The Rich Man

Once, a rich man came to Jesus and asked him how he could get to heaven, Jesus said he just had to obey all the commandments and give all his riches to the poor. The rich guy got really sad because he had just gotten Lego Star Wars 2®. Jesus then turned to his disciples and said that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to go to heaven. His disciples were astonished and asked how anyone can be saved, Jesus just said “Anything is possible with God.”

Men did sport too, they had a race called the torch race, what you did was, you all got a lighted torch, and you ran around the track and tried to get to the end without having it go out.

The Death of John the Baptist

Herod’s wife Herodias, hated John, she really wanted to kill him or something. However, Herod didn’t hate him, he actually liked to listen to him, and because of this, John was always under his protection. On Herod’s birthday, Herod’s daughter, also called Herodias, performed a dance that Herod really liked, so he said to her she could have anything she wanted, up to half his kingdom. She asked her mum, Herodias, what she should ask for. She said to ask for John the Baptist’s head. So she went and asked him, Herod didn’t want to do it, but he had said so, so he told an executioner to chop Johns head off and bring it to him.

Feral Camels

Lots of camels are in the outback and their eating and drinking all the plant and water in the water holes. So they are becoming a big problem, the scientists say that their number(one million) could double in a year. The camels used to be used for carting stuff around the out back, but not anymore because theres more trucks and 4wds. Some people say we should eat the camel, it tastes pretty good(so I hear) a lot like beef (so I hear). It is available at some places but not enough to make a difference. I reckon I would like it, as long as it wasn’t too fatty or grisly.                                         (*Who wants a camel burger then?* Ehem er…. not me)

The Temptation of Jesus

Jesus was led out to the wilderness by the Holy Spirit because the devil was going to tempt him, he ate nothing for forty days and forty nights and on the forty first day the devil came and to him “If you’re really the son of God then turn this rock into bread” Jesus said no, because people don’t only need bread to live. Then the devil took Jesus to the top of the temple and told him to jump off because he obviously wouldn’t die. From then on Jesus told people to turn from their sins to God for the kingdom of heaven is near.

The Messenian War

Teaching about Love for Enemies

The law of Moses says that you should love your friends and hate your enemies, but God loves all people, the good and the bad. If you only like people who like you, what good is that?

HOORAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(TEE HEEHEEHEE  (<->))
