This
mommy Easter egg is on her way to church with her child so she can
teach Sunday school. She is going to be teaching her child and others
what Easter is about. The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Mark
9:31 For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man
is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after
that he is killed, he shall rise the third day.
KJV Bible Scriptures on Jesus Crucifixion
You
should read John ch.19-ch.20 out loud to the children so they will know
what happened to Jesus when he was crucified. You could pick a
different scripture if that is not the one your looking for. Once your
finish reading this to them, then sum it up in your own words on what
happened so they will understand. On the coloring page just write the
scripture you used on the coloring page. The same with the card craft,
just use the scripture you used and have the child write it in the card.
Tell how Jesus was brought before Pilate and
Pilate had the soldiers beat Jesus. The soldiers put a crown of thorns
on his head and put a purple robe on him and spit on him and hit him and
mocked him. They were very cruel to Jesus. After Jesus had been beaten
Pilate brings him forth to show the people and told them he found no
fault in him. The people didn't want to hear that. The chief priests and
officers saw him and they cried out- CRUCIFY HIM! CRUCIFY HIM! They
hated Jesus! Pilate said, You take him and kill him because I do not
find any wrong doing in this man!
So to sum it
all up Jesus carried his own cross up to the hill of Golgotha which
means the place of a skull. And there he was nailed on a cross along
with two other men. The mens legs were broken but Jesus legs was not.
Jesus was speared in the side. Jesus was taken and layed in a new tomb
and on the third day he rose again.
Let the
children know that Jesus did all this so we could go free from our sins.
It would be a great opportunity to present the message of salvation to
them after this and let them know that Jesus can wash them clean from
all their sins and save their soul. (a salvation message is good
anytime, not just in this one lesson! Anytime you have a new child come
to class you should always let them know.)
John 19:1 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.
John 19:2 And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,
John 19:3 And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.
John
19:4 Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I
bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.
John 19:5 Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!
John
19:6 When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried
out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye
him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.
John 19:7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
John 19:8 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;
John 19:9 And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.
John
19:10 Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest
thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release
thee?
John 19:11 Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at
all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that
delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.
John 19:12 And from
thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out,
saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever
maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.
John 19:13 When
Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down
in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the
Hebrew, Gabbatha.
John 19:14 And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!
John
19:15 But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him.
Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests
answered, We have no king but Caesar.
John 19:16 Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.
John
19:17 And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the
place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:
John 19:18 Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.
John 19:19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
John
19:20 This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus
was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and
Greek, and Latin.
John 19:21 Then said the chief priests of the
Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am
King of the Jews.
John 19:22 Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.
John
19:23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his
garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his
coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
John
19:24 They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but
cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be
fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my
vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.
John
19:25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his
mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.
John
19:26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing
by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
John 19:27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.
John
19:28 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished,
that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.
John
19:29 Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a
spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth.
John
19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is
finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
John
19:31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the
bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that
sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be
broken, and that they might be taken away.
John 19:32 Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.
John 19:33 But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:
John 19:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.
John 19:35 And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.
John 19:36 For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
John 19:37 And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.
John
19:38 And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus,
but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take
away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore,
and took the body of Jesus.
John 19:39 And there came also
Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a
mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.
John
19:40 Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes
with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.
John
19:41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and
in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.
John 19:42 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.
John
20:1 KJV The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when
it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from
the sepulchre.
John 20:2 KJV Then she runneth, and cometh to
Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto
them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know
not where they have laid him.
John 20:3 KJV Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre.
John 20:4 KJV So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.
John 20:5 KJV And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.
John 20:6 KJV Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,
John
20:7 KJV And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the
linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.
John 20:8 KJV Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.
John 20:9 KJV For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.

wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre,

the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.
John
20:13 KJV And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith
unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where
they have laid him.
John 20:14 KJV And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.
John
20:15 KJV Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest
thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if
thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will
take him away.
John 20:16 KJV Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.
John
20:17 KJV Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet
ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I
ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
John
20:18 KJV Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen
the Lord, and that he had spoken these things unto her.
John
20:19 KJV Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the
week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for
fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto
them, Peace be unto you.

he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples
glad, when they saw the Lord.

the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the
print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and
thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.
John 20:26 KJV

them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and
said, Peace be unto you.

Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither
thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but
believing.
John 20:28 KJV And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.
John
20:29 KJV Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me,
thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have
believed.

through his name.
