God’sFlannelgraph |
In
this age of new video technology, it might be hard to believe that some
teachers still feel the best way to depict Bible stories is the
low-tech flannelgraph board. I recall that Sunday school
teachers used those flat boards covered with flannel, which enabled
them to display cutouts of David, Daniel, Jonah, Jesus, and all the
other characters. The flannelgraphs helped my teachers capture the essence of the Bible story in an artistic way.

Those old-school flannelgraphs aren’t the oldest graphic teaching devices, however. God has long had a kind of “flannelgraph” of His own, and it is called creation. God uses the marvel of creation to instruct us and to display His power. In Psalm 19:1, David wrote, “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork.” In creation, God has revealed Himself so clearly that Paul declared, “His invisible attributes are clearly seen.” Those who have the witness of creation are “without excuse” (Rom. 1:20). Why? On the flannelgraph of God’s creation, we see God’s order and design. We see His power and glory. This should lead us to worship. “O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is Your name in all the earth!” (Ps. 8:1). (Psalm
19 -Audio-)

is the canvas on which God has painted His character.

¿Quien fue el hombre que mientras mentia Dios estaba con él y cuando dijo la verdad Dios se aparto de él?
Libro de Jueces : La historia de Sansón y Dalila. (Jueces 16:13 mentira, v. 17 dijo la verdad y v. 20 Dios se aparto de él.)- Después Sansón se enamoró de una mujer llamada Dalila, que vivía en el valle de Sore. Los jefes de los filisteos fueron a ver a Dalila, y le dijeron: –Engaña a Sansón y averigua de dónde le vienen sus fuerzas extraordinarias, y cómo podríamos vencerle; así podremos atarle y tenerle sujeto. A cambio de tus servicios, cada uno de nosotros te dará mil cien monedas de plata. -Entonces ella dijo a Sansón: –Por favor, dime de dónde te vienen esas fuerzas extraordinarias. ¿Hay algún modo de atarte sin que te puedas soltar?-Sansón le respondió: –Si me atan con siete cuerdas de arco que todavía no estén secas, perderé mi fuerza y seré un hombre común y corriente. Los jefes de los filisteos llevaron a Dalila siete cuerdas de arco nuevas, y con ellas Dalila ató a Sansón.
