Step 8: Messiah (Level 1 | 8)

Bible Literacy Foundation Season 2 Episode 9

In Step 8: Messiah, we explore the long-awaited arrival of Jesus, born in humility and destined to bring salvation to humanity. We learn about his ministry, teachings, and miracles, before his eventual rejection by the religious leadership. We discuss the significance of Jesus' death on the cross as a substitutionary sacrifice for the sins of humanity, and how it opened the way for righteousness and eternal life.

Suggested Readings:

  • Matthew 4:18-24
  • John 3:1-21
