COLT OF AN ASS

First you and your DAD need to read the story
of Balaam and his ass (not a dirty word in the Bible,
but the word for a donkey).  
Click on the picture of the donkey above.

Next, read Mark 11:1-10, and you will see that Jesus was once
carried into Jerusalem on the colt of an ass, or a donkey.  
This page is to help you learn about other Christian kids
who have helped Jesus do a mighty work and
carried the burdens of other Christians.  

MESSAGE TO CHRISTIANS, ESPECIALLY SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS:  
If you know a story of a kid who has been a real good example of a
Christian and served Jesus in a special way,

Please send the story to us by E-Mail.

Who do we want on this page?  
Answer:  Kids who are pert and polite for Jesus.  
What does that mean?

PERT-  
This means that a kid can answer a person
older or younger than himself when asked a question,
and it means the answer will make sense and show
he has learned something about the world around him and the Word of God.

POLITE-
This means that when the kid answers those
who are older or younger than himself, he does not
offend them by his manners and words.  
If they don't like what he said, it is because they are rebels
against Jesus Christ, and they hate words
about the Jesus and the Bible from anyone.

Example:  Read the following account of Jesus at the age of twelve,
and notice the PERT and POLITE principles with his parents
and the doctors of theology in the synagogue.

Luke 2:40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.  
41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover.  
42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast.  
43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it.  
44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance.  
45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him.
46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.  
47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.  
48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.  
49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?  
50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.  
51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.  
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.

On the page below we do not want either smart mouthed brats,
nor do we want goodie two shoes who are conceited snobs.  
So, if you send along a story about some kid whom you think
should be on this page, send his parents' name and phone number,
and his pastor's name and phone number.   

Nothing here until we hear from YOU!!!
