Jesus Is God’s Word Quick Start Historically, Jesus grew up and lived around Galilee, traveling with His disciples to many towns and villages sharing the Good News. Can you name some of those places? Quest The most important person in the Bible is Jesus. Centuries before His birth, the prophets knew God’s Son would be born of a virgin in Bethlehem; would speak in parables; be whipped and beaten for us; would have His hands and feet pierced; would be buried in a rich man’s tomb; would rise again from the dead on the third day; and much, much more. In fact, Jesus fulfilled more than three hundred biblical prophecies. The Old Testament told everyone that God’s Savior was coming; the New Testament records the life and teachings of Jesus, as well as those who followed Him. Jesus asked God to remind His disciples of all the words that He spoke to them and He prayed for those who would hear those words (John 17:8, 17–21). This is why we have a Bible today—and Jesus is the connecting point of it all. No wonder the apostle John calls Jesus God’s “Word” (John 1:1–14). Quiet Family Prayer Jesus did not come to fulfill the Bible’s purpose; rather, the Bible’s purpose reveals that of Jesus—to serve, suffer, and die for each one of us so that ultimately we could become God’s children. Thank God for sending His dear Son to rescue us and ask God to help you live for Him. Quiet Times Younger Kids: Read the story of Jonah. Nineveh was rescued because they listened to God. Pray and ask God to help you listen, too, to the great things the Bible tells us about Jesus. Older Kids: Read John 1:1–14; 17:8, 17–21. Can you picture the disciple John (who walked with Jesus before and after Jesus died and rose again) sitting down and writing these words? After reading them, do you think that John knew He was writing part of God’s Word? Pray and ask God to help you to really know Jesus and that He’d use you to help others know Him as well.
