Today's story is called the transfiguration the what the transfiguration
you will know the meaning of the word once i am done telling you the story great
then let's not waste any more time go on with the story holy
as days passed jesus knew that his ministry on earth was winding down and his life on earth
was coming to a close however his disciples did not understand that though
one day jesus took peter james and john on top of a high mountain no one else was there with them
just the four of them suddenly james peter and john saw jesus's appearance change completely
they were amazed his face shunned as bright as the sun they could hardly look at his face with
all the brightness his clothes changed too all of a sudden jesus was wearing robes which were
sparkling and brilliant white peter john and james had never seen anything like this before
after a while suddenly james john and peter saw two more men with jesus
the disciples recognized them as moses and elijah the two old prophets were talking to jesus
about how he was going to finish god's plan by dying in jerusalem peter overwhelmed with glory
he raced up to jesus and said this is wonderful it's amazing if you tell me i will build three
shrines right here to honor this experience one for you one for moses and one for elijah
as peter was speaking a cloud came from heaven and settled over them
peter james and john were terrified they could not see anything through the cloud they
suddenly heard a voice coming from heaven this is my beloved son and i am very happy with him
listen closely to him the disciples fell to the ground and covered their eyes
when the cloud gradually lifted peter james and john saw that moses and elijah were gone too
jesus came over to them and asked them to get up don't be afraid he said
don't tell anyone what you have seen here until i have risen from the dead the disciples did
not understand what jesus was trying to say but they all had one question in their minds
peter asked why do the religious leaders insist that elijah has to return before the messiah comes
jesus answered his question he said elijah is coming first to set everything straight
but the truth is that he already came but everyone failed to recognize him they mistreated him and
soon they will mistreat the son of god too so now do you understand the meaning of transfiguration
it means complete change in appearance and into a more spiritual state yes
the holy tales it is about how peter and john heal a man who was never able to walk in his whole life
wow that sounds awesome all right then let's start with the story i'm sure you're going to love it
after jesus went back to his home to heaven his disciples peter and john went to the
temple each day to participate in the afternoon prayers one day as they were entering the temple
they saw a man being carried in he was a lame man and never walked in his whole life every
day he was carried into the temple and put down by the gate so he could beg for money from the
people who went into the temple the man saw peter and john and called out to them for some money
peter and john stopped and looked at the man look at us peter said the man looked at them
gladly expecting them to give him some money peter said i don't have any money to give you
but i shall give you what i have in the name of jesus christ get up and walk
peter took the man's hand and helped him to get up immediately the man's feet and legs
straightened out and became strong he stood up for the first time in his life and began to walk
the people standing there were amazed the man walked around praising god
everyone who knew that the man had never walked before in his life were in awe of
the wonderful things that were happening to him that was a wonderful story holy loved it
i'm glad you did so now time for the question why was the lame man carried into the temple every day
so that he could beg money from the people who came to the temple yes that's correct yay
the holy tales today's story is about saul escaping from the jewish leaders after his
encounter with jesus that sounds adventurous go on with the story holy let's not waste any more time
saul's sudden encounter with jesus on his way to damascus had changed saul completely
he stayed with some believers for a few days and immediately began preaching that jesus
was truly god's son everyone who heard him were amazed they knew a few days earlier
it was saul who wanted to persecute the believers but now he was one of them
the more saul preached the more powerful his preaching became
none of the jews in damascus were able to find any fault in him and this made them very unhappy
some of the jewish leaders decided to kill him they were constantly looking out for a chance
to ambush him saul heard about their plans and some of his new friends helped him escape
at night they made saul climb into a big basket tied ropes to it and lowered him down
over the city wall after he escaped saul went to jerusalem and tried to meet the believers there
but they were all afraid of him because they didn't know how he had changed they thought he
was pretending to be a believer just to trick them barnabas came with him to talk to the believers
he told them all about how saul met the lord on his way to damascus and how he preached
powerfully afterwards so the believers accepted saul and from then he preached in jerusalem
his preaching was very powerful and this angered the jewish leaders
wherever he went the young church grew stronger in number and in strength because the believers
walked with the lord and were always filled with the power of the holy spirit
so did you children like the story yes yes we did it was wonderful
