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.

Read: Psalm 19 |
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-)

The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork. — Psalm 19:1 |
With

By the strength of His voice heaven’s hosts were unfurled; Now in His honor we worship His name And in heartfelt devotion His glory proclaim. —Branon Creation
is the canvas on which God has painted His character.

📖 SERIE BÍBLICA COMPLETA: 🌾 SEMANA 1: Dios el Creador, el Origen del Hombre y la Promesa Propósito: Comprender que Dios es un Dios de orden, que nos dio dignidad al crearnos y que, aunque el pecado trajo espinos, Él siempre tiene un plan de redención. 1. Dios pone orden en medio del caos Cita Bíblica (Génesis 1:1–3): "En el principio creó Dios los cielos y la tierra. Y la tierra estaba desordenada y vacía, y las tinieblas estaban sobre la faz del abismo, y el Espíritu de Dios se movía sobre la faz de las aguas. Y dijo Dios: Sea la luz; y fue la luz." Ejemplo Bíblico: Dios no destruyó la tierra vacía; pronunció su Palabra y fue separando la luz de las tinieblas y el agua de la tierra seca hasta dejar un mundo hermoso. Ejemplo Práctico para Hoy: Pensemos en un terreno cubierto de maleza, piedras y charcos. A simple vista parece inservible, pero el agricultor no lo abandona: lo limpia, lo ara y lo prepara. Hoy en día, hay familias donde hay pleitos, deudas o tristeza en el co...
