****Sparks
Highlights**** After Jesus resurrected from death, He
appeared to multitudes of people to prove His resurrection. Everything He ever said was true – including
His resurrection from the dead. His time on earth was then done and it was
time for him to ascend back to Heaven to sit at the right hand of God the
Father. Before ascending back to Heaven,
Jesus instructed His followers to teach all the world His gospel. After we are born again, as we discussed
last week, our responsibility is to spread the gospel as Jesus commanded. We are to spread the gospel to all those in
the world – and we start right here in our own neighborhoods. So how do we do that? We tell others about everything we have
learned about thus far in Sparks - how Jesus came to the earth, a perfect
sacrifice for the penalty of our sin, how He rose again, and thus is our Savior
as he saves us from the sure punishment of our sins. This
enables others to believe and understand that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and
the Life, and thus believe on Him and have eternal life. John 3:16 our Sparkie key verse is an easy
verse to share that wraps up the gospel in just a few words – these are God’s words
to us. God’s Word is the Bible and that
is where we should point others to reading the gospel and hearing it from
us. We made bracelets tonight to help
us remember how to share God’s Word.
Next week will will talk more about how God’s World gets shared around
the world.
We have one more night of Sparks
next week, then Wednesday 5/4/16 is the AWANA Banquet where each club
participant will be recognized. This is
for parents, grandparents and whoever else might want to come! A yummy meal will be provided for you. You can check out the AWANA program at
