hello children today we shall start with the new series of Bible
stories really what are these stories about this series of Bible stories is
about the twelve disciples of Jesus so there will be twelve stories and each
story tell us about the lives of the twelve disciples of Jesus
Ooh sounds interesting but I have one
question what is the meaning of the word disciples I don't understand a disciple
is someone who accepts to follow another person as a leader and helps him in
spreading his teachings and philosophy for example the twelve disciples
followed Jesus as their leader and helped him spread his teachings to the
people throughout the world gotcha
So now do we have the permission to start with the story gumbo
oh yes yes of course
go ahead holy you have my permission
ha ha ha
Thank You Gombo so our first story is about Andrew one of jesus' twelve
disciples Andrew was one of the brothers our peter and was born to a
man Jonah's he lived in a town called
Bethsaida in Capernaum and was a fisherman by profession before Jesus
called him to be his disciple and followers before becoming Jesus's
disciple Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist he had heard about Jesus
from John's teachings about the Son of God coming to save the people once
A ndrew became Jesus's disciple he went to places like Sevilla Greece and Asia
Minor to preach his teachings to the people Andrews main purpose in life
was to bring others to follow Jesus and that's what he did and hundreds and
hundreds of people soon became Jesus's followers according to traditional
stories Andrew died a martyr in a Kia Greece in a small town called patre.
Andrew died soon after the Athen governor a pious wife was healed and converted to
Christian faith and shortly after the governor's brother too became a
Christian this angered appears and he arrested Andrew immediately condemning
him to die on the cross Andrew was supposed to be crucified on
the same shaped cross as Jesus this made Andrew feel unworthy of him dying on
the same shaped cross as his master he begged appears to make his cross
different Apheas agreed and made an x-shaped cross For Andrew on which he was
crucified this cross is still called st. Andrew's cross which is known as one of
his apostolic symbols later a symbol of two crossed fish was also applied to
andrew because before becoming Jesus's disciple he was a fisherman so that was
the story of Andrew That was some really nice story holy I am glad you
children liked it all right holy will be back soon for another story
