¤ ¤ 00:00:01.96\00:00:03.30 (Miss Ruthie) Hello boys and girls. Welcome to Starting With 00:00:26.35\00:00:29.32 Jesus. We have an exciting story for you today. It's one of my 00:00:29.36\00:00:34.80 favorite stories and it's, No, no, it's not one of my favorite 00:00:34.83\00:00:37.63 stories. It is my favorite story in the whole Bible because it 00:00:37.67\00:00:41.70 gives us hope not only for our lives but for our future so I am 00:00:41.74\00:00:46.74 very excited about this. Because last week we learned that Jesus 00:00:46.78\00:00:50.71 died on the cross, but this week we learn about what happened 00:00:50.75\00:00:55.88 next. So let's get to that. But before we get to that let's 00:00:55.92\00:00:59.92 praise Jesus with some songs. 00:00:59.95\00:01:02.36 ¤ ¤ 00:01:02.39\00:01:11.77 ¤ ¤ 00:02:24.51\00:02:29.51 ¤ ¤ 00:03:30.81\00:03:35.48 ¤ ¤ 00:04:43.51\00:04:48.08 Hello friends, brothers and sisters. My name is Daniel. 00:04:48.12\00:04:52.59 I'm here in El Salvador. El Salvador is the country, the 00:04:52.62\00:04:59.26 country where, you know, we were born originally but we come back 00:04:59.29\00:05:04.43 here because we know that we can do something for God and we can 00:05:04.47\00:05:09.04 do something for others. This place is a future sanitarium. We 00:05:09.07\00:05:16.44 bought this land and we decided to build this place, dedicate 00:05:16.48\00:05:22.18 this place for God. Me and my family, we come here for months 00:05:22.22\00:05:28.82 and we stay here for some time and then we go back to the 00:05:28.86\00:05:33.83 United States. We decided like a family to come here and build 00:05:33.86\00:05:41.47 this place for the honor and glory of God. It feels great to 00:05:41.50\00:05:47.18 get out you know of your comfort life and come and do something 00:05:47.21\00:05:54.55 special for God. It's not easy and we sold our house you know 00:05:54.58\00:06:01.96 to help to provide to build this place. And by the grace of God, 00:06:01.99\00:06:08.43 you know many friends, some friends from church and brothers 00:06:08.46\00:06:13.13 you know and sisters they help us too I would like to encourage 00:06:13.17\00:06:17.24 you to do 00:06:17.27\00:06:18.61 something special for God. It's not going to be easy. It doesn't 00:06:18.64\00:06:23.18 matter where you are, it doesn't matter what you do. Just ask 00:06:23.21\00:06:27.35 Jesus what can you do for Him? In the beginning we thought you 00:06:27.38\00:06:32.95 know it's not going to be possible because there's a lot 00:06:32.99\00:06:35.52 men who have been working very high. You know I come here. 00:06:35.56\00:06:39.56 I take the digging bar, I take the shovel and you know work 00:06:39.59\00:06:45.03 with my family.

We're in the last days 00:07:13.96\00:07:19.03 God needs our help. We need to show the people who Jesus really 00:07:19.07\00:07:27.28 is. 00:07:27.31\00:07:29.11 ¤ ¤ 00:07:29.14\00:07:33.25 Hey everybody, are you ready for our very exciting story today? 00:07:33.28\00:07:36.65 (Miss Michelle) I've been waiting for this entire quarter 00:07:36.69\00:07:39.19 for this story. Let's pray. 00:07:39.22\00:07:42.32 Dear heavenly Father, thank you so much for loving us, for 00:07:42.36\00:07:45.53 loving us so very much and thank you for Jesus. Send your Holy 00:07:45.56\00:07:51.23 Spirit to be with us today. In your name we pray, Amen. 00:07:51.27\00:07:53.57 The title of today's story is From Death to Life. Isn't it 00:07:53.60\00:08:00.21 amazing that Jesus never stopped trusting and that He never 00:08:00.24\00:08:04.18 sinned, not even once. Jesus proved, our lesson study says, 00:08:04.21\00:08:09.72 that with God's help humans can trust and obey no matter what 00:08:09.75\00:08:14.62 happens or how we feel. That's hard isn't it? I'm so thankful 00:08:14.66\00:08:19.66 that Jesus gave us our amazing example; aren't you? Now last 00:08:19.69\00:08:25.03 week we heard the story of Jesus's death, His crucifixion 00:08:25.07\00:08:28.54 right? But the good news came Sunday morning. Matthew 27 verse 00:08:28.57\00:08:35.94 50 and 51. Are you ready for this? Here it comes. Now this is 00:08:35.98\00:08:39.81 Friday and Jesus cried out with a loud voice and yielded up His 00:08:39.85\00:08:42.68 spirit. He gave His life for us. And then in 51: Then behold the 00:08:42.72\00:08:48.02 veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom and the 00:08:48.06\00:08:51.13 earth quaked and the rocks were split and the graves were opened 00:08:51.16\00:08:55.60 and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were 00:08:55.63\00:08:59.03 raised. Now the good news is coming, isn't it? But before we 00:08:59.07\00:09:03.17 get there...Sorry we have to wait a tiny bit longer. I want 00:09:03.20\00:09:06.57 to talk about that. What happened when Jesus died? 00:09:06.61\00:09:09.34 The earth quaked. That's right. It was a huge earthquake and 00:09:09.38\00:09:13.82 graves opened. We're going to find out more about that later. 00:09:13.85\00:09:17.19 Graves of the saints who had died. Now it also talks about 00:09:17.22\00:09:21.72 how the curtain of the temple tore when Jesus died. Now 00:09:21.76\00:09:26.63 because Jesus had come and He was the Lamb of God we no longer 00:09:26.66\00:09:30.63 needed sacrificial lambs did we And at that point when the 00:09:30.67\00:09:34.57 curtain the lamb escaped that was almost to be sacrificed on 00:09:34.60\00:09:38.41 the altar there in the Jerusalem temple. The true Lamb had come 00:09:38.44\00:09:42.41 and our sins had killed Him. Wow! There was only one High 00:09:42.44\00:09:47.95 Priest now that was needed and that was Jesus. Jesus was our 00:09:47.98\00:09:52.32 High Priest and only the high priest was allowed to look or go 00:09:52.35\00:09:55.52 into the Most Holy Place, right? And even then only at certain 00:09:55.56\00:09:59.13 times, right? Jesus was our real High Priest and when the temple 00:09:59.16\00:10:03.97 curtain tore in between the Holy and the Most Holy Place everyone 00:10:04.00\00:10:08.07 could see then into the Most Holy Place. And that was showing 00:10:08.10\00:10:11.24 that everyone can now go before God. We don't need someone else 00:10:11.27\00:10:14.64 to pray for us. We can pray directly to God. Now let's 00:10:14.68\00:10:18.51 pretend that this is the curtain right? Let's say that it had 00:10:18.55\00:10:22.38 torn from bottom to top. Well someone could have argued well 00:10:22.42\00:10:27.12 somebody just got their knife or their...I don't know what they 00:10:27.16\00:10:31.99 would have used back then, right Their gardening utensil and they 00:10:32.03\00:10:35.63 just did a little rip in it and they tore it all the way up. 00:10:35.66\00:10:37.97 That's humanly possible, right? But these curtains were so tall 00:10:38.00\00:10:41.37 that unless you had a ladder or something very tall to stand on 00:10:41.40\00:10:44.11 there was no way that a human could have torn the curtain from 00:10:44.14\00:10:47.68 top to bottom. That was Divine intervention. That was an angel 00:10:47.71\00:10:52.18 that did that, right? And it was very symbolic and it's pretty 00:10:52.21\00:10:56.22 cool to see what that meant. Now the earth quaked and the 00:10:56.25\00:11:00.82 righteous people's graves opened up and Mary and the disciples 00:11:00.86\00:11:04.83 and the friends wished at that point that they could die too 00:11:04.86\00:11:08.00 along with their Savior. They were so sad. During those three 00:11:08.03\00:11:14.34 dark hours He said it was finished and it was really 00:11:14.37\00:11:17.11 interesting because there was a soldier by the cross who 00:11:17.14\00:11:18.61 actually really gave a testimony in that he said: So when the 00:11:18.64\00:11:23.95 centurion who stood opposite Jesus saw that He cried like 00:11:23.98\00:11:27.95 this and breathed His last, he said, truly this man was the Son 00:11:27.98\00:11:32.39 of God. This was a heathen Roman saying the truth out loud. The 00:11:32.42\00:11:37.36 truth that Pilot, the truth that Herod, the truth that even the 00:11:37.39\00:11:40.86 disciples hadn't been able to say was said by a Roman 00:11:40.90\00:11:44.57 centurion. That was found in Mark 15 verse 39. Now you 00:11:44.60\00:11:51.21 remember that the Jewish leaders didn't want to go into the court 00:11:51.24\00:11:55.74 of Romans because they'd be defiled. Well they also didn't 00:11:55.78\00:12:00.55 want anybody to be hanging on the cross during the Sabbath 00:12:00.58\00:12:04.52 because that was also wrong according to their rules. Not to 00:12:04.55\00:12:07.32 kill someone but to leave the body on the cross on the Sabbath 00:12:07.36\00:12:10.09 And so they wanted to take the bodies down at that point and 00:12:10.13\00:12:14.10 Jesus has already died and so what happens when people die. 00:12:14.13\00:12:17.57 Well we have to make funeral arrangements or at least burial 00:12:17.60\00:12:21.44 arrangements, right? And back then they would bury people in a 00:12:21.47\00:12:25.57 tomb and this is kind of what it may have looked like, right? 00:12:25.61\00:12:29.64 So it was like a cave kind of. They may have hewn it out of the 00:12:29.68\00:12:34.52 rock or it might have been a natural cave. And then to close 00:12:34.55\00:12:38.22 it they would just put a stone in front of the entrance, right? 00:12:38.25\00:12:40.32 And so let's jump right back into our story in the Bible in 00:12:40.36\00:12:44.86 John 19 verse 31. John 19 verse 31 says: Therefore because it 00:12:44.89\00:12:50.60 was the preparation day, that's Friday. We call it the 00:12:50.63\00:12:52.90 preparation day at our house too That the bodies should not 00:12:52.93\00:12:56.00 remain on the cross on the Sabbath for the Sabbath was a 00:12:56.04\00:12:58.84 high day and the Jews asked Pilot that their legs be broken 00:12:58.87\00:13:01.41 and that they might be taken away. Then the soldiers came and 00:13:01.44\00:13:04.51 broke the legs of the first and the other who was crucified with 00:13:04.55\00:13:07.35 Him. The two thieves on either side, right? But when they came 00:13:07.38\00:13:10.09 to Jesus and saw He was already dead they did not break His legs 00:13:10.12\00:13:13.05 but one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear and 00:13:13.09\00:13:16.79 immediately blood and water came out. And he who has seen has 00:13:16.83\00:13:20.20 seen has testified and his testimony is true and he knows 00:13:20.23\00:13:23.40 that what he is telling is the truth for these things were done 00:13:23.43\00:13:26.13 that the scripture should be fulfilled. This was actually a 00:13:26.17\00:13:28.70 prophecy in the Old Testament that not one of His bones should 00:13:28.74\00:13:32.64 be broken. And so they were ready to take them down. Now 00:13:32.67\00:13:37.71 they broke the legs of the other two so that they would die more 00:13:37.75\00:13:40.15 quickly because they had not died yet. Crucifixion was a slow 00:13:40.18\00:13:43.55 and very painful death. The disciples wanted Jesus to have a 00:13:43.59\00:13:47.72 proper respectful burial but they were too poor and they 00:13:47.76\00:13:52.16 would also need permission to get His body from the Romans 00:13:52.19\00:13:55.66 right? That's when two rich men stepped in to help. Two rich men 00:13:55.70\00:13:59.57 that they didn't even realize wanted to help them. And let's 00:13:59.60\00:14:02.80 continue reading in John 19 verses 38-40: After this Joseph 00:14:02.84\00:14:10.41 Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of 00:14:10.45\00:14:14.48 the Jews asked Pilot that he might take away the body of 00:14:14.52\00:14:17.39 Jesus and Pilot gave his permission. So he came and took 00:14:17.42\00:14:21.39 the body of Jesus. And Nicodemus who at first had come to Jesus 00:14:21.42\00:14:25.09 by night also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, 00:14:25.13\00:14:29.40 about a hundred pounds. Then they took the body of Jesus and 00:14:29.43\00:14:32.53 bound it in strips of linen with spices as was the custom of the 00:14:32.57\00:14:36.30 Jews to bury. Now in the place where He was crucified there was 00:14:36.34\00:14:39.57 a garden and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet 00:14:39.61\00:14:43.55 laid. So there they laid Jesus because of the Jews preparation 00:14:43.58\00:14:47.15 day for the tomb was nearby. So they did all those things for 00:14:47.18\00:14:51.55 Jesus, the things that the disciples couldn't afford to do. 00:14:51.59\00:14:53.82 Those two disciples, secret disciples had done that. And 00:14:53.86\00:14:57.53 they actually felt bad for not telling everyone they were 00:14:57.56\00:15:01.40 disciples sooner. They had done things in secret to try to help 00:15:01.43\00:15:04.13 save Jesus in the past but now they were really sharing that 00:15:04.17\00:15:08.40 they were disciples of Jesus, weren't they? And that was in 00:15:08.44\00:15:12.94 Joseph's own tomb, the tomb he was supposed to lay in when he 00:15:12.97\00:15:15.38 died one day. Jesus rested on the Sabbath there in the tomb, 00:15:15.41\00:15:19.88 sleeping, the sleep of death, right? And just like at creation 00:15:19.91\00:15:24.52 when He rested on the Sabbath He was again giving us an 00:15:24.55\00:15:26.62 example of what we should do. But then, let's flip over to 00:15:26.65\00:15:31.56 Luke 23 and find out what happens next in our story. All 00:15:31.59\00:15:35.40 the gospels talk about this very exciting story, don't they? 00:15:35.43\00:15:38.20 And they all share a little bit different perspective and 00:15:38.23\00:15:41.27 different things about it which is really cool. If you've seen 00:15:41.30\00:15:45.14 an event and your friend has seen the same thing you're going 00:15:45.17\00:15:47.71 remember different things about it, right? And so that's the 00:15:47.74\00:15:51.35 same thing with the disciples. Luke 23:54-56 says: Woop let's 00:15:51.38\00:15:58.92 go to the correct verse here. Because that's 22. We were back 00:15:58.95\00:16:03.43 another chapter, have mercy. Luke 23, let's try this again. 00:16:03.46\00:16:08.16 Luke 23:54, here we go okay verse 55: And the women who had 00:16:08.20\00:16:14.37 come with Him from Galilee followed after and they observed 00:16:14.40\00:16:16.57 the tomb and how His body was laid. Then they returned and 00:16:16.60\00:16:20.91 prepared spices and fragrant oils and they rested on the 00:16:20.94\00:16:23.11 Sabbath according to the commandment. So there the women 00:16:23.14\00:16:25.68 saw where He had been laid, right? All right. Let's keep 00:16:25.71\00:16:31.65 reading this very exciting story Pilot, what's everybody thinking 00:16:31.69\00:16:34.79 at this point, right? Pilot really didn't think much of his 00:16:34.82\00:16:37.33 actions. He had done many hateful, wicked things like this 00:16:37.36\00:16:39.56 in the past. The priests and rulers were actually not as 00:16:39.59\00:16:42.33 happy as they thought they were going to be. They were actually 00:16:42.36\00:16:45.10 really afraid because they remembered something. The tomb 00:16:45.13\00:16:47.97 was sealed, there was 100 Roman soldiers guarding it. Yet they 00:16:48.00\00:16:51.87 remembered that Jesus had said when He was on earth that He was 00:16:51.91\00:16:54.68 going to rise again in three days. Many people were 00:16:54.71\00:16:59.05 disappointed at Jesus' death and very sad. And the disciples had 00:16:59.08\00:17:05.02 forgotten that promise though, the one that the Jewish leaders 00:17:05.05\00:17:07.62 remembered about Him rising from the dead in three days. 00:17:07.66\00:17:10.33 The disciples had forgotten that They had forgotten what was 00:17:10.36\00:17:14.30 called the sign of Jonah. You remember how many days that 00:17:14.33\00:17:17.40 Jonah was in the belly of the whale. That's right, three days 00:17:17.43\00:17:20.97 and three nights. And in Jewish times the beginning or the 00:17:21.00\00:17:25.97 ending of a day marked one day so Friday was the first day. 00:17:26.01\00:17:29.64 Sabbath was the second day, but then Sabbath at sunset began the 00:17:29.68\00:17:35.78 third day. That's when Sunday started was at sunset according 00:17:35.82\00:17:39.89 to Jewish tradition Just like we celebrate that Sabbath starts at 00:17:39.92\00:17:43.73 sunset on Friday night, right? And the Roman soldiers were at 00:17:43.76\00:17:48.86 the grave. It was the middle of the night right? Well sunset 00:17:48.90\00:17:54.00 would have been the middle of the night or towards the 00:17:54.04\00:17:55.47 beginning of the night and then as the night wore on the Roman 00:17:55.50\00:17:58.81 soldiers were there but there was also two invisible armies 00:17:58.84\00:18:01.28 there. Satan remembered what Jesus had said as well and 00:18:01.31\00:18:04.98 Satan's angels were there. But so were God's angels. Let's flip 00:18:05.01\00:18:09.52 over to Matthew 28. Ooo we're getting to the good part folks. 00:18:09.55\00:18:12.69 This is so exciting. Matthew 28:2-4 says: And behold there 00:18:12.72\00:18:18.63 was another great earthquake and the angel of the Lord descended 00:18:18.66\00:18:21.46 from heaven and came and rolled back the stone from the door and 00:18:21.50\00:18:25.47 sat on it. I love that part, a little detail, the angel sat on 00:18:25.50\00:18:28.44 the stone. His countenance was like lightning and his clothing 00:18:28.47\00:18:31.41 was as white as snow. And the guards shook for fear and they 00:18:31.44\00:18:34.94 became like dead men. Dead men, they just keeled over. They just 00:18:34.98\00:18:38.61 fell down because they couldn't look at the brightness. And the 00:18:38.65\00:18:42.72 guards shook for fear but the angel answered and said to the 00:18:42.75\00:18:46.62 women, Do not be afraid for I know that you seek Jesus who was 00:18:46.65\00:18:51.69 crucified. Right? What happened at this point? The stone was 00:18:51.73\00:18:54.76 rolled away and Jesus was alive. A mighty angel rolled away the 00:18:54.80\00:18:59.73 stone, scared soldiers fell down the Son of God, Jesus' angels 00:18:59.77\00:19:04.37 called, God's angels called, Son of God, come forth, Thy Father 00:19:04.41\00:19:07.58 calls thee. Another angel unwrapped Jesus's body from all 00:19:07.61\00:19:11.68 those grave clothes, just like Lazarus had had on too right? 00:19:11.71\00:19:14.98 And Jesus carefully folded them there and Jesus walked out of 00:19:15.02\00:19:20.42 the tomb. Victorious. Praise God The angels rejoiced and sang and 00:19:20.46\00:19:25.79 bowed down and the soldiers saw and heard this whole thing 00:19:25.83\00:19:30.70 unfold in front of their eyes. Jesus shouted forth, I am the 00:19:30.73\00:19:34.90 resurrection and the life. The soldiers started back 00:19:34.94\00:19:38.07 to Jerusalem 00:19:38.11\00:19:39.44 to tell Pilot and they told everyone along the way what they 00:19:39.47\00:19:41.68 had seen. But some heard and they told the priests about it 00:19:41.71\00:19:46.01 and they said, No, no, no, no, bring the soldiers here first 00:19:46.05\00:19:47.72 and they tried to bribe them to lie. And the soldiers decided to 00:19:47.75\00:19:51.65 do it. They decided to lie and say that the disciples had come 00:19:51.69\00:19:54.99 and stolen the body away. And the priests said that they would 00:19:55.02\00:19:57.46 protect them from Pilot but Pilot had found out the truth. 00:19:57.49\00:20:01.40 Pilot knew what had happened at the grave because someone else 00:20:01.43\00:20:04.50 had told him. And Jesus was alive, alive again, alive for 00:20:04.53\00:20:10.81 evermore. Nothing could quench those soldiers' initial 00:20:10.84\00:20:16.14 testimony. News spread that Jesus was alive. Wow! Christ had 00:20:16.18\00:20:22.68 to suffer and rise again from the dead and He did that for us. 00:20:22.72\00:20:26.65 Amen. ¤ ¤ 00:20:26.69\00:20:32.63 Thank you so much, Miss Michelle for that Bible story.
