Kid's Korner

Hi Kids! Welcome to Kid's Korner weekly Bibe lessons. We hope you enjoy and learn more from God's Word as we study together.

Anytime you have a question, please let us know and we will do our best to give you an answer from God's Word.

Before we begin our first lesson, let's look at a few scriptures to get us started.

I cry out with my whole heart;
Hear me, O LORD!
I will keep Your statutes.

statutes - established rules

I cry out to You;
Save me, and I will keep Your testimonies.

testimonies - proofs

I rise before the dawning of the morning,
And cry for help;
I hope in Your word.

My eyes are awake through the night watches,
That I may meditate on Your word. (Psalm 119:145-148)

meditate - To dwell on any thing in thought.

Here we see that the psalmist says:

	He will keep God's rules
	He will keep God's proofs,
	He hopes in God's Word
	He thinks on God's word.

As we study God's Word, let us make it our goal and habit to do the same. As we learn God's rules, let's keep His rules.

As we see the proofs of God's existence let's keep these proofs in our minds.

As we learn God's word, let us hope in it and think often on it.

Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path. (Psalm 119:105)

God's word is the light, which shows us the path to Heaven. We must follow (obey) His Word if we want to go to Heaven.

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

This verse tells us that the Bible was given to us by God and His words are what we need to live the way He wants us to live.

So in order to know His Word we must study the Bible... Study to shew thyself (yourself) approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. (2 Timothy 2:15 {KJV})

Now let's begin studying God's word and think on the things we learn and obey what He says.

John 1:1-18

Our first Lesson comes from the book of John. When we go to the Bible we find that it is divided into two major parts, which are the Old Testament and the New Testament.

John is found in the New Testament. John was written by one of Jesus' Apostles. He was very close to Jesus and they loved each other very much. As we study God's Word we will find how much Jesus loves us too.

You will notice that the reading assignment is in red, this means that you should be able to click on the scripture reference in red and go to the book of John at Bible Gateway and read your assignment right from the computer. I will be doing this throughout our lessons.

If you prefer, please feel free to use your own Bible.

Your assignment is to read John 1::1-18.

Please answer the following questions:

(When possible, please tell me where you found your answer:

Ex: John 1:1)

1. Who was in the beginning with God?

2. Who was sent as a witness to tell that Jesus was coming?

3. But as many as ______ Him, to them He gave the right to become _______ of God, to those who _____ in His name: who were _____, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of ______.

4. Who is the Word that became flesh?

5. Name something in this lesson that we must do to become God's child?

We just read that Jesus, God's Son, was with God when He created the world. Did you know....

God was not alone when He created the Heavens and the Earth? God spoke of His son being with Him in Genesis 1:26:

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

He says Let Us, in Our... then in John 1 we see that Jesus was with the Father during the creation.

Extra Thought:

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.

And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. (John 1:1-5)

By reading these verses we are taught that the Word was God. As we read on down through this chapter we find in the following verses that Jesus is the Word.

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’”

And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him. (Verses 14-18)

So we learn that the Word which is Christ, God's Son, is God! This can be a little hard to comprehend so we must pray and continue to think on these things that are hard for us to understand. We continue searching His written Word for more information on these things.

Here are a few more passages that tell us more of Jesus being God...

Hebrews 1:1-10 look close at verse 8.

Philippians 2:5-6 says Christ is the form of of God and equal with God.

Isaiah 9:6-7 Christ is referred to as The Mighty God and The Everlasting Father.

So we know that Christ is the form of God and equal with God. Christ is deity, holy, we are to respect Him and consider Him as God.
