KIDS' EE GOSPEL PRESENTATION



TALKING
- Do you go to church anywhere? Tell me about it.

TESTIMONY
- Church is import!ant to me because that's where I learned how I can go to heaven.

TWO QUESTIONS
- May I ask you a question?
If you died tonight, do you know for sure you would go to heaven?
Let me ask you another question.
If God asked you, "Why should I let you into my heaven?"
what would you say?

TRANSITION
- I have really good news for you!
Would it be OK if I shared with you how I know for sure I'm going to heaven and
how you can know this too?

HEAVEN
- Heaven is a free gift. It is not something you work for or deserve.
- The Bible says, "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal
life"(Romans 6:23).
- The Bible also says, "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and
this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can
boast"(Ephesians 2:8-9).
- What keeps us from getting this gift?

MAN
- Man is a sinner and cannot save himself. Sin is lying, stealing, cheating,
disobeying, or anything that we think, say, do, or don't do that displeases God.
- The Bible says, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"(Rom3:23).
- Man cannot save himself because he can't be perfect.
- The Bible also says, "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect"
(Mat 5:48).
- (Rotten Egg Illustration).
- Why does God want perfection?


GOD
- God is holy, loving and just.
- The Bible says about God, "Your eyes are too pure to look on evil.You cannot
tolerate wrong"(Habakkuk 1:13).
- It also says, "God is love,"(1John4:8b) and "Yet He does not leave the guilty
unpunished"(Exodus 34:7).
- On the one hand, God loves us and doesn't want to punish us; on the other hand
He is just and must punish sin.
- Do you see the problem? God solved this problem by sending His Son Jesus.

CHRIST
- Jesus is God. He came from heaven to earth, lived a perfect life, died on the cross to
pay for our sins, was buried and rose from the dead on the third day and is in heaven
now offering us the free gift of eternal life.
- The Bible says, "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that
whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life"(John 3:16).
- The Bible also says, "... and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity(sin) of us all"
(Isaiah 53:6).
- (Garcia Illustration).
- How do we get this gift of eternal life?

FAITH
- By faith. Faith is not just knowing about God in your head. Faith is not just
temporary. Faith is trusting in Jesus Christ alone with your whole heart.
- The Bible says, "Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved"(Acts 16:31).
- The Bible also says, "If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe
in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved"(Romans 10:9).
- (Life Boat Illustration).
- Does this make sense to you?

COMMITMENT
- Would you like to pray now to ask Jesus to forgive your sin and to give you the
gift of eternal life?
- This means that you want to trust in Jesus, turn from your sins, and follow Him.
- Jesus says in the Bible, "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears
my voice and opens the door, I will come in..."(Revelation 3:20).
- If this is what you want, then we can pray together. I can pray and you can repeat
after me: "Dear Jesus, forgive my sins and come into my heart as my Lord and
Savior, Amen."
- The Bible says, "I tell you the truth, he who believes has everlasting life"(John 6:47).
- Now, let me ask you a question.
If you died tonight, do you know for sure you would go to heaven? If God asked you,
"Why should I let you into my heaven?" what would you say now?
- The Bible says, "Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name,
He gave the right to become children of God"(John 1:12).
- Welcome to the family of God!
