It to be a happy home. Our lesson is about some of the people who were in it. LESSON STORY: There was the father, whose name was Adam. The Bible says: “The Lord God formed [him] of the dust of the ground” (Gen. 2:7). Only God could do that. God gave to Adam work to do in the beautiful garden

person like himself to talk to him. God loved Adam, and He said, “ It is not good that the man should be alone.” He made a helper for him, a woman whose name was called Eve, which means “ the mother of all liv ing.” The Lord did not make Eve, the first woman, in the same way that He had made Adam, the first man. But what God did was always very wonderful. While Adam slept, He took one of Adam’s ribs in a way that did not hurrhim, and using this, He made Eve and brought her to Adam. Adam saw right away that he and Eve were really one, and he was glad. From that day till now, it is God’s plan that the father and mother in every home shall love and trust each other so much that they shall- seem like one person. They can do this only if they have received the Lord Jesus Christ into their hearts. Shall we thank God for the happy homes, where the Lord Jesus is pres ent? And shall we ask Him, too, to come into the homes that are not happy ones, and make them full of joy? Because He is GOD, He can do this; nothing is too hard for Him. 5 -Division

We also discover that the Bible is the basis of this successful home. If you want a real home, do not leave any of these out. Let us now look behind the doors of the house. It may have many mem bers and still be just a house. We see b e h i n d these d o o r s the wo r d s , “HATRED, DIVORCE, LUST, PLEAS URE, and ENVY.” People often wonder why some households are not a suc cess. Perhaps it is because one or all of the above hindrances are present. If any of them ate present, ft will be a place of failure. When Christ is honored, and the Bible is obeyed, love and companion ship will result in a real home.
of the other door print the word “HOUSE.” Open the flaps and com plete the following, “HATRED, DI VORCE, LUST, PL EASURE , and ENVY.” Line the flaps to represent the panels on a door.) LESSON: These, doors look very much alike, but through the gaps we see the word “HOME” in one, and the word “HOUSE” in the other. There are many houses in this country, but the number of real homes is far less. When you open the door, you will see the difference between a house and a home. We will open the door marked “HOME” and see what should be found in a real home. We find the words, “CHRIST, LOVE, COMPANION SHIP, and BIBLE.” This home will be a success because Christ is the head. Where Christ is, there we will find love for Him, love for each other, and
