We have something to tell our children and our
grandchildren. It is the story of Jesus Christ, the Moses of our salvation,
who brought us out of the Egypt of our sin. It is a true story based on the facts
of history: his virgin birth, his virtuous life, his vicarious atonement, and
his victorious resurrection.
What a story! It explains everything a child really needs to know. It explains
who we are: the people of God.
where we came from: a life of sin and misery.
where we are going: to live with Christ in mansions of glory.
who God is: the Father of mercy and love.
And it explains why we are here: to glorify God by living for Christ.
