[Bible Trek Luke] Luke 4 Kingdom Challenges

DAY 4 OF 7

Jesus Dies on the Cross

Jesus died so that we can live forever with God.

Read the Bible

A group of important men who don't recognize that Jesus was sent by God and think he is just a troublemaker have Jesus arrested. He is taken to two different governmental rulers—Governor Pilate, and King Herod. Neither of them thinks Jesus is a criminal, but the crowd convinces them that Jesus should be killed. Jesus is cruelly nailed to a cross (a common way to execute criminals at that time), and his family and friends watch him die.

Think about it

Why did Jesus have to die? Because Jesus came to show the world how much God loves us! His death was an important part of God’s plan to save us from sin and give us a way to have a relationship with God. It was very hard for Jesus to go through that experience, but think about it: Jesus died so that we can live forever with God. He loves us that much!

About this Plan

[Bible Trek Luke] Luke 4 Kingdom Challenges

Welcome to the fourth devotional of this exciting trek through Luke! For the next seven days, we’ll walk alongside a follower of Jesus, Luke. Jesus taught that God’s kingdom is both in us and in the work God does through us. Every time we talk to God, worship God, tell others about God, and serve people around us to show God’s love, we are making the kingdom of God grow!
