[Music] the story of Easter this is Jesus who is the Son of God and the savior of the world while Jesus was on Earth he taught everyone about God's love and healed people from their sickness he did many miracles like calming storms and even raised people from the dead wahoo [Music] Jesus and his disciples stopped in a town and Jesus told two of his disciples to go on ahead of them okay he told them to go into a village and that they would see a young donkey that no one had ever ridden Rock told him to untie it and bring it to him [Music] if anyone asks what are you doing he told them to just say the Lord needs it and we'll return it soon so the disciples did what Jesus said and brought him the donkey a long time ago before Jesus was even born God had said that the Savior the king of Israel would come to Israel in this way and now Jesus was doing just as God had said the news that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem swept through the city many heard about all the amazing things he had done so they cut palm branches and ran to see him [Music] the Pharisees and religious rulers realized that there was nothing they could do for everyone was going to see Jesus Jesus rode into the city of Jerusalem and the crowd spread their coats on the road ahead of him his followers began to shout and sing as they walked along praising God for all the wonderful Miracles they had seen the Pharisees were upset and they told Jesus to stop the people from saying things like that but Jesus said if they keep quiet the stones along the road would burst into tears so the people kept on singing blessings on the king who comes in the name of the Lord praise God in highest heaven [Music] entire city of Jerusalem was in an uproar as he entered asking who is this and the crowds replied it's Jesus and Jesus rode the donkey through the street of Jerusalem to the temple in a triumphal entry just as God said he would many years before the Jewish leaders and teachers did not like what Jesus was doing or how he claimed to be the son of God [Music] so they made a plan to arrest him to get rid of him once and for all Judas one of Jesus's disciples agreed to betray Jesus come in come in and give him over to the religious leaders for some money at this time the Jewish people were celebrating a festival called Passover that had been celebrated since the time of Moses when God brought his people out of Egypt so Jesus was going to Jerusalem to celebrate the disciples asked Jesus where he wanted to eat the Passover meal that night Jesus said as you go into the city A man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you at all follow him house he enters say to the owner the teacher asks where is the guest room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples he will take you upstairs to a large room that is already set up that is where you should prepare our meal the disciples found everything to be just as Jesus had said [Music] later that evening Jesus arrived with the 12 disciples they sat down to eat and Jesus said that he was happy to be with everyone Jesus got up from the table took off his robe and began to wash his disciples feet Jesus loved his disciples and he knew the time was coming for him to leave them and return to heaven [Music] when Jesus came to Peter he said are you going to wash my feet Jesus said you don't understand what I'm doing now but someday you will [Music] Peter said you will never wash my feet but Jesus then told him that unless he washed his feet he would not belong to him oh well then oh God then Peter said then wash my hands and head as well not just my feet but Jesus told him that was not necessary he just needed to wash his feet for Peter to become clean so Jesus finished washing their feet and said that the disciples should do to others as he had done for them he told them to follow the example that he had set for them to serve each other and not think of themselves as greater than any other then God would bless them for doing as Jesus had taught them to do as they were eating Jesus took some bread and blessed it he said take it for this is my body which is given for you Jesus told them to do this to help remember him cup of wine and gave thanks to God for it and he said to his disciples this is my blood it is poured out as a sacrifice to forgive the sins of many Jesus said one of you eating with me here will betray me he told them that things were supposed to happen this way but that great sadness would await the one who betrays him the disciples were very upset and asked am I the one who is he talking about Judas asked Jesus am I the one and Jesus said you have said it [Music] one of the disciples asked Jesus Lord who is it Jesus said it was the one who he would give the bread to he gave the bread to Judas and Jesus said hurry and do what you're going to do none of the others at the table knew what Jesus meant so Judas left at once to betray Jesus then Jesus comforted and encouraged the disciples he promised them that they would have a helper come when Jesus was gone they all sang a song to God together knew the time had come for him to die as the scriptures had said long ago so he went with his disciples to an Olive Grove called Gethsemane and Jesus said sit here while I go to pray he took Peter James and John with him and he was very distressed and troubled he asked them to stay with him and keep watch meaning he wanted them to stay awake with him he went a little farther on and prayed he cried out Abba Father everything is possible for you please take this cup of suffering away from me yet I want your will to be done not mine then an angel from heaven appeared and strengthened Jesus then Jesus prayed even harder and was suffering greatly he went back to his disciples and they were all asleep oh he said to Peter couldn't you watch with me even one hour keep watch and pray so that you will not give in to Temptation and then Jesus left them again to pray the same as he did before he went back to the disciples after he had prayed and found them sleeping again the disciples didn't know what to say so Jesus went away a third time praying the same things again when he went back to his disciples he said go ahead and sleep but look the time has come for Judas the disciple who was betraying Jesus was coming with men to arrest Jesus Judas showed them who Jesus was Jesus was arrested and taken to the rulers of the land so that they could decide what to do with him Jesus was presented before the High Council and they asked him if he was the Messiah the savior of the Jews they asked him if he was claiming to be the son of God say that I am and the council was Furious and they shouted that Jesus was guilty and he deserves to die so they took Jesus before the Roman ruler pilot he heard the case against Jesus pilate didn't think that Jesus had done anything wrong they found him to be innocent so pilate said that he would punish Jesus and then release him but the crowd kept screaming louder and louder who crucify him we want him dead and because of the pressure of the crowd pilate turned Jesus over to the Roman soldiers to be crucified Jesus was hurt and spit on his clothes were torn and taken from him and a crown made out of thorns was put on his head he was beaten so badly that he could barely stand on his own and then he was forced to carry his cross so far up a mountain that he needed help because he could not do it on his own once Jesus made it to the place where he would be crucified called the skull the soldiers around him nailed him to the cross and waited for him to die while Jesus was hanging on the cross many people shouted to him if you really are the Son of God save yourself from the cross but Jesus knew he had to die to forgive his people for their sins at noon Darkness fell across the whole land three hours later Jesus took his last breath and finally died [Music] at that very moment the curtain in the temple that separated the priests from God's holy Place tore into a soldier watching the whole thing said this man truly was the son of God foreign then a righteous man named Joseph came and placed Jesus's body in a tomb three days passed and it seemed that there was no hope [Music] but very early on Sunday morning the woman who cared for Jesus went to go visit his body and found that his tomb was empty and that he was no longer there Don't Be Afraid said an angel he is not here he is risen at this the woman remembered that Jesus had told them that he would rise again on the third day and ran to go tell the disciples what they had seen and heard Jesus appeared to hear two disciples to show them that he was alive that same day two of Jesus's followers were walking to a village called Emmaus and talking about everything that had happened with Jesus as they were talking Jesus suddenly came and walked with them well but God kept them from recognizing Jesus Jesus asked them what they were talking about the two men were very sad one of them whose name was cleopas said you must be the only person in Jerusalem who hasn't heard about all the things that have happened there in the last few days oh Jesus asked what things the men replied the things that happened to Jesus and they began to tell Jesus about everything that had happened to him they told him that some women had gone to his tomb and said that his body was missing and that others had gone to see if it was true and saw that his body really was gone then Jesus said to them you foolish people you find it so hard to believe all that the prophets wrote in the scriptures oh let me explain then Jesus took them through the writings of Moses and all the prophets explaining from all the scriptures the things concerning himself by this time they were nearing Emmaus Jesus acted as if he was continuing on hey wait but the men begged him to stay the night with them because it was getting late oh okay so Jesus went home with them and as they sat down to eat Jesus blessed the bread then he broke the bread and gave it to them suddenly their eyes were open and they recognized Jesus hello and at that moment he disappeared where'd he go the men said to each other didn't our hearts burn within us as he explained the scriptures to us come on and that hour they made their way back to Jerusalem they found the eleven and the others who were with them and told them their story as they were telling their story Jesus was suddenly standing among them well that's how it happened yep everyone was frightened and thought he was a ghost okay come on guys but Jesus showed that it was really him he showed them his hands and feet and they all watched him in awe then Jesus asked for something to eat oh got anything to eat and they gave him fish to eat oh that's good Jesus reminded them that everything happened as it was supposed to and helped them understand the scriptures then he promised to send them the Holy Spirit and told them to stay in Jerusalem until the Holy Spirit would come and fill them with the power from heaven one of the 12 disciples Thomas was not with the others when Jesus came later the disciples told Thomas we have seen the Lord Thomas said I won't believe it unless I see the nail wounds in his hands put my fingers into them and place my hand into the wound in his side [Music] eight days later the disciples were together again and this time Thomas was with them the doors were locked but suddenly as before Jesus was standing among them oh hey gosh peace be with you he said then Jesus said to Thomas put your finger here and look at my hands put your hand into the wound in my side don't be faithless any longer believe Thomas said my Lord and my God then Jesus told him you believe because you have seen me blessed are those who believe without seeing Jesus had spent 40 days with the disciples and appeared to many people he led the disciples to a place called Bethany Jesus blessed the disciples and told them to go out and tell the whole world about him and the good news of forgiveness and Make Disciples of them then he said be sure of this I am with you always even to the End of the Age then Jesus was taken into heaven to sit at the right hand of God not long after that the Holy Spirit did come to the disciples to be their helper the disciples knew that God would truly be with them always and the Holy Spirit is still with us today for Jesus promised that he would be with us to the end of the age and he is
