Some people will trust in Jesus

"Jesus died on the cross. But he did not stay dead. God made Jesus came alive again. Jesus stayed on the earth for 40 more days. He kept on visiting his friends. He wanted them to know that he was alive. He wanted them to be sure about that. Jesus talked to them. He told them that some people will trust in him. They will be sorry for their sins. God will forgive their sins. Then they will be right with God. God will give them a new life. God will be the ruler of their new life" (Acts 1:3, the B-I-B-L-E).

Jesus is awesome

"Jesus is awesome. Jesus is perfect. Jesus shows us what God the Father is like. They are always together. God the Father is God. And Jesus is God. Jesus takes care of everything that he made. He keeps things in their right place. He is stronger than anything. That is how he can hold the world together. Jesus died on the cross. He never did any sins. He died for our sins. He took our punishment. He made the way for us to be right with God. Jesus finished that job. Then he went back to heaven. He is with God the Father. Now Jesus is in the important place in heaven. Jesus is awesome" (Hebrews 1:3, The B-I-B-L-E).

Jesus is waiting

"Jesus said, 'I will come back again.' Jesus made a promise. But some people think that Jesus is too slow. They think that Jesus will not keep his promise. They think that Jesus will never come back. Do not think that way! Jesus is not being slow. He is not waiting too long. He is patient. He cares about you. He does not want anyone to be far away from God. He does not want to punish anyone. So he is patient. He is waiting for more people to be sorry for their sins. He is waiting for more people to get right with God"
(2 Peter 3:9, The B-I-B-L-E).

The war in your heart

"Sin used to be the ruler of your life. Your old self likes to do bad things. Your old self thinks it is fun to do bad things. That is the way you used to live. But now the Holy Spirit lives in you. He is the ruler of your life. He helps you want to do what is right. He helps you want good things. There is like a war in your heart. Those two things are always fighting. Your old self wants you to do bad things. The Holy Spirit wants you to do what is right. Every day you have to make lots of choices. Who is winning the war in your heart? Is your old self winning the war in your heart? Or is the Holy Spirit winning the war in your heart?" (Galatians 5:17, The B-I-B-L-E).

You can never do enough good things to be right with God

"There is only one way to be right with God. It is by trusting in Jesus. No one can ever be right with God by obeying rules. But maybe someone will say that you need to obey rules. Maybe someone will say that you need to obey rules to be right with God. Then they are not trusting in Jesus anymore. Then they are back in their old life. Then they are trying to do enough good things to be right with God" (Galatians 2:18, The B-I-B-L-E).

Everyone in the church should love each other

"Jesus made the way for people to be right with God. People can trust in Jesus. Then they can be part of God’s family. Then they will be part of the church. Jesus is the head of the church. Jesus gives gifts to people. People need to use their gifts to be a blessing to the church. Everyone in the church has an important job to do. Then everyone can keep on growing to know God better and better. Then the church will do God’s work. Then the church will grow. Then the church will trust in Jesus more and more. Then everyone in the church will show love to each other"
(Ephesians 4:16, The B-I-B-L-E).

God made the way to save us

"We did lots of bad things. So we were far away from God. But God still loved us. God sent Jesus to die for us. But Jesus did not stay dead. God made Jesus come alive again. Jesus made the way for us to be right with God. Jesus gave us a new life. Jesus is the ruler of our new life. Sin is not the ruler of our life anymore. We could not save ourselves. We could not get rid of our sins by ourselves. But God is super kind. God really loves us. So he made the way to save us" (Ephesians 2:5, The B-I-B-L-E).
