INTRODUCTION:
The world in which we live comprises of both believers in God, His Son Jesus Christ and the blessed person of the Holy Spirit; as well as non-believers who have no intimate relationship with God through His Son. This difference in rapport is the foundation or basis for the inimical or harmful reaction such as Rage in the Psalmists words.

LESSON OUTLINE:
WHO ARE THE HEATHEN?

  1. The heathen are those who do not have Christ in their Heart.That is, they have not got personal encounter with Jesus Christ. It may surprise you to know that many in the House of God today, are also known as heathen, because the Bible says, “By their fruits we shall know them”.-Matt. 7:16;20, Luke 8:12.

  2. In Jesus’ words, “a brother” who refuses to admit his fault or guilt is implicitly referred to as an “Heathen”.-Matt 18:15-17
