Book of Mormon [JACOB 5-7] Insights

“The Lord Labors with Us”

April 8 - April 14, 2024

WEEK 15: SUMMARY

=================

Lesson Summary:

Jacob’s final teachings will focus our attention squarely on the Atonement of Jesus Christ. In Jacob 5, he’ll teach us Zenos’ allegory of the Olive Tree to help us understand the depth and infinite scope of God’s love for His children. Next, in chapter 6, he’ll urge us to be reconciled to God through Christ in this life and not procrastinate the day of our repentance. In chapter 7, Jacob we teach us how to be unshaken in the face of fierce opposition when he encounters Sherem, the first Anti-Christ of the Book of Mormon.

This week we’ll open up conversations about the Olive Tree symbolism by creating our own paper-bag vineyard. Next, we’ll balance a trio of knives to study the tools Jacob used to know and defend truth. Finally, we’ll play a new Kahoot to help us review the first 3 books of the Book of Mormon and appreciate the steadying force of scripture study in our lives.

1) “I will liken thee … unto a tame olive tree”: Vineyard Craft

2) “He had hope to shake me from the faith”: Triangle of Truth Knives

3) “They searched the Scriptures”: Kahoot Challenge #1
