Grade 6, Unit 7
Jesus Completes Our Salvation
Dear Parents,
This unit is not merely the focal point of all of our studies of our Christian faith this year; it is also the
focus of the entire Bible. And by God’s grace, it is also the focus of our entire lives! Our studies in
math and science and social studies are essential for daily life; but it is in our study of Scripture that
all these blessings find their true purpose and meaning through life in Christ. God blesses us with
intelligence and abilities and talents, and He guides us to use these for our personal welfare—it is
true. But He also desires that we use these blessings for the good of others and for the glory of the Lord.
Our focus in this unit is on Holy Week and the events surrounding it. Here, we see God’s covenant
promises coming together and being fulfilled in Christ Jesus. We cannot save ourselves; only Jesus
could do that for us, because He is the sinless Son of God. Amazingly, He is also our substitute! He gives
His victory to us!
Jesus suffered all things, died on the cross, and arose at Easter to complete our salvation. It is finished!
He offers us the gifts of forgiveness and eternal life through His loving grace and mercy. May the
comfort and assurance of God’s grace be the very center of your family life together!
