Judea and God sent the Angel Gabriel to a virgin from the village of Nasser has the virgins name was Mary the angel spoke to him sent. Oh you have found favor with God you will conceive and give to his solve and you will call his name Jesus can speak I am the finishing the least bit. For this reason the holy child will be called Salo of the most God His kingdom will never end. Days passed and Mary did become pregnant. Then news arrived the elderly cousin Elizabeth has been sick or after many years were also going to have a baby Mary hurried over the dusty roads to the beach with a cold end of Nazareth but by command of seasonal Gustus there will be conducted a census of the subject Teletubbies of Galilee and Judea. All men must register in the tunnel city where their ancestors were a ball. Is called for another journey for Mary and her husband Joseph more than a week by donkey over the hilly roads to Bethlehem to be registered and once they arrived there was no room for them in the local land as Mary's labor pains grew more frequent they finally settled into the stable to await the baby's birth. Outside the village a group of shepherds huddled near those sheep taking Tam's sleeping and watching the flock suddenly an angel of God of the. What is it that might. Come. To angels spoke to the terrified ship and. That day and day by day with. His life. Let's go down a bit to see what the. This broad great joint to the shepherds. The Jewish tradition had taught them the one day a messiah or Savior would be born into the world and restore the people of Israel. So they hunted off right away to find the newborn baby. And then the other shepherds soon locate in Joseph Mary and Jesus the baby wrapped tightly in a cloth laid in the rough manger. As the shepherds are 10 and they talked endlessly about the events of that night they praised God for the savior that had been sent everything they had seen and heard was just as the angel had said. When the days of purification according to the law the complete Mary and Joseph carried the infant north a few hours to the capital city Jerusalem lying high in the hills of Judea the Young family went to the massive temple the center of religious activity according to their law they were to dedicate their 1st born male to the Lord and to offer a sacrifice of God So pigeons as they entered a righteous and devout man named Simeon approached the Holy Spirit of God the promised Simeon that he would not die until he had seen the Messiah the one whom the Jews hoped to come into the world to forgive sins recognizing the baby Jesus as the chosen one Simeon took him in his arms and began to pray. The Lord now the chill servant departing peace according to your promise for my eyes have seen you all salvation this child is chosen by God. They will both be blessed. Several months later the new family returned to their home in Nazareth a country village in the north Mary often thought about the unusual events surrounding her son's birth she treasured all these things in her hot. Time pounced when Jesus was 12 years old his family went to Jerusalem to celebrate the passage of the feast the high point of the year when many of them for the nation's history was celebrated when the feast ended they left for home on the way they discovered that Jesus was missing for 3 wires and days Mary and Joseph searched the city of Jerusalem finally the anxious parents located Jesus in the temple Cove sitting among the religious teachers listening to them and asking them questions all who heard him well amazed at his understanding and his answers. Whose child is this who are ask such questions when his parents saw him they were astonished his mother said to him Son Why have you done this to us your father and I have been terribly Why are you trying to find de. Why were you looking for me didn't you know that I must have my father. And so Jesus for town to Nazareth with his parish grew in wisdom in stature and in favor. During the 15th year of the rule of the Roman emperor type areas when Jesus was about 30 years old God's word came to John the child of Mary sconce and Elizabeth John spoke to large crowds about the need to turn away from all sin be baptized with water and such apart from God They called him John the Baptist away from you all. Be baptized I. Will put gave your St John's message brought him to the banks of the Jordan River a natural place to speak to large groups of people back ties with more. Who believe his mouth. As it is written in the book of the prophet. Someone is shouting in the days that. Don't break lol. Make us break for him to travel. Bring back leave must be filled up every His mountain leveled all. The winding roads must be made straight. Made smooth. I know cause. Salvation. What should we do yes turn us what must we did what do you want us to do. The weather has 2 shirts must give one to the man who has none. And whoever has food must share it. Teacher. We are tax collectors What shall we do. Don't collect more than is legal in the crown there were Roman soldiers who also had questions and one of us when we did it don't take money from anyone by force and don't accuse anyone mostly. Be content with your pay. And. Baptize you with water but someone is coming who is much greater than I am. I'm not good enough even to on time his son don't. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and. He has his threshing fork with the him fresh out all the grain and gather the wheat into his body as a people would be that Jesus opposed 2nd coming from Nazareth in Galilee to be baptized by John the George John agree to cause. As Jesus a match from water he become to. The Spirits of God the donkey. In food. Jesus was led by the Spirit of God into the desert where for 40 days he was tempted by the devil he ate nothing during those days and he was hungry when the devil approached him saying if you are God's order this tended to bring. Jesus answered him from the Scriptures it is written that man shall not live by bread alone but by every word of God. Then in a brief moment of time the devil showed Jesus all the nations of the world and said I will give you all this Noah's flood this is old and handed over to me and I can give it to anyone I. Know this will be yours. This is written shall worship the Lord your God and Him only shot himself. Minus the devil took Jesus to the highest point on the massive stone temple in the capital city of Jerusalem and said to him if you are God's Son threw yourself down from. The Scripture says God will want to he's anxious to take good care they will load you up with. No teeth and no feet because all this. Scripture says You shall love the Lord your God to the test. Some time after his spiritual testing of Jesus he journeyed north to Nasser of the country village where he had spent his childhood. On the week a holy day called The Sabbath Jesus went to the local place of worship and instruction the synagogue after request of the synagogue Ada he read from the Scriptures the spirit of the Lord is upon because he has chosen me to bring good news to the fall he has sent me to reclaim release to the captives and recovery of sights of the. To set at liberty those who are oppressed and announce that the time has come when the old will save his peoples He speaks well this passage of Scripture has come true today as you heard it being read the script just come true but only the Messiah can fulfill the promise comes we know how close you approach belonging to Simon and ask him to push the boat out a little from the shore then he sat down and told the people from the boat when he had finished speaking he said to Simon push the boat out father to the deep water then you and your partners let down your nets for a catch Oh must we work hard all night long and coat nothing. But if you say so I'll let down the nets. Was Jesus on board they obeyed his instructions. Fish caught in the nets until the nets were filled to the point of breaking. To. Get. They came but so far that they began to see. The miracle overwhelm sign a piece of humble fell down before Jesus overcome with respect to go away from me go on. I am a sinful man don't be afraid from now on you'll be catching. Due to his unusual teaching about God and his compassion towards so many out costs of society Jesus gathered large crowds wherever he went $1.00 day he and his followers neared a small city where a blind beggar sat by the road hey what's happening what's going on he's a Nazareth his passing by. Jesus. Jesus son of David was much younger. He's a stopped and ordered the man be brought to him when he came yet Jesus asked him what he wanted me to do for him. I want to see you again. And see. Your face as nature. Like. The miracles that Jesus did supported his claim that he was indeed God's Son His close follow is identified him as the Messiah God's Chosen One. Jesus passed through the city of Jericho on his way to Jerusalem for the passive a celebration launched festive crowds met him everywhere many are asked about how to find forgiveness for their sins and gain entrance into God's Kingdom this man Truth is a profound I must save me save. Based on a wealthy but dishonest tax collector named cicadas was living in Jericho he was very eager to see Jesus and being a short man he could not see over the crowd filling the city streets so he climbed one of the many large trees in town to get above the other people. Stood tax cut like Jesus stuck under the tree and looked out. 30 towns I can't find a stay in your house today I am. Overjoyed to Chios climb down and happily welcome Jesus to his house but the crowds were. Tax collectors but known to cheat their own people. No other religious leader would ever be seen with such a hated representative of the realm and oppresses. The compassion that Jesus showed as a kid this affected him greatly. Because. I would give half of my belongings to the pot and the 5 cheated anyone. I wanted. Back 4 times as much. They will mock him interesting shamefully and spit upon. He would be whipped and kept. By us. Here in Jerusalem Jesus chose to travel into the city riding up on a yacht and dunking this fulfill the prophecy from 500 years before about a victorious keep entering the city upon. The surrounding Jesus to function. Called King. The king comes in the name of. Some religious leaders and began to complain that Jesus preached come join their cycles to be quiet I tell you that if they were to be by stones themselves would begin shouting. This. Silence of a son of. God. But as Jesus approached Jerusalem he stopped and looked out over the city. He wept as he predicted its destruction because so many did not accept him as their Messiah. This you want to you have no peace she got sick. And as well the lamb pasta surrounds. Him passing out from every side. And with these walls around strong can touch. And they will not leave one stone The political and religious leaders of the city felt increasing concern about Jesus's following because his popularity was growing I understand that many have already hailed him as king king of beggars holes and thieves we see his kind before they come they make claims they go there forgotten the blind is following is growing by the day people have money and think he is a keen let me give you a warning if this man should threaten the peace that I shall look to you. Babs he's right. It's time we confronted the counter. Each day Jesus talked in the temple come to me and listen to my words. Hear me and you shall have a knife. Seek the Lord while He may be found call on him while he is near. Dead to make it 1st take his way and the un righteous man his thoughts and let him return to the north and he will have compassion on. For he will abundantly power. To go out with joy and he led forth in. One day a group of religious leaders approach Jesus challenging his right to teach and do miracles tell us what right do you have to say these things who gave you thoughts right now let me ask you a question tell me did John was right about ties come from God or from. The leaders moved back to discuss the work of John the Baptist in private. We sat. Down he will say why then don't you believe John. But if we say from the man this whole crowd here will start their own convinced that John was a prophet the puzzled leaders returned to Jesus We don't know where it came from Neither will I tell you that by one right I see. Knowing the dishonesty of some religious leaders Jesus ignored them and began telling a story there was once a man who planted a vineyard rented out to tenants and then left home for a long time. His listeners knew the scene well then yobs grew on fertile hillsides terrorist with drunks wealthy landowners lease the land to tenants under the condition that the tenants would share part of the harvest with the landowner. When the time came to gather the grapes he sent a slave to the tenants to receive from them his share of the Homs but the tenants speak the same and send him back without a thing so he sent another say. But the tenants beat him too treated him shamefully and sent him back without a thing and he sent a 3rd slave but the tenants room did him too I'm sure him. And the owner of the vignettes had himself a try do I will send my own dear son. Surely they will respect him. When the tenants saw him coming they said to one another this is the only son that's killed him and his property will be Alice. As monos. So they threw him out of the bin yard and killed him. What will the owner of the vineyard do to those tenants. He will come and kill those men and give the Vineyard over to other tenants. What then does this strip Jimmy. The stone which the builders rejected as worthless turned out to be the most important of all . Every one who falls on that Stone movie broken to pieces and if that stone falls on someone in. There some religious leaders wanted to arrest Jesus right then because they knew he told his stories about them but others were afraid of his popularity so they decided instead to try to trick him. Teacher We know that what you say and teach is right we know that you pay no attention to man's status but you teach the truth about God's will for man tell us is it against on all for us to pay taxes to the Roman Empire Oh no. Mr news page of the world is forever the focus if they believe the paying money to Caesar was against their religious law. Yet if Jesus gave public support to this popularity he could be charged with rebellion against the government in time never to the Roman authorities because he says responded quickly to me Silva calling. Whose face and name on the zoning. Men give to Caesar the things that Jesus and to God things that are God's. The religious leaders were amazed at the Web's of Jesus on one occasion he paused outside the temple to watch people bring their gifts of worship to God And among those who came was a poor widow who brought her to small callings it very little come to give more all I tell you. That this whole widow put in more than all the others for the others offered their gifts from what they had despaired of their riches but she poor as she is put in all that she had to live on. The chief priests and the teachers of the law continue to plot to have Jesus could best solution came from one of his 12 disciples the devil entered into Judas Iscariot and he met secretly with the priests and agreed to betray Jesus as the key pieces of so. At this time the Jews began to celebrate the Ponce with a feast Peter and John the too close his followers of Jesus was sent to bring back a lab and make other preparations for the meal then Jesus and the 12 disciples gathered in the large upper room of the house and reclined around the table. I have wanted so much to eat this apostle the meal with you before I suffer. 510. I will never eat it again until it is given it's for meaning in the kingdom of God. To me in itself was an important ceremony it was a reminder of Israel's deliverance from slavery in Egypt more than a 1000 years before it also foretold a future deliverance by a long awaited Messiah who would forgive their sins and establish His Kingdom. During the meal Jesus took some bread and prayed over it. Bless it I'll use the Lord our God King of the universe brings forth bread from us. This is my body which is given for you. Do this and remembrance of me. Jesus broke the bread and pasta to each of his followers then he offered them which when he meets. Simon listen Satan has begged God and asked to have all of you to sift you as wheat is sifted trying your face but I have prayed for you Simon that your face may not fail someone you have turned back to me you must strengthen your brother load I am ready to go to prison with you and to die with you Tash. The call will not close this day before that you shall stream tines deny that you know me. When I send you out that small bag of shoes did you lack any no nothing but now whoever has a purse full bag must take and whoever has no sword must sell his mantle. For I tell you it is written in the Scriptures and he was counted among the transgressors and what was written about me is coming. That night Jesus and his followers left Jerusalem and went to the Mount of Olives to predict turning from the road they entered a small enclosed. Me a biased a large stone device used to crush olives for oil it had given the god in its name get 70 meaning oil press Jesus quotient is followers pray that you may not enter into temptation. Knowing that the time of his betrayal and execution was coming soon Jesus moved a short distance from his followers and now to. Suffer . Scott from a. Mass. In his agony Jesus broke into his hands the great drops Fowler's blood to the ground. And Angel came from heaven to strengthen him. When he got off Jesus found that his father was. And why are you sleeping. Get up. And pray that you do not fall into temptation. Suddenly a whole company of priests and gods approached led by Jews. The disloyal disciples bound his hands his followers fled fearful for their lives. Through the dark deserted streets of Jerusalem the soldiers rushed Jesus to the house of the High Priest dog him while Peter followed at a distance right into. A large fire bams me about as the gods prepared for a long night. He joined the self and sitting around the fire out until someone recognized him. This man to was with Jesus. I judge even know him I sold them together. The gods blindfolded Jesus and began to beat him. Later that night as Peter Pace nervously around the palace grounds someone else noticed him. Well one of them. But I am not. Meanwhile the High Council of religious leaders quickly assembled an official was sent to get the prisoner from the sneering dance. Servants. Stop it stop it I said bring him before the council go. The council leaders began to question Jesus tennis. The Messiah. Guy. He will not believe me. I ask you a question he will not answer me but from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right side of Almighty God. Oh you then the Son of God. To say that I am. Who gives him the authority to say that. We ourselves of what he said. We will take in the part yes yes yes yes. Yes as Jesus was led away a man in the crowd pointed out Peter there is no doubt that this man was with Jesus because He is also a Galilean I don't know what. What you talking about. Jesus to look to his fellow. Peter remember the projection. From the stage before the times of the night which. Peter fled from because John. Is. In the early morning a group of Temple gods hurried through the narrow passage ways of Jerusalem pushing a lone mountain towards the presidents of pilot the Roman covenant of Judea move pilot was known for the execution of thousands and he cared little for the shoes what do you want here at this hour of the morning we cook this man deceiving up people he caused an uproar in the temple market what will be his punishment sentencing. Room and officials have little interest in local religious arguments until civil order fell apart I see no reason to condemn this man Now the reason The excuses of Jesus took him to Herod spotless Herod was greatly pleased. That you say you want all of those you call your all disciples. It is said by many you can before minutes old. Do one for me Jesus said nothing but the religious leaders officials and priests could not keep silent as. He has been corrupting all the people he calls himself the king. And. King. Herod began to insult Jesus and humiliate him by draping a scholar robe around back. Magic. Like him last. Sent him back to. This is called it. By the time Jesus the gods and religious leaders returned to pilots quarters a huge crowd of gathered military officials possible celebrants and many others now stood before his judgment seat yet pilot was still not willing to condemn Jesus this man has done nothing to deserve death. I will have him whipped and let him go . Influenced by the religious leaders the crowd had a different request. To respond. else to carry them with.
