The Ministry of Jesus Christpage 6

Jesus taught, saying, “I am the light of the world: whoever follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”

Most of the religious leaders looked for a way to destroy Jesus, but could not find one, because all the people were anxious to hear Him when He spoke.

Jesus continued teaching in the Temple, saying, “I am the light of the world: whoever follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”

And He said to those who believed on Him, “If you continue living as I tell you, then you are indeed My disciples. You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. If the Son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed. I am the door; if any man comes to God through Me, he shall be saved. I am the Good Shepherd: the Good Shepherd gives his life for the sheep. My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give unto them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall any man snatch them out of My hand.”

After three years of teaching, Jesus instructed His disciples to bring Him a certain young donkey, one that had never been ridden, and He sat on it. Then as He rode toward Jerusalem, a huge crowd began to rejoice and loudly praise God for all the mighty works which they had seen.

They called out, “Hosanna! Blessed be the King that comes in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.”

But when Jesus neared the city, he looked at it and cried over it because the people still did not recognize him as the promised Savior.

Satan entered into Judas, one of Jesus’ twelve disciples, and Judas betrayed Jesus.

Then Satan entered into Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus’ 12 disciples, and Judas conspired with the chief priests and captains about how he might betray Jesus. They were glad, and agreed to give him 30 pieces of silver to inform them of a time and a place they could capture Jesus when there were no crowds around Him.
