LUKE 15:11-32

Today in class I learned what the Bible says about…

Luke 15:11-32

• When the Pharisees and scribes complained about the love Jesus had for sinners,

He told them a parable to teach them that God loved them and would rejoice if

they repented.

• The parable was about a rich man that had two sons and the younger son took his

inheritance and went to a far off land. He spent all his money on worthless

things.

• When a famine came into the land, the son began to starve. He decided to return

to his father to work as a servant. When the father saw his son returning, he ran

out of his house, hugged him, gave a great feast for him, and accepted him back as

his son.

What does the Bible say:

• What did the younger son want?

• What did he do with the money?

• Why did he go home?

• How did his father receive him?

• Why did the father celebrate?

What does it mean:

• Which person is God like in this story?

• Did the son repent of his sins?

What does it mean to me:

• Will God forgive and accept back a person who has done terrible things?

• When you sin, do you ask God to forgive you?

“And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great

way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell

on his neck and kissed him.”

Luke 15:20
