Wednesday Night Class
Teachers
Lesson Summary
The class began by defining God’s holiness as being set apart, dedicated, and sanctified, referencing Psalm 99:3 to underscore that even God’s name is holy. The teacher emphasized that recognizing this holiness leads to genuine obedience, which the class described as the true expression of love for God. Using practical examples, the lesson illustrated that obedience to God mirrors how we respect authority in family and work settings.\n\nThe discussion then shifted to God’s justice, quoting Revelation 16:7 and Matthew 25’s depiction of the final judgment where Christ separates people as a shepherd separates sheep from goats. The teacher highlighted humanity’s flawed judgments—whether in everyday interactions, hiring choices, or Supreme Court decisions—showing how personal biases and cultural backgrounds affect outcomes. In contrast, God’s judgments are presented as true and righteous, immutable, and executed through Jesus Christ, who intercedes for believers. The central message urged participants to align their lives with God’s holy and just character, to evaluate their judgments honestly, and to trust in Christ’s role in the ultimate judgment.
