Does He love us because we're good? 01:16 No. 01:18 Does He love us because we love Him 01:20 and we always do what He asks us to? 01:22 No. 01:25 God loves us even when we do things that make Him sad. 01:29 If God can love and accept us as we are, 01:32 don't you think we should be loving and accepting of others. 01:35 Yes. 01:38 "Dear friends, since God so loved us, 01:41 we also ought to love one another." 01:45 1 John 4:11. 01:50 Dear friends, since God so loved us 01:55 We also ought to love one another 01:59 Dear friends, since God so loved us 02:03 We also ought to love one another 02:07 Dear friends, since God so loved us 02:12 We also ought to love one another 02:16 Dear friends, since God so loved us 02:20 We also ought to love one another 02:25 Dear friends, since God so loved us 02:29 We also ought to love one another 02:33 Dear friends, since God so loved us 02:38 We also ought to love one another 02:42 Dear friends, since God so loved us 02:46 We also ought to love one another 02:50 Dear friends, since God so loved us 02:55 We also ought to love one another 03:13 When Jesus went back to heaven after His resurrection, 03:16 He left a job for us to do. 03:19 Do you know what that job was? 03:21 He said, "We should make disciples of all nations." 03:25 Do you know what a disciple is? 03:27 A disciple is a follower, a believer. 03:30 Jesus wants us to tell others 03:32 about what a good friend He is to us, 03:34 so that they will want to follow Him too. 03:37 To follow Jesus means that we want to obey Him 03:41 and become more like Him. 03:43 "Go and make disciples of all nations, 03:46 baptizing them in the name of the Father 03:49 and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 03:52 and teaching them to obey everything 03:54 I have commanded you. 03:56 And surely I am with you always to the very end of the age." 04:00 Matthew 28:19, 20. 04:02 Go and make disciples of all nations 04:07 Baptizing them in the name of the Father 04:12 And of the Son And of the Holy Spirit 04:17 And teaching them to obey everything 04:22 I have commanded you 04:27 And surely I am with you always 04:32 To the very end of the age 04:38 Go and make disciples of all nations 04:43 Baptizing them in the name of the Father 04:47 And of the Son And of the Holy Spirit 04:52 And teaching them to obey everything 04:57 I have commanded you 05:02 And surely I am with you always 05:07 To the very end of the age 05:22 Jesus spend 40 days with the disciples 05:24 after His resurrection. 05:26 Then one day as He was talking to them, 05:28 He was taken up into heaven 05:29 and a cloud hid Him from their sight. 05:32 The disciples must have been very surprised. 05:35 Suddenly, two angels stood with them and told them 05:38 that Jesus would come back 05:39 in the same way that He had left. 05:41 So if someone tells you that Jesus has come back, 05:44 and He's in the desert or secret place. 05:47 Don't believe it because the Bible says, 05:50 "He will come in the clouds and every eye will see Him." 05:55 "This same Jesus, 05:57 who has been taken from you into heaven, 05:59 will come back, in the same way 06:01 you have seen Him go into heaven." 06:03 Acts 1:11. 06:07 This same Jesus 06:11 Who has been taken From you into heaven 06:15 Will come back 06:17 In the same way you have seen Him go into heaven 06:23 This same Jesus 06:27 Who has been taken From you into heaven 06:31 Will come back 06:33 In the same way you have seen Him go into heaven 06:39 This same Jesus 06:44 Who has been taken from you into heaven 06:48 Will come back 06:50 In the same way you have seen Him go into heaven 06:56 This same Jesus 07:00 Who has been taken from you into heaven 07:04 Will come back 07:06 In the same way you have seen Him go into heaven 07:24 Remember the job that Jesus left for us to do. 07:27 The disciples took that job very seriously. 07:31 They preached about Jesus every where they went. 07:34 They said that "He was the Son of God 07:36 and that He had risen from the death." 07:39 Then they ask the people to repent of their sins 07:42 and be baptized to show that they believed in Jesus. 07:46 The gift of the Holy Spirit was promise to all those 07:49 who repented and were baptized. 07:52 That promise is still good for us today. 07:55 When we're baptized, the Holy Spirit is given to us, 07:59 to help us obey God 08:01 and to give us power to witness for Him. 08:06 "Repent, and be baptized every one of you, 08:09 in the name of Jesus Christ 08:11 for the forgiveness of your sins. 08:13 And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." 08:16 Acts 2:38. 08:19 Repent, repent 08:23 And be baptized every one of you 08:26 In the name of Jesus Christ 08:29 For the forgiveness of your sins 08:33 And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit 08:39 Repent, repent 08:43 And be baptized every one of you 08:46 In the name of Jesus Christ 08:49 For the forgiveness of your sins 08:53 And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit 08:59 Repent, repent 09:03 And be baptized every one of you 09:06 In the name of Jesus Christ 09:09 For the forgiveness of your sins 09:13 And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit 09:36 Our next verse says 09:38 that the prayer faith will bring healing. 09:40 Sickness was not a part of God's plan for us. 09:43 But because of sin we all suffer sickness 09:47 at different times in our lives. 09:50 You may have prayed for healing 09:51 for yourself or someone you know 09:53 and then disappointed 09:55 because your prayer didn't seem to be answered. 09:58 God may not always answer our prayers 10:00 for healing immediately. 10:02 But when Jesus comes, 10:04 all who have faith in Him 10:06 will be made holy and will never be sick again. 10:12 "The prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well, 10:16 the Lord will raise him up." 10:18 James 5:15. 10:22 The prayer offered in faith 10:26 Will make the sick person well 10:30 The Lord will raise him 10:34 The Lord will raise him up 10:38 The prayer offered in faith 10:42 Will make the sick person well 10:47 The Lord will raise him 10:50 The Lord will raise him up 10:55 The prayer offered in faith 10:59 Will make the sick person well 11:03 The Lord will raise him 11:07 The Lord will raise him up 11:11 The prayer offered in faith 11:15 Will make the sick person well 11:19 The Lord will raise him 11:23 The Lord will raise him up 11:39 Do you know what salvation is? 11:41 If you receive salvation, 11:43 it means you have been saved 11:45 or delivered from something. 11:47 If we accept Jesus and His death on the cross 11:50 to save us, 11:51 we are delivered from sin, our sins are forgiven. 11:55 That's the reason we worship Jesus. 11:57 Many people worship other gods, but those gods can't save them. 12:02 The Bible tells us that the only one 12:04 who can give salvation is Jesus. 12:09 "Salvation is found in no one else, 12:12 for there is no other name under heaven 12:15 given to men by which we must be saved." 12:19 Acts 4:12. 12:21 Salvation is found in no one else 12:26 For there is no other name under heaven 12:31 Given to men, given to men 12:35 By which we must be saved 12:40 Salvation is found in no one else 12:45 For there is no other name under heaven 12:50 Given to men, given to men 12:54 By which we must be saved 13:08 A righteous person is the one who does what is right. 13:13 In the Book of Proverbs, 13:15 Solomon, the wisest man that ever lived, 13:17 had a lot to say about righteous people. 13:21 He said that they care for their animals, 13:24 they stay out of trouble. 13:26 And God hears them when they pray. 13:28 Did you know that the Bible said that? 13:31 Here's something else 13:33 that Solomon said about the righteous. 13:38 "The righteous hate what is false." 13:40 Proverbs 13:5. 13:43 The righteous, the righteous, the righteous 13:47 Hate what is false 13:48 The righteous, the righteous, the righteous 13:51 Hate what is false 13:53 The righteous, the righteous, the righteous 13:56 Hate what is false 13:58 The righteous, the righteous, the righteous 14:01 Hate what is false 14:03 The righteous, the righteous, the righteous 14:06 Hate what is false 14:07 The righteous, the righteous Hate what is false 14:09 The righteous, the righteous 14:11 Hate what is false The righteous, the righteous 14:14 Hate what is false 14:15 The righteous, the righteous Hate what is false 14:17 The righteous, the righteous 14:18 Hate what is false 14:20 The righteous, the righteous Hate what is false 14:21 The righteous Hate what is false 14:24 The righteous, the righteous, the righteous 14:28 Hate what is false 14:29 The righteous, the righteous, the righteous 14:32 Hate what is false 14:34 The righteous, the righteous, the righteous 14:37 The righteous, the righteous Hate what is false 14:39 The righteous Hate what is false 14:41 The righteous 14:42 The righteous Hate what is false 14:44 The righteous 14:45 Hate what is false 14:57 Has anyone ever told you do something 15:00 that you knew Jesus wouldn't want you to do? 15:03 Someone might have said that you should lie 15:05 to keep from getting in trouble 15:07 or cheat at school to get a good grade, 15:10 or do something mean to someone to show that you're cool. 15:13 God said, "We need to speak the truth 15:15 and be kind to each other." 15:17 God made us and He knows what's best for us, 15:19 and what will bring us true happiness. 15:22 That's why it's so important to obey God. 15:26 "We must obey God rather than men!" 15:29 Acts 5:29. 15:34 We must obey God rather than men 15:38 We must obey God 15:43 We must obey God rather than men 15:47 We must obey God 15:51 We must obey God rather than men 15:55 We must obey God 15:59 We must obey God rather than men 16:04 We must obey God 16:08 We must obey God rather than men 16:12 We must obey God 16:16 We must obey God rather than men 16:20 We must obey God 16:25 We must obey God rather than men 16:29 We must obey God 16:33 We must obey God rather than men 16:37 We must obey God 16:48 This next verse instructs us to be faithful. 16:52 It was written specially for a group of people, 16:54 who were facing hard times in their lives. 16:57 Some of them were about to be put in prison 16:59 because of their belief in Jesus. 17:02 The crown of life was promised to those who remained faithful 17:06 but the promise was not only for them, it's for us too. 17:10 Sometimes you may be laughed at or made fun of 17:14 because you stand up for what's right 17:17 but remember this promise. 17:20 "Be faithful, even to the point of death, 17:24 and I will give you the crown of life." 17:26 Revelation 2:10. 17:29 Be faithful, be faithful 17:33 Even to the point of death 17:36 And I will 17:38 Give you the crown of life 17:43 Be faithful, be faithful 17:47 Even to the point of death 17:50 And I will 17:52 Give you the crown of life 17:57 Be faithful, be faithful 18:01 Even to the point of death 18:05 And I will 18:07 Give you the crown of life 18:12 Be faithful, be faithful 18:16 Even to the point of death 18:19 And I will give you the crown of life 18:31 Jesus told His disciples that they would be witnesses for Him 18:34 in the city of Jerusalem, 18:37 and then in the areas surrounding Jerusalem, 18:39 and then to the ends of the earth. 18:42 He wants us to be His witnesses too. 18:45 But what is a witness? 18:48 A witness is someone who tells what they have seen or heard. 18:53 When we tell others 18:54 about how God has answered our prayers, 18:57 that's witnessing. 18:58 When we tell our friends that Jesus forgives our sins 19:02 and offers us eternal life, we are witnessing. 19:06 We can also witness without saying a word. 19:10 When people see us being kind and thoughtful of others, 19:13 they see a witness to the love of God. 19:17 I want to witness for Him, how about you? 19:21 "You will receive power 19:22 when the Holy Spirit comes on you, 19:25 and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, 19:29 and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." 19:32 Acts 1:8. 19:34 You will receive power 19:37 When the Holy Spirit comes on you 19:41 And you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem 19:46 And in all Judea, and Samaria 19:51 And to the ends of the earth 19:54 You will receive power 19:58 When the Holy Spirit comes on you 20:02 And you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem 20:07 And in all Judea, and Samaria 20:11 And to the ends of the earth 20:15 You will receive power 20:18 When the Holy Spirit comes on you 20:23 And you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem 20:28 And in all Judea, and Samaria 20:32 And to the ends of the earth 20:49 Have you ever been so busy doing something 20:51 that your mother or father had to do something 20:53 unusual to get your attention? 20:55 In the Bible, there's a story about Saul 20:57 who was so busy persecuting Christians 21:00 and thinking he was doing God a favor, 21:02 that God had to do something 21:03 very unusual to get his attention. 21:06 He appeared to Saul in a bright light 21:08 and asked why he was persecuting Him? 21:11 Saul immediately realized that God was speaking to him, 21:14 and he asked a very important question 21:16 that changed his life forever. 21:20 "Lord, what do you want me to do?" 21:23 Acts 9:6. 21:27 Lord, what do you want me to do? 21:33 Lord, what do you want me to do? 21:40 What do you want me to do? 21:45 Lord, what do you want me to do? 21:51 Lord, what do you want me to do? 21:57 Lord, what do you want me to do? 22:03 Lord, what do you want me to do? 22:09 Lord, what do you want me to do? 22:14 Lord, what do you want me to do? 22:20 Lord, what do you want me to do? 22:26 Lord, what do you want me to do? 22:32 Lord, what do you want me to do? 22:38 Lord, what do you want me to do? 22:57 Have you ever been in a big storm at night 23:00 when the electricity went off in your house? 23:03 It's hard to see when there's no light, 23:05 isn't it? 23:06 But what happens if you light even one candle? 23:10 It gives enough light to see where you're going, doesn't it? 23:14 We all have a light, 23:16 if we have Jesus love in our hearts 23:19 by doing kind things for others. 23:21 Jesus love can shine from us and be a light to someone 23:25 who is living in darkness, without Him. 23:29 "Let your light shine before men, 23:31 that they may see your good deeds 23:33 and praise your Father in heaven." 23:36 Matthew 5:16. 23:38 Let your light shine before men 23:42 That they may see your good deeds 23:46 And praise your Father And praise your Father 23:51 And praise your Father in heaven 23:55 Let your light shine before men 23:59 That they may see your good deeds 24:03 And praise your Father And praise your Father 24:08 And praise your Father in heaven 24:13 Let your light shine before men 24:16 That they may see your good deeds 24:21 And praise your Father And praise your Father 24:25 And praise your Father in heaven 24:30 Let your light shine before men 24:34 That they may see your good deeds 24:38 And praise your Father And praise your Father 24:42 And praise your Father in heaven 25:01 Does God love you 25:02 more than He loves the children of India, 25:04 or Africa, or any other country? 25:08 No. 25:09 Peter learned that from a dream that God gave him. 25:13 Why don't you ask an adult to read you the story 25:16 in Acts 10:9-35? 25:20 Peter discovered that God loves people from every country, 25:24 and wants them all to accept Him 25:27 and live with Him in heaven. 25:29 God does not show favoritism and neither should we. 25:34 "God does not show favoritism." 25:37 Acts 10:34. 25:40 God does not show favoritism God does not, 25:44 God does not God does not show favoritism 25:49 God does not 25:52 God does not show favoritism God does not, 25:56 God does not God does not show favoritism 26:00 God does not 26:03 God does not show favoritism God does not, 26:08 God does not God does not show favoritism 26:12 God does not 26:15 God does not show favoritism God does not, 26:20 God does not God does not show favoritism 26:24 God does not 26:27 God does not 26:30 God does not |
