Supplement the ideas provided here with some of your own. Plan ways to identify the doctrine for the children and help them understand it and apply it in their lives.Ask yourself, "What will the children do to learn, and how can I help them feel the Spirit?"
"The Family: A Proclamation to the World" came from God to help my family.
Identify the doctrine: Show the children pictures of the Ten Commandments and the scriptures. Ask, "Where did these come from?" Explain that they came from God through His prophets to help us know what to do. Show the children a copy of "The Family: A Proclamation to the World" and explain that it came from God through His latter-day prophets to help our families.
Encourage understanding (singing songs): Explain that not all families are the same, but each family is important; God wants all families to be happy and return to Him. Give a wordstrip with a different sentence from the family proclamation to each class. Invite the children to think of a song that relates to their sentence. Invite the classes to take turns reading their wordstrips aloud and leading the other children in singing the song they have chosen. Testify that our families will be blessed as we follow the teachings in the family proclamation.
Week 2: Marriage between a man and a woman is essential to God's plan.
Encourage understanding (hearing and telling a story): Tell the story of Adam being the first man on the earth. Have a child read Genesis 2:18 as the children listen for what Heavenly Father said ("It is not good that the man should be alone"). Explain that He created Eve, who would marry Adam. Have a child read Genesis 3:20 as the children listen for what Adam called his wife (Eve). Next have a child read Genesis 1:28 as they listen for what...
Explain that without Adam and Eve's marriage, God's plan for His children to come to earth would not have happened. Invite a few children to retell the story.
Encourage application (seeing pictures): Explain that Heavenly Father's commandment for a man and a woman to be married and have a family is just as important today as it was when Adam and Eve were on the earth. Show pictures of families and let the children point out the man, the woman, and the children.
Week 3: When family life is founded on the teachings of Jesus Christ, we can be happy.
Identify the doctrine (seeing pictures): Invite a child to hold a picture of a family. Ask what we should found (or base) our family life on so we can be happy. Invite another child to hold a picture of Jesus Christ. Explain that when family life is founded on the teachings of Jesus Christ, we can be happy.
Encourage understanding and application (making lists): Display a picture of Jesus Christ on the board, and write "Teachings of Jesus" beneath it. Divide the children into three groups. Give each group one of the following wordstrips and scripture references: "Follow the Commandments" (John 14:15), "Help Others" (Mosiah 2:17), and "Show Love to Everyone" (John 13:34). Ask the children to read their assigned scripture and then discuss in their groups ways they can follow that teaching of Jesus in their families. Invite each group to put their wordstrip on the board and tell the other children what they discussed. After each group has shared their ideas, discuss how following that teaching of Jesus can help our families be happy.
Week 4: Successful families work together.
Identify the doctrine (participating in an object lesson): Invite four children to come to the front of the room. Have each child hold the end of one piece of string while you hold the other ends of all four strings.…

" (John 15:26-27) John explicitly tells those who have come to walk in this way of knowing to pursue this knowledge in others. In his set of three epistles, which are held up with the apostle's other writings as central doctrines to the humanistic elements of Christianity, John delivers a summation of the relationship between man's regard of God and his treatment of his fellow which points to the morality underscoring
" It caused missionaries to deal with peoples of other cultures and even Christian traditions -- including the Orthodox -- as inferior. God's mission was understood to have depended upon human efforts, and this is why we came to hold unrealistic universalistic assumptions. Christians became so optimistic that they believed to be able to correct all the ills of the world." (Vassiliadis, 2010) Missiology has been undergoing changes in recent years
Therefore, we may conclude that the speaker has some cognitive function from the structure of the speech, even if it is based on a very basic set of language rules (Samarin 1972 120).

He indicates that even what Paul writes to people through his epistles is the Word of God. He is (again presciently) aware that the words might be twisted and misunderstood). But he has no doubt that Paul's writings (more prolific that his own were) as well as his own are divinely inspired Scripture.

religion entered the 18th Century and with it a revival. The growth of the revival was overwhelming.More people attended church than in previous centuries. Churches from all denominations popped up throughout established colonies and cities within the United States. Religious growth also spread throughout England, Wales and Scotland.

Scholars like Borg, Crossan, Meier, and Sanders reach into Torah or into Gnostic and other extracanonical traditions such as Greek novels to draw comparisons and contrasts. The range is comprehensive, from Greco-Roman sources to Jewish and other Mediterranean sources. Often the picture of Jesus that emerges is a construction based on social-scientific and literary trends. There have been some important findings. For one, Jesus is understood more politically, proclaiming the
