WHEN YOUR CHILDREN ASK, "WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS
DAY?" A.
Under the Law they surely asked this about the Sabbath (Ex.
20:8-11; Deut. 5:12-15). B.
Now a new day has dawned. Why is the first day of the week
different? Luke

23: 11, Christ is the first fruits of the dead, I
Cor. 15:20) vv. 15-16,
the Feast of weeks or Pentecost, Church established on first day
of the week. Acts
20:7; I Cor. 16:1,2. II.
WHEN YOUR CHILDREN ASK, "WHY ARE YOU EATING THOSE
CRACKERS AND DRINKING JUICE?" B.
I
Cor. 11: 23-26. Teach them the significance of this symbolic
meal. III.
WHEN YOUR CHILDREN ASK, "WHY IS THAT PERSON GETTING
DUNKED?" A.
Matt.
3: 5-7, 13-15. He is following the Lord in obedience. B.
He is entering into a relationship with Christ (Gal.
3:26,27). C.
He is being saved from his sins (I
Peter 3:21). D.
He is being buried and raised with Christ (Rom.
6:3,4). IV.
WHEN YOUR CHILDREN ASK, "WHY ARE YOU PAYING THAT
MONEY?" A. Teach your children that God does not need our money, but He allows us to invest in heavenly things (Matt. 6:19-21), and to be workers together in His kingdom. Glory
to God in the church by Christ Jesus
