution. Christ did not evade judgment.

INSERT. How the love of Christ healed people

Once, when Christ was teaching people, a paralyzed ("relaxed") man was brought to Him. But the house where Christ taught was filled with listeners. And even outside, at the windows and the door, there were so many people that it was impossible to carry a stretcher with a sick person. Then the relatives of the paralytic climbed onto the roof of the house, dismantled the roof, and lowered a stretcher into the hole right at the feet of Christ. And He, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Child, your sins are forgiven you. Get up, take up your bed and go to your house." And then the previously motionless man got up, took the stretcher on which he lay, and went to his house, glorifying God.

Year 4 Lesson 6 What did Christ teach?

You will learn
What did Christ teach
- What is the Sermon on the Mount
What treasure cannot be stolen

FIRST WE THINK FOR YOURSELF
1. You know teachers of the Russian language, labor, physical education. Can a teacher be good?
2. What do you think is the most important thing your mothers want to teach you?

Christians believe in the teachings of Jesus Christ. Despite the fact that the words of Christ were spoken 2000 years ago, they are important for a person of any time.

ABOUT REVENGE
You were offended, hit, called names - this happens often. How to proceed? Give back, take revenge?
And Christ taught: “Do not resist evil. But whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you." Very few people have been able to live their lives in accordance with this counsel of Christ. But if these few people did not exist, if everyone always avenged themselves, our world would become less human.
If you respond with evil for evil, evil will grow. So that the whole life does not turn into a war of all against all, someone must courageously refuse to protect their petty interests, stop accumulating resentment. It is the rejection of revenge that puts a limit to the growth of evil. Therefore, even martial artists say that "The best fight is the one that was avoided!".
The world at the time of Christ glorified victorious emperors and great warriors. Christ revealed to man the wealth of his inner world. He said: “What good is it for a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?”
You can crush everyone, moving to the pinnacle of power. The whole world will be afraid of such a "hero". But there, at the top, he will be very cold because he is surrounded only by fear and hatred. Better that a few people know about you and love you than the whole world will be afraid of you.

ABOUT WEALTH
Christ advised not to see the goal of life in enrichment: “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, but store up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where no moth destroys and where thieves do not steal, for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
"Treasures in Heaven" is the good that lives in your heart. Your money or phone may be stolen. But how to steal love, wisdom, faith from the heart?
Earthly wealth and joy are not the same thing. If a person is seriously ill, no wealth will bring him joy.
About spiritual treasures, the Gospel says that they are "in Heaven" (and not just in the soul). This is because God does not allow the soul to disappear. Even if the body that the soul controlled has ended its life, the soul remains. But she brings her "acquisitions" (good and bad) to Heaven - before the face of God.
Christ taught like no one before Him: “Look at the lilies of the field, how they grow: neither toil nor spin; but I tell you that even King Solomon in all his glory did not dress like one of them! Don't say: what do we have? or what to drink? Or what to wear? Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all this will be added to you. Do not worry about tomorrow: enough for each day of your concern.
Anyone who understands these words as permission to do nothing, not to work, not to study, will be wrong. It's just that sometimes caring about your future prevents you from acting like a human today. Like, if I stand up for the weak today, I can incur the wrath of someone big and strong. Such a person decides: in order for me to be good tomorrow, I will live today according to the saying “my hut is on the edge”.
This is false wisdom. It is impossible for the sake of tomorrow's fears or hopes to refuse to fulfill one's human duty today.

THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT
These words were spoken by Christ in the Sermon on the Mount. Once Christ ascended a small mountain so that the people who came to Him could better hear His voice. Many were surprised by the deep meaning and beauty of the spoken words and became disciples of Christ. It was they who later recorded this sermon in the Gospel.
But Christ spoke to people not only about how they should relate to each other. He also talked about the relationship between God and people. He called every person: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind."
He spoke about the fact that, having loved God, the soul can become related to Him already here on earth: "The Kingdom of God is within you." Christ gave people the joyful experience of God. Grace, the Holy Spirit in the Gospel is called the Comforter, that is, the one who brings comfort and joy even in trouble. The Comforter, according to the word of Christ, “will be with you forever,” that is, during the life of the apostles and in all subsequent centuries of earthly history, but, moreover, beyond its limits, that is, in Divine eternity. This Comforter “the world neither sees nor knows; but you know Him, for He will be in you.” This is not about a book or a package, but about an inner change in a person. If it happened, then, according to the word of Christ, death, having touched the body, will not touch the soul: “He who believes in Me will not see death forever.”
The most unusual thing about the gospel was that earlier religious preachers talked about what kind of sacrifices people should bring to God or the gods. And Christ spoke about what kind of sacrifice God Himself brings to people and for the sake of people. Christ not only spoke of such a sacrifice, He Himself was that sacrifice.
Christ said that God loves people and He Himself became a man in order to be with them. God made man is Jesus Christ. He said that he came into the world not to subdue and punish people, but to serve people.
Some people considered this an insult to their faith in God. In their opinion, God could not create such a miracle and become so close to people. They declared Christ a criminal and began to seek His execution. Christ did not evade judgment.

INSERT How the Love of Christ Healed People
Once, when Christ was teaching people, a paralyzed ("relaxed") man was brought to Him. But the house where Christ taught was filled with people. And even outside, at the windows and the door, there were so many people that it was impossible to carry a stretcher with a sick person. Then the relatives of the paralytic climbed onto the roof of the house, dismantled the roof, and lowered a stretcher into the hole right at the feet of Christ. And He, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Child, your sins are forgiven you. Get up, take up your bed and go to your house." And then the previously motionless man got up, took the stretcher on which he lay, and went to his house, glorifying God.

INSERT Into the Treasury of the Russian Language
Again about Orthodoxy
The word orthodoxy is a translation of the compound Greek word orthodoxy. The first of the Greek roots is familiar to you from the word spelling. Ortho means "correct, right". But the word doxa in Greek has two meanings. One of them is already familiar to us: "glorification." The second meaning is “teaching”, “opinion”. This means that the word orthodoxy, like the word orthodoxy, also has a connotation: “correct faith”, “correct teaching”. Christians believe that the teachings of Christ are true. Therefore, the expression Orthodox Christian is more accurate than just the word Orthodox.

QUESTIONS and tasks:
1. Why was the Sermon on the Mount of Jesus Christ given this name?
2. Re-read the story of the Sermon on the Mount. What wealth do Orthodox Christians consider true and eternal?
3. What exactly in the world becomes more as a result of perfect revenge: good or evil? Explain your answer.
4. A cross is depicted on Orthodox books. Christians wear a cross (“cross”) on their chest. For Christians, is it an ornament, a talisman or a sign, a reminder? If a reminder, what about?

Let's talk heart to heart. Do you know examples from life, fairy tales, books and films when wealth did not bring happiness? Tell about these cases.

What did Christ teach

What is the Sermon on the Mount

What treasure cannot be stolen

Christians follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. Despite the fact that the words of Christ were spoken almost 2000 years ago, they are important for a person of any time.

III Work on a new topic.

You were offended, hit, called names - this happens often. How to proceed? Give back, take revenge? (on click - revenge)

What do you think the word "revenge" means? (on click) Revenge - revenge - place - delete, return to place, sweep, throw, compensate (st \u003d u). Those. offended you - you “returned” the insult, called you names - “returned” the offensive word, hit - “returned” the blow ... It seems that everything is fair. But is it really so?

What do you think revenge is like?

Slide 3. Revenge

To throw the ball. Remember quarreling people who throw accusations at each other (on click - a quarrel). Only they no longer throw the ball to each other, but evil words. Evil is like dirt, dark and sticky. The one who throws is dirty, and the one who is thrown at. Like playing with a dirty ball. And just as the dirt from the ball stains our hands, clothes, face ... so evil is outwardly reflected on our faces with an unpleasant expression (at the click - angry faces). And internally a person turns to stone, becomes more and more insensible.

But where do we get evil words to throw them to another? From my own heart.

Slide 4. Heart

Where is the evil in the heart? We grow it ourselves.

(on click - heart-garden) The heart is like a garden. It is often said that the heart is the garden of the soul. What we grow is what we get. If the garden is well-groomed, then it gives us a rich harvest (by clicking - a flowering garden). And if the garden is abandoned (by clicking - an abandoned garden)?

This is also our heart. If we follow him, his actions, then the heart becomes kind, pure and soft (at the click - a good heart). From a person with such a heart comes light and joy. And if we allow evil to settle in the heart, then it becomes dark, overgrown with thorns and turns to stone (an evil heart at a click). Next to such a heart is uncomfortable, cold and scary.

How to avoid a fossilized heart?

Slide 5. Sermon of Christ (Henrik Olrik. "Sermon on the Mount" from the Church of St. Matthew in Copenhagen).

And this is what Jesus Christ taught in his sermons: “Do not resist evil. But whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you." Very few people have been able to live their lives in accordance with this counsel of Christ. But if these few people did not exist, if everyone always avenged themselves, our world would become less human.

Slide 6. Resentment in the heart is a weed.

How so, you ask?

Our grievances are the seeds of evil. Getting into the heart and not meeting resistance, resentment, like a weed, begins to grow very quickly, bloom and scatter further the seeds of evil. Therefore, all grievances must be immediately torn out of the heart (at a click - a pure heart). It is necessary to sow the seeds of love and kindness in the heart, take care of them and protect them from the weeds of evil (at the click of a guard). And for this we have been given a mind. And we must keep him sober, not allow evil feelings to take possession of our heart. A good pure heart will enlighten our minds.

Slide 7. Mind and heart.

ABOUT WEALTH

Slide 11. Christ and the rich young man.

Slide 12. Heart and earthly wealth.

“Treasures in Heaven” is the good that man has done, but which God remembers forever. Such a treasure cannot be stolen or lost. It will not deteriorate, it will not break ... Money or a phone can be stolen from you. Clothes can be torn, the house will be destroyed ... But the good deed you have done will forever remain yours. Therefore, things should not obscure your neighbor in your heart - a person is more precious than anything in the world.

Slide 13. Soul and Judgment.

The gospel connects spiritual treasures with "Heaven" because God does not allow the soul to disappear. Even if the body that the soul controlled has ended its life, the soul remains. Wealth, success, fame - everything will remain in this world: wealth will go to others or decay, glory will fade. But their "gains" (good and bad deeds) she the soul brings to Heaven - before the face of God.

Slide 14. Wealth and joy (M.V. Nesterov. Sick girl).

Earthly wealth and joy are not the same thing. If a person is seriously ill, no wealth will bring him joy.

slide 17.

Choose which treasures will never disappear: fame, faith, wealth, beauty, mercy, knowledge, health, success, modesty, strength.

THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT

Christ preached his doctrine to people on a small mountain. It was here that he told the audience that revenge can lead to strife and wars, that the main wealth of a person is his soul and spiritual qualities, that it is impossible to live according to the principle “my hut is on the edge”. This sermon was called the Sermon on the Mount.

It was in the Sermon on the Mount that Jesus said that by following his commandments, people would find God in their souls, i.e. peace of mind, love, peace, joy, kindness and much more that is so important for everyone. In other words, every person who accepts the teachings of Christ will find the Kingdom of God within himself.

And then God will live in the soul of everyone - faith, love, justice, compassion, mercy, hope, sympathy and much more, which is meant by His name. The main thing, while living on earth, is to do good deeds and do good deeds.

Figuratively, it can be represented as follows: the soul of a person living according to the laws of goodness (that is, following the teachings of Christ) is a fragrant bright flower, and God - human qualities - is a beautiful butterfly living on this flower.

IV Reading and discussion of the text of the textbook paragraph No. 6 “Christ and his

Commandments"

After reading the semantic passages of the text, the students formulate (the teacher helps), and then write down in the notebook the main commandments of Christ, as well as the commandments of the beatitude of the Sermon on the Mount:

As you would like to be treated, so do others.

Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you.

(Here you can use the video clip of the film "The Passion of the Christ" by Mel Gibson)

There is no greater love than if one lays down his life for his friends.Children give examples from the history of the Great Patriotic War, modern life - events in Beslan, Krymsk.

If you respond with evil for evil, evil will grow. It is the rejection of revenge that puts a limit to the growth of evil. Evil can only be overcome with good.

Do not collect wealth on earth, collect it in the heart.

Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and everything will be added to you. It is impossible for the sake of tomorrow's fears or hopes to refuse to fulfill one's human duty today.

"The kingdom of God is within you." Christ gave people the joyful experience of God.You can use a fragment of Christ's Sermon on the Mount from the film "Jesus of Nazareth" by F. Zefirelli

VII Summing up the lesson.

Christ condemns revenge. Not only is the ancient commandment "Thou shalt not kill" sacred, but unjust anger is a sin.

Is it permissible for a Christian and any person to take part in a war? What do you think?

Although war is evil, one cannot refuse to defend one's Fatherland, one's Motherland."for there is no greater love than if a man lay down his life for his friends"(John 15:13)

Write the main position in a notebook

How do you understand the meaning of what is written? What do you mean by "inner wealth of a person"?

Do you think that those people who consider the acquisition of wealth, the accumulation of treasures, to live in luxury as the main goal in life, are right? Justify your opinion.

Based on the pictures on the slide, what do you think is condemned by Jesus? Why?

(The Apostle Paul voluntarily went to his death. He was released in Judea, but he himself demanded the court of Caesar in order to get to Rome and be able to preach the teachings of Jesus Christ there).

5. Read the Apostle Paul's "hymn to love" (First Corinthians, chapter 13) and tell me how love is manifested? Why does the apostle Paul call for “pursuing love” (striving to love)?

(transition to hidden slide 33 - by clicking on the "book" button)

If I do not have love, then I am ringing copper. If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries, and have all knowledge and all faith, so that I can move mountains, but do not have love, then I am nothing. And if I give away all my possessions, but do not have love, it does not profit me at all.

Love is long-suffering, merciful, love does not envy, love does not exalt itself, is not proud, does not act outrageously, does not seek its own, is not irritated, does not think evil, does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; covers everything, believes everything, hopes everything, endures everything. Love never ceases, though the prophecies will cease, And now these three remain: faith, hope, love; but the love of them is greater. Reach for love.

IX Summing up the questions in the textbook

Conclusions : ( do together with the guys orally)

The New Testament spoke about what kind of sacrifice God Himself brings to people and for the sake of people. Christ did not just speak of such a sacrifice, He Himself became this sacrifice.

Jesus Christ not only showed people an example of voluntary sacrificial love, but also the primacy of the spiritual, inner world over the world of external values.

The cross is a symbol of Christ's sacrificial love and a reminder to Christians to bear their own life's cross to the end and do good to people.
