Stories from the olden time: Teacher's text book, course IV, part I

Bible -- Study and teaching; Bible stories, English; Christian education of children
Refer to the question asked in connection with Friday’s reading, and call
for the written answers. Read them and let the children talk about them
freely. Then take up the question about the Golden Rule and get their
ideas concerning the name that has been given to it. Help them to see how
like heaven this world would be if everyone obeyed that rule. Tell them
that people also speak of an Iron Rule and a Silver Rule. Perhaps they
can guess what the Iron Rule would be. It is the rule of savage men. It
says, “If evil is done to you, do evil in return.” The Silver Rule is
the rule of worldly men. That says, “If good is done to you, do good in
return.” See if the children can tell why that rule is called “silver” in
comparison with the Iron Rule. Then comes the Golden Rule, best of all,
because it says nothing about what other people do, but tells each one
under all circumstances, everywhere, to do to others as he would like to
have them do to him.
If you have time review the texts with the colors as given to the
children last Sunday. Then tell them that the white ribbon is used for
the four Gospels which tell of the life of Jesus. Let them find Luke
among the first books of the New Testament and mark the Golden Rule, Luke
6:31 with a strip of white paper.

_Note._—The statements in Hebrews that Melchizedek was without father,
without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days
nor end of life, merely mean that the Scriptures do not mention his
ancestors, parents, birth, or death.—_New Century Bible_, _Genesis_, _W.
