00:06 Looking for a friend like Jesus It's time
00:10 to share there's a world out there, Let's tell
00:14 them that He loves us so. Let's tell them that He
00:18 loves us so. Kids time, kids time,
00:23 kids time, kids time. Hi, boys and girls
00:26 do you know what is special about April 15th?
00:29 No its not my birthday and its not my anniversary
00:32 either. Every year on on April 15th all of the
00:36 adults in my country where I live in United States
00:39 of America are supposed to report to the
00:41 government how much money that they have made
00:43 that year and also how much they paid to their
00:46 income taxes. Now if they didn't pay enough taxes
00:49 on their income, guess what? They have to pay
00:51 the government more money and if they pay too much
00:55 money then guess what the government is supposed
00:58 to pay the money back. Well now if you can
01:01 imagine people are very excited and happy when
01:03 the government has to pay money back and because
01:05 they wouldn't necessarily expecting to have out that
01:08 money they may use it to buy something very special,
01:11 sometimes they use it to take a vacation, may be buy
01:14 a new car or sometimes they get back just enough
01:17 to have dinner at a restaurant with the family
01:19 but its always an exciting time and exciting thing
01:23 that had happen when you get money back that you
01:25 have never expected to receive. Well our Bible
01:28 story is told by a young couple who got back some
01:31 income tax money that they thought they pay to the
01:33 Roman government but they didn't get their money
01:36 back because they have figured their taxes right
01:38 they got it back because there are just honest tax
01:41 collector met Jesus. Now you cant meet Jesus boys
01:46 and girls without having him change your life in
01:49 the most wonderful way And it usually changes a
01:52 life's of all those who know you as well. Well we
01:55 will find out all about that in just a little while
01:57 But first it is time for a visit with Ranger Jim
02:09 Hi boys and girls ranger Jim saying welcome to
02:11 nature time we are glad to join us today, with
02:13 Gatlinburg, Tennessee, at a place called Ripley's
02:16 Aquarium of the Smokies and what a fun place to be
02:19 we have enjoyed being here today, learned a lot
02:21 about gods creatures. I have a friend with me today
02:24 Clayton, and he is a biologist here at the
02:26 aquarium and he is going to tell us something about
02:29 these creatures. Clayton what are these we have
02:31 swimming here? Well we have a wide variety of
02:33 animals in this tank, where we have is a several
02:36 different species of the southern stingray and we
02:38 also have a lot of variety of sharks here as well
02:41 now some of the stingray we have here are actually
02:44 southern stingray we also have a spotted eagle rays
02:47 we have lan stingrays we also have Cownose Rays,
02:49 going to see cilium see in front of me right now is
02:52 actually called a southern ray make a pie get a
02:54 wing span of around 4 to 5 feet. The one you see
02:59 its swimming line to on the wall right here, that's
03:00 actually a lan stingray actually tell they are
03:02 different from the southern and fact today has a
03:04 pointy nose and a little bit different shaded color
03:07 actually some of the sharks that we are having
03:10 here are leopard sharks bonnethead sharks now
03:15 what's nice about those compared to some of the
03:16 other ones we may have in here in a second, those
03:19 actually give live birth and its fascinating for
03:22 us because we have a lot of activity in this tank
03:25 where we actually have several born on exhibit and
03:29 like the other animals that we have here are in the
03:31 cat shark family, which is a, so we have Applet sharks
03:37 whitespotted bamboo shark we have banded Bamboo
03:42 Shark and Arabian sharks. Now how do you learn all
03:44 these you have to go to college? I have to go to
03:46 college. We have to go to college and be a
03:48 biologist. Yeah I use to do a lot of different
03:49 universities you can go to the do marine biology
03:53 or rays biology backgrounds which is a four to six
03:56 years degree study Now tell me about this now
03:58 I have seen videos of these rays that are
04:01 monsters huge? Yes, how lauding to a
04:06 mane ray which is actually more in the Caribbean and
04:09 golf and Mexico regions we unfortunately we don't
04:11 have any here that's beyond our capability here
04:14 well we do have our spotted Eagle rays that you can
04:16 see swim around the background there make a
04:18 wing span around 8 to 10 feet no five be the
04:20 biggest ray that we have here.The mane rays they
04:23 would get up what 12 15 18 Yeah they could spotted
04:26 good about 24 wing span 24 Yeah And when they go
04:29 through the water so greatful Yeah and actually
04:33 whats unique about them those are pointed needles
04:35 they don't actually fish and some of the other
04:37 coruscations stuff like these animals well they
04:39 actually filter in little tiny planting water that's
04:44 thier main foods source. After jaws everyone who
04:48 go to floyd and swim they believe to see a Sand
04:50 shark this big flea for their life's most sharks
04:54 are harmless is this true? This is true there is
04:56 only may be a few species that are actually
04:59 considered dangerous to people I would even
05:01 consider them dangerous at all for the most part its
05:03 said for fact they still actually doing a while.
05:06 If you go swimming there are jaws that you are not
05:10 going to be attacked by a shark. Yeah you are more
05:12 likely to be stung by a bamboo being killed from
05:17 that or struck by lightening then you will be
05:19 attacked by a shark on the beach Those are good
05:21 odds.Yeah, And most people tell me that even the
05:24 whites most of their attack is that they mistake a
05:28 person for a seal or something like that
05:30 Exactly we are not even on their food source what
05:32 they like in seals is that they like in seals is
05:34 that seals have a high blubber and fat content
05:36 where humans do not so actually when they attack
05:39 they will bite and usually you will save your life
05:42 you are not on their food chain they will let go
05:43 and swim off unfortunately with the type of teeth
05:46 and power they have usually their first bite is the
05:48 more fatal bite. Okay so we have learned again
05:51 about something about these creatures, and I am
05:53 happy to tell you that I have learned very much
05:56 today about them and I have enjoyed so much
05:58 of learning about their rays I have never had
06:00 much experience with the rays so we learn more boys
06:03 and girls about our wonderful creator God and
06:05 how he has made these things for us to see and
06:08 enjoy and share the earth with so Ranger Jim is
06:12 always telling you don't forget to tell Jesus that you
06:15 love him because he really does love you
06:26 A little boy named John was raised to be a Christian
06:29 by his mother, when he was 7 years old his mother
06:34 died. At age of 11 he went to sea with his father
06:39 who was a captain as time went by John no longer
06:42 followed Jesus one day there was a big storm and
06:46 everyone are in John's boat saw that they were going
06:50 to die, tide and fade John turned to Jesus and felt
06:53 his loving grace in his heart. John didn't die that
06:57 night later he became a pastor and moved almost
07:00 300 homes with the John Newton is most remembered
07:04 for his amazing grace.
07:17 Amazing grace! (how sweet the sound)
07:25 That sav'd a wretch like me. I once was lost, but
07:39 am found, Was blind, but now I see. The Lord has
07:55 promised good to me... His word my hope secures
08:09 He will my shield and portion be... as long as
08:20 life endures. Thro' many dangers, toils and snares,
08:35 I have already come; 'Tis grace has brought me safe
08:50 thus far, And grace will lead me home. When we've
09:03 been here ten thousand years...bright shining as
09:13 the sun. We've no less days to sing God's praise...
09:27 then when we've first begun.
09:44 Welcome to learning time thanks for joining us today
09:48 I have got something special for us now Amy is
09:51 going to help us today and Rapp I got a problem for
09:55 you two to solve I happen to have a very nice ladies
09:59 to watch now I am going to put this watch in the
10:01 water and I am sure hope it water proof watch right
10:04 and here we have got water above the rim of that
10:07 watch and Repp what I want you to do is I want you
10:10 to take your hand and I want you to reach in and
10:12 I want you to grab that watch and take it out but
10:15 there is a catch you cant get your hand with if you
10:19 can do this I am going to give you the watch its
10:21 going to be yours hey that sounds like a good deal
10:23 doesn't it? Yeah okay go ahead reach in you think
10:26 you can do it? no. well lets try have you ever
10:29 tried it? no. go ahead go ahead do that may be you
10:31 can put his hands down in between the molecules of
10:33 water and oh Repp your hand is dripping it didn't
10:37 work I will tell you what lets go ahead and put it
10:39 back in here I am going to give Repp a paper towel
10:42 once you dry your hand now Amy do you think you
10:44 can do it Repp cant do it but do you think you can
10:47 do it I will tell you what I am going to make it
10:49 easier for you I happen to have a very special
10:52 chemical this is called lycopodium powder it comes
10:56 from a very special plant if we took a height today
10:59 we might be able to find this plant it's a clubmosses
11:02 it grows out in the woods and we could gather up
11:06 the parts of this flower and we could grind it
11:10 up and I am just going to spread some of this right
11:12 on top of my water we are going to make a layer
11:15 a protective layer on top of the water notice how
11:17 its taking and just making up film of this yellow
11:21 powder right there now Amy what I want you to do
11:24 is I want you to take your hand I want her to put
11:26 her hand right in there can you see the watch?
11:29 I will tell you what we just might want to wear
11:31 hard glasses because we have a chemical right on
11:33 top of that go ahead put your hand in there lets
11:36 see if she can do it you think she can do it? And
11:38 grab that watch look at there her hand is absolutely
11:43 dry and is just covered with this powder the powder was
11:46 a protective covering and it formed a glove around her
11:50 skin Repp and she was able to do that I think that is
11:53 interesting we are going to give you this paper towel
11:55 you can take that powder of your hand I am going to
11:58 go ahead and I am going go ahead and I am gonna dry
12:00 the watch off because the watch is wet do you know
12:03 that reminds me of something very important
12:05 do you know that God wants you and I to be in
12:09 the world just like the watch the watch isn't my
12:11 bigger its in the world but he doesn't want us to be
12:15 affected by the world he doesn't want us to
12:18 participate in some other things that the world does
12:21 and so he gives us power its kind of like that powder
12:24 that I put on the water and it protects us so that we can
12:27 be in the world but we don't necessarily have to be
12:31 affected by all the bad things of the world isn't
12:34 that great oh I think so remember when we learn
12:38 about science we learn more about our creator God.
13:17 I know, I know Wife darling wife you look
13:22 beautiful today. Well thank you. You look
13:24 absolutely radiat. Thank you very much. When I

14:08 money. I know you stole the money. Do you know where
14:10 I get the money from? Where did you get? You are
14:11 not going to believe where I get the money from
14:12 You are right, I don't believe it already I cant
14:15 hear it. I got that money from Zacchaeus. Not
14:20 Zacchaeus tax collector Zacchaeus the tax
14:22 collector came and gave me that money I am giving
14:24 it to you as a gift to make your smile big and bright
14:26 No. You mean the one who took money from everybody
14:29 in the town he gave you money, that evil disgusting
14:35 little mean crooked tax collector came to our door
14:39 knocked one on it and gave me that money which I now
14:42 gave to you. Don't forget that thief he is horrible
14:45 horrible person and he gave you money? He is
14:47 terrible but. And consider it. In consider but
14:52 guess what he met Jesus Come on, Samuel you
14:57 come to me with these stories all the times and
15:01 now you come with these money I want you to tell
15:04 me the truth. I am telling you. This is not healthy
15:06 for us if you tell me stories. I will leave you
15:08 I am telling you the truth wife listen. Where did
15:10 get this from? Rachel I got that money from
15:12 Zacchaeus. Zacchaeus, apparently have been
15:16 heading himself for what he was doing to everyone
15:18 You know he is an Israeli he is a Jew and he works
15:22 for the Romans collecting taxes and he is terrible
15:23 I know he is a bad man He is a bad man but
15:26 apparently he has always felt bad about what he has
15:29 done. Well I surely couldn't tell when he came
15:31 open with hand out telling us what he wanted from
15:34 us I couldn't tell he felt bad. Listen wife,
15:36 listen wife, wife listen he came and gave me that
15:39 money he heard Jesus was coming to town so he
15:43 knows zacchaeus is a short guy well I am now
15:45 want to talk but Zacchaeus was a short guy and he
15:49 could not see over the crowd and he want to see
15:54 Jesus he can do it so he ran in the crowd I saw with
15:57 my own two eyes. He ran out of the crowd climb up to
16:00 that big Sycamore tree the big one from the temple
16:04 I know the tree. Zacchaeus ran climbed up to that
16:07 Sycamore tree and waited to see Jesus passed by with
16:11 the crowd behind him after Jesus passed by zacchaeus
16:18 was so happy to see but zacchaeus was shocked
16:21 because you know what happened Jesus saw zacchaeus
16:24 on the tree. Oh what did he do? Jesus said
16:27 Zacchaeus, I want you to come down because I am
16:31 going to your house. Jesus I am going to your
16:37 house and he said today salvation is going to come
16:40 to your house. So did he go to his house I mean did
16:43 he come down? Zacchaeus met Jesus and zacchaeus
16:46 had a long talk he told zacchaeus that he had to
16:49 clean up his heart that he had to love everyone and
16:52 to do what was right zacchaeus felt so badly
16:55 zacchaeus apologized for all that he had done and
17:00 he said I am going to give back four times the money
17:05 that I stole from everyone everyone that I stole from
17:10 You stop it. What do you think I got that money
17:13 from and that's the money that we got from Zacchaeus
17:16 well I got little bit left for myself, its that your
17:18 part might there.I cant believe. Its true
17:21 zacchaeus is converted zacchaeus is now a kind man
17:27 Oh my god. And he has money for all you too
17:30 Yes he does. Oh you know what if this is true if its
17:37 exactly the way he said that it is if God can change
17:41 the heart of Zacchaeus I know he can change the
17:44 heart of all of us I know he is the God to be said
17:48 believe, that's right. I mean zacchaeus the
17:50 Roman's tax collector that he is if god can change
17:53 his heart and make him a good man just think what
17:56 he can do for everybody else she is right down there
