Divisions (run-on sentence OK, direct verbiage from Scripture/Principles are Aims for each Division – a truth about God, a truth about man, a truth about God’s relationship to man; a sin to avoid, promise to trust, example to follow, command to obey, truth to believe):

1.The last will be first and the first will be last (19:30-20:16)

Principle:  God is generous.

2.Jesus tells He will be condemned to death and raised, to sit at His right and left in the kingdom is not for Him to grant, and whoever wants to be great must be a servant (20:17-28)

Principle:  God came to earth to serve.

3.Jesus heals two blind men, sends two disciples to bring a donkey and colt, enters Jerusalem, and goes to Bethany to spend the night(20:29-21:17)

Principle:  God came to fulfill prophecy, heal and receive praise.

 

Subject Sentence (10-word sentence with proper structure showing exactly where you are in Scripture):

Jesus spoke about first being last, service, and entered Jerusalem.

 

Aim (“To Cause My Audience To…” Know, See, Learn, Understand, etc.):

TCMATK Jesus sets the example for His people to serve generously.

 

Application (not yes or no question.  Meant to bring about heart change):

1.What could you change in your thinking to better align with God’s teaching on the “first will be last”?

2.Where is Jesus calling you to serve?

3.What has Jesus done lately for which you want to praise Him?

 

The Big Idea (author’s main purpose in writing; the one thing all the other things in the passage is about; if you couldn’t talk about it, you would still understand the passage is trying to convey this):

Service

Homiletics Training: Content

Homiletics .   By definition, “homiletic” is the art of preaching or writing sermons.   I think we would all agree that our pastors study the Bible thoroughly to deliver sermons every Sunday to their congregations.   The beautiful news is that every child of God can use this discipline to study the Bible for themselves. As a member of Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) Leadership, part of my required preparation each week is to prepare homiletics for the passage we are studying.   BSF offers an engaging seminar on how to use this method to study the Scriptures.   I’ve taken the seminar several times under two different leaders and I’ve learned something new every time I’ve attended.   I’ve also been doing the process of homiletics for over ten years and I can say that there is no better teacher than the Holy Spirit in this process!   So keep practicing.   Keep sharing and discussing.   I’ve been posting my homiletics on this blog for quite a...
