00:09 We'll sing out loud Our voice is raising

00:15 Hallelujah Hallelujah
00:22 We'll tell the world How much we love Him
00:25 Let's all praise
00:27 Come on, let's all praise the Lord.
00:32 Hi, boys and girls,
00:34 did you know that Satan was so angry with God
00:37 for casting him out of heaven that he wanted to hurt God.
00:41 He knew that the very best way to do that was to cause
00:44 Adam and Eve to disobey.
00:46 So using a tree and a piece of fruit,
00:49 Satan convinced them
00:51 that the God who claimed to love them so much
00:53 was keeping good things from them.
00:55 Adam and Eve ate off the fruit
00:57 that they had been commanded not to eat,
01:00 and thus sin was born into the human heart.
01:04 The amazing thing is God already had a plan,
01:07 a plan that would save humans from the disease of sin.
01:12 But their salvation came at a very high price.
01:15 It would cost the life of God's only Son Jesus,
01:19 and although sin was introduced to the world
01:22 through Satan using a tree,
01:24 the victory over sin was won through Jesus on a tree.
01:30 The cross that Jesus was crucified on
01:33 was made from a tree one that He created himself.
01:36 Yes, Jesus grew the tree that He knew would be
01:41 used to make the old-rugged cross.
01:45 Praise the Lord that Jesus loved us so much
01:48 He willingly gave his life to save us.
01:52 Think about God's great sacrifice
01:54 as Samara sings, "He grew the tree".
02:07 He molded and built
02:12 On a lonely hill
02:17 That He knew
02:19 Would be called Calvary
02:27 Then He made a seed
02:32 That would grow to be
02:37 Thorns that would make His Son bleed
02:46 Then He made a green stem
02:51 Gave it leaves and gave it
02:56 Sunlight and rain and Sheltered it with moss
03:06 He grew the tree
03:10 That He knew would be
03:15 Used to make the old-rugged cross
03:24 Nothing took His life
03:29 With love He gave it
03:34 He was crucified on a tree
03:40 That He created
03:44 Great love for man
03:48 Made him stick with His plan
03:53 He grew the tree
03:58 So that we might be free
04:03 Nothing took His life
04:07 With love He gave it
04:13 He was crucified on a tree
04:18 That He created
04:22 Great love for man
04:26 Made him stick with His plan
04:31 He grew the tree
04:36 So that we might be free
04:42 He grew the tree
04:47 So that we might be free.
05:10 When Jesus hung on the cross, He died to save all mankind.
05:15 But did you know
05:16 that he would have died for just you?
05:19 In the book of Luke,
05:20 Jesus tells the story of a missing sheep.
05:23 He said that even though there are 99 other sheep,
05:26 the missing one is so important that it must be found.
05:30 He wants you to know that if you are lost,
05:32 He will search for you until He finds you.
05:35 Listen now as Avery plays on a saxophone, "Above All".
08:53 There's a prison in Brazil that's run by Christians.
08:56 It is a clean, well kept, orderly, and peaceful prison.
09:00 And on the walls hangs scriptures
09:02 from Psalms and Proverbs.
09:04 However, this prison used to be quite different.
09:07 And there was one particular cell
09:09 that was used exclusively for torture.
09:12 Today, that cell has only one inmate.
09:15 And if you open up the door and you look inside,
09:19 you'll see a beautiful carving made by the prisoners
09:22 of Jesus hanging on the cross.
09:25 You see, we are the ones that deserve the punishment
09:28 that Jesus took for us.
09:30 It was sin that hung Him on the cross,
09:33 the sins that we have committed.
09:35 But Jesus love is beyond understanding,
09:38 and we have Him to thank for taking our place
09:41 in that prison cell.
09:43 Here are The Kids Time Singers with "Amazing Grace".
09:55 Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
10:02 That saved a wretch like me
10:09 I was once lost but now I'm found
10:16 Was blind, but now I see
10:23 'Twas Grace that taught My heart to fear
10:30 And grace, my fears relieved
10:37 How precious did that grace appear
10:44 The hour I first believed.
10:51 Through many dangers, toils and snares
10:58 I have already come
11:05 'Tis grace that brought me safe thus far
11:12 And grace will lead me home.
11:19 When we've been there ten thousand years
11:26 Bright shining as the sun.
11:33 We've no less days to sing God's praise
11:40 Than when we first begun.
11:50 Have you ever been bullied?
11:52 Kids bully others for all different kinds of reasons,
11:56 because they have braces on their teeth,
11:58 because they wore glasses,
11:59 or maybe because they just are not good at sports.
12:02 Do you sometimes feel like you just aren't good enough?
12:06 I wish we lived in a world where we were not judged
12:09 by the size of our house
12:10 or by the brand of shoes on our feet.
12:13 Did you know in God's eyes we are all equal?
12:16 It doesn't matter where we live, how old we are,
12:19 or what the color of our skin is.
12:22 Take a minute to thank Jesus at The Knowlton Brothers play,
12:26 "Jesus loves the little children".
13:20 We all have those certain things in life
13:23 we just don't enjoy doing.
13:25 Do you take music lessons?
13:27 Practicing may be boring,
13:28 but all that practice will pay off some day.
13:32 And if you don't like going to school,
13:34 someday, all that education will be worth it.
13:37 The same with Jesus,
13:39 He knew that He would overcome death
13:42 through his own death.
13:43 He could see all the good
13:45 that would come from his sacrifice.
13:47 He invites you to lay all your problems at the cross
13:50 and trust in His perfect plan.
13:53 Listen as Holly sings "At the Cross".
14:11 Oh, Lord, You've searched me
14:17 You know my way
14:23 Even when I fail You
14:29 I know You love me
14:36 Your holy presence
14:43 Surrounding me
14:49 In every season
14:54 I know You love me
15:01 I know You love me
15:08 At the cross I bow my knee
15:11 Where Your blood was shed for me
15:14 There's no greater love than this
15:21 You have overcome the grave
15:24 Your glory fills the highest place
15:27 What can separate me now
15:34 At the cross I bow my knee
15:37 Where Your blood was shed for me
15:40 There's no greater love than this
15:47 You have overcome the grave
15:50 Your glory fills the highest place
15:53 What can separate me now
15:57 You tore the veil
16:00 You made a way
16:04 When You said that it is done
16:10 You tore the veil
16:13 You made a way
16:17 When You said that it is done.
16:29 When Jesus was here on earth,
16:31 Satan knew that if Jesus made just one mistake,
16:34 there would be no salvation.
16:37 No human would ever enter in through the heavenly gates.
16:40 They wouldn't cast their crowns at Jesus feet
16:43 nor sing the song of the Redeemed.
16:45 But Jesus never gave in.
16:48 When He hung on the cross,
16:49 He did so as the perfect Lamb of God
16:52 who truly did take away the sin of the world.
16:55 He won the victory over sin and death.
16:58 Here's Jaydelle with "They Could Not".
17:13 They looked at Him
17:15 And saw a simple man
17:22 A carpenter with healing in His hands
17:33 They saw Him calm a sea
17:36 And heal a dying man
17:42 They saw but could they really understand
17:55 They could not
18:01 They could not
18:06 Though they tried
18:12 They could not
18:16 He was just a simple carpenter
18:21 But with healing in His hands
18:27 But could they really understand?
18:33 They could not
18:44 They listened to the teachings that they heard
18:51 They wondered at the mystery of His word
18:59 They wondered what He meant, about a Father's plan
19:07 They heard but could they really understand
19:21 They could not
19:26 They could not
19:30 Though they tried
19:36 They could not
19:40 They listened to the teachings
19:44 About a Father's plan
19:49 But could they really understand?
19:54 They could not
20:11 So finally upon a rugged cross
20:18 They killed the man who would not suffer loss
20:26 And then at last, they took
20:29 What willingly He gave
20:34 He died, but could they keep Him in the grave
20:47 They could not
20:51 They could not Praise God
21:01 They could not
21:05 And then, at last they took from Him
21:11 What willingly He gave
21:15 Could they keep Him in the grave
21:18 Could they keep Him in the grave
21:22 Could they keep Him in the grave
21:29 They could not
21:34 They could not Praise God
21:43 They could not
21:47 And then at last, they took from Him
21:52 what willingly He gave
21:56 Could they keep Him in the grave
22:00 Could they keep Him in the grave
22:04 Could they keep Him in the grave
22:10 They could not
22:20 They could not.
22:33 A professor brought a box of delicious-looking donuts
22:36 to class one day.
22:37 He asked the first student in the first row,
22:40 if she would like to have a donut.
22:41 When she said yes,
22:43 the professor asked a boy named Steve
22:45 if he would do ten pushups
22:47 so that she could have that donut.
22:49 Because the professor had asked Steve before class
22:52 if he'd be willing to help, Steve said sure.
22:55 The professor asked student after student
22:57 if they would like a donut, and many said yes.
23:01 Steve did even more pushups.
23:03 Now some students said no
23:05 but the professor gave the donuts
23:07 to the students anyway.
23:09 And Steve did 10 more pushups
23:11 for the donut each student didn't want.
23:15 One student wanted to do their own pushups.
23:17 The professor said,
23:18 "No, that's not the way this works."
23:21 Three hundred and fifty pushups later
23:24 after every student received a donut,
23:27 Steve collapsed exhausted to the floor.
23:30 The professor turned to his class and said,
23:33 and so it was that our Savior Jesus Christ on the cross
23:37 said to the father,
23:39 "Into thy hands I commend my spirit."
23:42 With the understanding that he had done everything
23:45 that was required of him.
23:47 He yielded up his life.
23:48 And like some of you in this room,
23:51 many of us leave the gift on the desk uneaten.
23:55 Let's listen as Sam sings "The Old Rugged Cross".
24:09 On a hill far away
24:13 Stood an old-rugged Cross
24:17 The emblem of suffering and shame
24:25 How I love that old Cross
24:29 Where the dearest and best
24:33 For a world of lost sinners was slain
24:40 So I'll cherish the old-rugged Cross
24:48 Till my trophies at last I lay down
24:56 I will cling to the old-rugged Cross
25:03 And exchange it someday
25:07 For a crown
25:11 And exchange it someday for a crown.
25:24 Boys and girls, Jesus died on the cross
25:28 for you and me.
25:30 He left the splendor of heaven, the company of His father,
25:33 and all the angels to be trapped
25:36 in a world full of sin and sinners.
25:39 It was love, His love for you and for me
25:42 that held him on that Cross.
25:45 At any time, He could have changed his mind
25:47 but He loved us too much.
25:49 He died to save us.
25:52 Won't you give your heart to Jesus today?
25:55 Remember, it's kids time to praise Jesus.
