Do you remember what Grandad and Nanna wrote to you in Chapter 1?

Remember how we learned that Lucifer came to be filled with pride about himself, and he became the enemy of God, so his name was changed to Satan? (Isaiah 14:13-14 [13] For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
[14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

See All...)

Well, not only did he get the name Satan, but he was also called by God, the Dragon, and the Devil. (Revelation 12:9And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
See All...)

Satan’s fellow bad angels were called demons because they were against God.

God our Father and God His son Jesus Christ are a family and they love you and want you to grow up in their family as well. They are the God Family. (Ephesians 3:14-15 [14] For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
[15] Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

See All...)

That is why Grandad and Nanna are writing to you the story of the Bible, which is God’s story of how we can be in God’s family, forever.

God our Father and Jesus His Son, were together from eternity and were there together, when they began to make everything. (John 1:1-3 [1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
[2] The same was in the beginning with God.
[3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

See All..., John 1:12-14 [12] But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
[13] Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
[14] And the Word was made 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.

See All...)  Then you came along in God’s good time for you to be alive.

Even as a child, many Christians have recited the 3rd Commandment of God’s 10 Commandments, off by heart. But, are you sure you really know the 3rd Commandment?

What is the meaning of Luke 16:16The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
See All...?

Some people who believe that we don’t need to keep God’s law, or God's Sabbath or Holy Days today, cite Luke 16:16The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
See All...:  "The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it."

Is Jesus saying in this verse that God’s law was required to be kept and the prophets respected until John the Baptist, but now the law has perished or failed, and is no longer necessary to keep?

In a world of so many divergent religions and philosophies …do you find yourself asking (as I did when I was a young boy) …“is there a true God?”

For years that question plagued me. In fact it was a question that I used, to plague some of my school teachers and religious instruction teachers.

They frustrated me with answers …such as “Oh well, the answer to that question is just a matter of faith.”

How has this question rested with you? Have you found a satisfactory answer to it, yet?
