Day 1- YOU ARE COMING WITH ME

Read Luke 23:39-43
How did one of the thieves on the cross defend Jesus? What did Jesus say to him?
The thief deserved to be on the cross. He had been bad all his life, yet at the last moment, he believed in Jesus. Does this give you hope for people who don’t believe in Jesus?

Day 2- IT IS FINISHED

Read John 19:16-42
What happened at Jesus’ crucifixion? How did they bury Jesus?
Jesus didn’t deserve death, yet He did it for you. Write down your thoughts.

I PROMISE YOU

John 3:16 is the most well-known verse in the Bible, and it really explains what happened on the cross with the two thieves. God wants no one to perish, but all to have eternal life. One thief was testing God all the way to the end. He wanted to see God come off the cross to believe. He didn’t understand that Jesus had to go through with the cross. Jesus could have easily come off that cross, but He chose not to for our sake. If He didn’t go through with the crucifixion, we could not have salvation. Wanting none to perish, Jesus ignored the thief’s challenge and continued to endure the cross. The other thief is an example that it doesn’t matter what type of a past you have, you just have to believe in Jesus as your Savior. It is a true promise that no matter what you have done, God will forgive your sins. Unlike Christ, this thief deserved to be on the cross for his evil lifestyle, but realized his sin and knew he needed Jesus.

Day 3- THERE IS NO ONE HERE

Read Matthew 28:1-15
Did Jesus conquer death?
Read 1 Peter 1:3-4. What does this mean for you?
Do you believe you need Jesus as your Savior?

Day 4- IT’S REALLY ME (#ffffff BKG) (#ef4123 Font)

Read John 20:19-29
What did it take for Thomas to believe?
Do you believe that Jesus really resurrected from the dead?

DID YOU KNOW

Jesus showed up on earth the first time as an infant and a carpenter’s son. He wasn’t this big, strong man, and He didn’t rule the world. He first had to save us from our sin so we could be a part of His Kingdom when He rules the world.  Read Revelation 19 to see what it will be like when He returns. He is coming as the King of Kings this time and no one will miss that it’s Him.

Day 5- SEE YA SOON

Read Acts 1:1-11
What happened after Jesus resurrected and spent time with His disciples?
What is promised in verse 11?
Read John 14:3. Jesus will come back soon, but in the meantime, He is preparing a place for you!

WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE?

Do you believe Jesus is the Son of God? Do you believe He is your Savior? Take some time to write out or think about if you believe Jesus is who He says He is. If you need help, grab someone who you look up to for their faith and ask them why they believe in Jesus.
