well, what did he do then? he began traveling from town to town teaching the
people about God. Jesus went back to Nazareth where he grew up... one day he
went to the temple and the leaders asked him to read from God's book the
scriptures... the part of the Holy Scriptures that Jesus read told about
God's plan to send Jesus so that people everywhere could live with God forever.
the Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has chosen me to bring good
news to the poor he has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and
recovery of sight to the blind to set at liberty those who are oppressed and
announced that the time has come when the Lord will save his people
this passage of scripture has come true today as you heard it being read
the scripture come true? but only the Messiah can fulfil that promise... but there's more to the story
Jesus went down to the Sea of Galilee... push the boat out further to the deep water then you
and your partner's let down your nets for a catch
Oh master we worked hard all night long and caught nothing.... but if you say so, I let down the nets
I think it was right then that Peter understood that Jesus is God's Son
but Peter was afraid... he had done so many wrong things in his life he couldn't
understand how someone is holy and powerful as Jesus could accept someone
as sinful as he was... go away from me Lord I am a sinful man.....
don't be afraid...
I better go... yeah I better get going to me too
And where were you Benjamin out with your friends again? yes father... was Caleb there?
I've told you many times I don't want you spending time with that boy you know
his father believes all those wild stories about Jesus.... why is that wrong?
We believe that God will send us a mighty king your friend's father believes that
someone born in a stable is that king it's nonsense... but what if Caleb's dad is right?
no Benjamin we are not going to discuss this anymore... yes sir.
on Babylon and his arm will be against the Chaldean I even I have spoken and called him I have
brought him and he will prosper in his way who among them has declared these
things the Lord loves him.... listen wait to hear what happened today I was there
Jesus was in the temple teaching people about God's love.... a huge crowd was packed
inside and there were even more people waiting outside... everybody wanted to see him.
Jesus, please, I beg you to save my only daughter
sir, have mercy, she's only 12 years old them and dying.. please please come with me
Jairus I'm sorry....your daughter has died don't bother the teacher any longer
Don't be afraid, only believe and she will be well
child .... arise
give her something to eat...
wow! that really happened? it sure did, you never even know she'd been sick.
my dad says that Jesus has friends who do really bad things he says
they're a bunch of sinners... that's true but that's only because Jesus loves and
cares about everyone no matter who they are...
my dad told me about a man named Matthew who collected money
from the people paying taxes as they came into the city
follow me
Matthew is one of the twelve people Jesus chose to be his disciples they're
his best friends and they travel with him everywhere to help teach people
about God... There's Simon also named Peter Andrew, Peters brother, James, John Philip,
Bartholomew, Matthew of course, Thomas, another James another Simon Judas the
brother of James and Judas Iscariot...
how can you remember all that?
he's very smart. you would think so but that's because you're so stupid
I am not. You're as dumb as your old donkey.
It will hurt worse if we don't clean it...
what happened? he got in a fight I didn't ask you Leah... sorry.
I got in a fight with Caleb
They were talking about Jesus. He and his friends meet all the time in Sarah's stable.
I told you nothing good comes from all of this talk about Jesus! he is not our King and he
never will be. But father I think he might really be the Son of God.
That's enough!
Aren't you being a little *** the boy? I don't think so but it won't matter
soon anyway... I've heard there may be a traitor among the so called followers of Jesus.
If that's true he won't because causing us trouble much longer.
Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you.
and pray for those who mistreat you.
If anyone strikes you on the one cheek let him hit the other one also
and if someone takes away your coat let him have your shirt as well
Give to everyone who begs from you and if someone takes what is yours do not ask for it back again.
Do for others only what you would have others do for you
I'd like to know this man.. do you think he might be the Messiah?
What did he mean when he said the Messiah? They talked about it in the Temple
Messiah means, the Promised One.
A Sower went out to sow his seed and as he scattered the grain some of it fell by the path
and was trodden on and the birds of the air devoured it
and some fell on rocky ground and when
the plants sprouted they withered away because they had no moisture
and some seeds fell among thorns and the thorns grew up with the plants and choked them
and some seeds fell in good soil and the plants grew and bore grain 100 grains each.
this is what the parable means - the seed is the word of God.
the seeds thatfell along the path stand for those who hear but the devil comes and takes the
message away from their hearts in order to keep them from believing and being saved
the seeds that fell on rocky ground stand for those who hear the
message and receive it gladly but they have no roots they believe only for a while
and when the time of testing comes they fall away...
the seeds that fell among thorns stand for those who hear
but the worries and riches and pleasures of this
life crowd in and choke them and their fruit never ripens
and the seeds that fell in good soil stand for those who hear the message and retain it in a good
and obedient heart and they persist until they bear fruit
Where is your faith?
