God's Big Story of Easter -- Colossians 1:20 & John 20:1-18

In today's lesson we learn about ...
Easter / God’s Big Story --- Colossians 1;20 and John 20;1-18


We kick off the month with what Paul writes about Jesus in Colossians 1:20 and John 20:1-18.

On Easter Sunday, we want to make sure that kids know how they can have a relationship with Jesus. Throughout the entire Bible, we see God’s plan to make peace with us. In the second part the Colossians verse, Paul reminds us that it’s through what Jesus did on the cross that the world can be right with God again.

Our Bottom Line This Week Is: ... God Made Peace With Us.
 
God went to great lengths to fix what was wrong between us and Him.
When God looked across humanity and saw the brokenness of our relationship with Him, He proved He cared about us by sending Jesus, His only Son to die— to build a bridge and resolve the conflict that existed.
Now, Jesus is alive, and we can have a relationship with God that lasts forever.

Our Memory Verse This Month Is: ... "So Let Us Do All We Can To Live In Peace. And Let Us Work Hard To Build Up One Another"
 
Remember that Peace Is, Proving You Care More About Each Other Than Winning An Argument.

THE CONNECTION BETWEEN PEACE AND GOD’S CHARACTER, AS SHOWN THROUGH GOD’S BIG STORY

When Adam and Eve decided that their way was better than God’s way and broke God’s rule, they changed the relationship between God and His creation.
When once everything and everyone could be in the presence of God, now we were at odds with God.

God could have done anything He wanted, including wiping us out and starting over. But instead, God decided to make peace with us. Ultimately God did this through His Son, Jesus.
