We know that according to the Jewish law, we will receive retribution and punishment. The law condemns us to death because no matter how hard we try, we will not be able to exactly and perfectly fulfil all the requirements and expectations of the law. The law says: Love your God with all your soul and with all your strength. But who is able to fully obey this law? Nobody. But if we are in Christ, there is no punishment or condemnation for us! To be in Christ Jesus means to believe in him and to consider him as your Lord and Saviour. It means to surrender the control of your life completely to him.

Dear listener - congratulations. You made an important and vital decision. Now, maybe your question is, how do I start my journey of faith with God? We have all sinned. All of us have committed actions that have displeased God. Because of sin in our lives, we deserve to be separated from God forever. Jesus Christ sacrificed his life on the cross to pay the price we deserve. Christ's resurrection from the dead proved that His death was sufficient to pay for our sins. This, in fact, is a summary of the message of salvation! If you believe in Jesus Christ as the only saviour, you are saved!

Others saw that Jesus did not travel with the disciples on the ark, and they were

amazed when they found him on the other side of the sea.

Jesus Christ used Peter, who was full of God's Spirit, to heal the weak-born man with the power of God's Spirit. As you heard, two things were necessary to heal that loose man. One is the power of Jesus Christ and the other is human faith. In Christianity, our faith in Jesus Christ causes us to do good deeds to other people, but the followers of other religions think that Christians also do good deeds to get salvation, while this opinion is not correct. We Christians first receive salvation for free and then we are able to do good deeds.

During the period of the New Testament, some Jews were scattered and lived in many different countries. Many of these Jews used to come to Jerusalem every year to celebrate the important holidays of their religion. One of these feasts was the Feast of Weeks, the day of Pentecost. So when the disciples of the resurrected Jesus began to speak in tongues, many of these Jewish pilgrims who had come from other lands heard the commotion and gathered to see what was going on. He was surprised to see that these common people from Galilee were praising God in their language. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, these disciples were speaking in languages ​​they had never learned before, but now they were speaking those languages ​​with utmost eloquence.

Jesus said, "If anyone is thirsty, come to me and drink." "The streams of living water will flow from the one who believes in me." What was his destination from the streams of living water?

Didn't Moses give you the law? Why don't you do it? You circumcise your sons on the Sabbath, why are you angry with me for giving a man health on the Sabbath? They wanted to arrest him, but no one reached out to him.

Considerable dispute among the crowds! Some said Jesus is a good man; others said he is misleading people. On festival, Jesus taught the people in the temple, and the people were amazed at his teaching.

People said he is the Messiah. But did others say that Christ would appear from Galilee? The guards, who had gone to capture Jesus, returned empty-handed. They said no one had spoken like this man.

Because Jesus' brothers did not believe in him, they told him to go to Judea and do his work in front of the people to become famous.

Jesus said, "My time has not yet come, but it is always right for you, and stay in Galilee."
