Day 1- 01 THE STORY

Have you ever seen someone at you church get baptized? Or have you been baptized?
People choose to be baptized after they give their life to Jesus. Baptism doesn’t save you. It’s something you do after to tell everyone around you that Jesus is your Savior. Did you know Jesus was baptized? He is God so He didn’t need to get baptized, but He did it so everyone would be sure that He is God’s son.
Read Matthew 3:13-17
What happened after Jesus was baptized? What did God say? Where was God?

Day 2- 02 THE WITNESSES (#92dad9 BKG) (#ffffff Font)

You never have to wonder if Jesus is God’s son. God said it Himself, out loud and everyone who was there heard it and saw the sky open up. Cool, huh? All throughout Jesus’ life, people recognized that Jesus was God’s son. One of Jesus’ 12 disciples was Peter – he spent a lot of time with Jesus.
Read Matthew 16:15-16. What does Jesus ask Peter? What is Peter’s answer?

Ringing the bell at Kamp is a way you can tell others that you believe in Jesus. Read about it at the end of your book.

Day 3- 03 THE SOURCE

Jesus is God’s son, but He is also God!
Read John 1:1 and John 1:14
Who/what was in the beginning with God? Does the Bible say the Word was God?
In verse 14, what does it say the Word changes into?
Sometimes the Bible uses the word “flesh” to talk about humans because we are made of skin…in other words, flesh! Jesus is the “Word” these verses are talking about.
Jesus is God and He became flesh… human!
Why do you think it’s cool that God became human?

Day 4- 04 THE MOTIVE

Read John 3:16 and memorize
Do you believe that Jesus is God’s son? Do you believe that Jesus is God?
Your answer to these questions will be what helps you decide how you live your life! Jesus is the most important person to ever live, and many people don’t pay attention to Him because they don’t answer yes to those two questions!
