God never lies.While it’s important to know that God has the power to do anything, it’s also important to realize that God can’t lie or commit any other sin. God is holy, which means He is completely perfect (1 Samuel 2:2). There is nothing bad in Him. Because of this, lying would be against who God is—it would be against His nature.God has proven

The story of Jesus isn’t fiction or a made-up story. Jesus was a real man who lived on the earth over 2000 years ago. His story is the greatest!Jesus existed before He came to earth. In fact, the Bible tells us He was at the creation of the world (John 1:1-2). God sent Jesus to earth as a baby. He wasn’t an ordinary baby though. He was completely s

Inspired means spoken by God.If we discuss the way the word "inspired" is used in the Bible, we see that it talks about something that has been created by a supernatural force—which we know is really God. God gave the people who wrote down the Bible's words the exact thoughts and ideas that He wanted to share with us. This means that we can trust t

Only God knows where heaven is and how to get there.We say that heaven is "up," even though we could never ride a rocket high enough into space to reach heaven. Heaven isn't a part of our solar system or universe. It's in a completely different, perfect place. Nothing sinful or wrong or bad can be in heaven. If we believe in Jesus as the one who sa

The truth is found in Jesus.Truth is not something we make up. The truth is real and true. The Bible tells us Jesus is the truth. Jesus tells us: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6). The truth is only found in Jesus.Two-thousand years ago, there was a man named Pilate. He asked the sam

Jesus told a man not to say anything about a miracle he performed because He didn’t want the miracle to distract people from His teaching.In Mark 1:40–45, we can read about a man with a skin disease called leprosy who came to Jesus and asked to be healed. Leprosy was a very bad sickness, and it was so contagious that anyone with leprosy had to live

We can tell others about Jesus and His gift of salvation.As children of God, it is our privilege to tell people about the good news of Jesus, and to show the world Jesus’ kindness toward them. Matthew 5:16 says, "...Let your light shine so others can see it. Then they will see the good things you do. And they will bring glory to your Father who is

You receive the Holy Spirit when you believe in Jesus as your Savior.Receiving the Holy Spirit means God sends His Spirit—who is also God—to live inside of you. If you understand that Jesus is God’s Son who died on the cross to take the punishment for your sins and that He came back to life and returned to heaven, and if you put your faith and trus

We should not be angry with God, because everything He does is right.Most everyone will feel angry with God at some point. Maybe someone you love died and you miss that person very much. Or it could be that you didn’t get to do something fun or go on a really neat vacation. Or maybe God didn't answer your prayer the way you wanted Him to.It’s wrong

No, all religions do not lead to God. Only Jesus is the way to God (John 14:6).Jesus tells us He is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). Only by accepting Jesus as your Savior and Lord can you go to heaven. Jesus took the punishment sinners deserve—death—by dying on the cross. Then Jesus came back to life, showing He has won the victory ov

The breath of life is the life and power that God breathed into mankind that allows us to be alive.When God created Adam, He formed him out of the dust of the ground and then He breathed the breath of life into Adam (Genesis 2:7). This made Adam and all humans unique among all of God’s creation. We have the breath of life in us. God is the One who

Elijah was one of God's prophets.Elijah is one of the most well known prophets of the Lord. He was alive during a time of great evil in the world. Through Elijah's lifetime, he helped to end the false worship of Baal. Elijah had a difficult life and struggled with depression at times. Despite these obstacles, God uses Elijah to do great things.Elij

God made people to praise and enjoy Him.God wasn't lonely before He created us—He didn't need us. But He wanted to share His creation with someone who could praise Him for it! He loves us and wants to have a relationship with us. God created the first people, Adam and Eve, perfect and without sin. But after Adam and Eve disobeyed God (Genesis 3), w

God doesn’t need anything.God is the source of everything that’s good, so there’s nothing He requires to be content. God needs nothing. God lacks for nothing. God created the world so He could enjoy it, but He doesn’t need the world or any of the people in it.And yet, as we read the Bible, we see that He loves each of us very much and wants to have

Jesus prayed and God told Him who to pick as the twelve disciples.The twelve disciples followed Jesus for 3 years. They walked with Him and learned from Him. They watched His loving ways and saw His miracles that proved that He was Messiah.Just before choosing the twelve, “…Jesus went out to a mountainside to pray. He spent the night praying to God

In Old Testament times, the tradition or culture of the people was to call their children by a name that meant something.For example, Joshua means "God delivered," Jacob means "he cheats," and Peter means "rock." Parents wanted to name their children something that had meaning.The same applies to Jesus! He had many different things to do here on ea

Does Jesus love kids like you? Yes! He loves you and thinks you're important.Have you heard the song, "Jesus Loves the Little Children"? It goes like this: Jesus loves the little children All the children of the world Red and yellow Black and white They are precious in His sight. Jesus loves the little children Of the wo

Jesus was tempted, so that He would be able to understand our temptations and help us through them. We can learn many things from Jesus’ temptations.The main time we are told about Satan tempting Jesus was in the wilderness for 40 days. We can read about those temptations in Luke chapter 4. During those 40 days, Jesus was tempted in three common wa

Jesus performed miracles because He is God!Jesus was a person and God at the same time; He was God's own Son. Because of this, Jesus had all of the powers of God to do anything He wanted, including miracles. Jesus' miracles really did happen. He did them to prove to people that He was the Savior the Bible had promised and because He wanted to show

The Bible says that we can’t work for our salvation, because it is a free gift from God. Every person on earth has sinned (done wrong things), starting with the first people, Adam and Eve, in the Garden of Eden (see Genesis 3). Sin caused our relationship with God to be broken, and so we need someone who is perfect to pay the price for our sins so
