Old Testament and 27 books in the New Testament. Would you want toknow how you can easily remember this? (Let the kids respond).

It’s simple. How many letters are there in the word OLD (3 – let thechildren response)? How about the word TESTAMENT – (9 – Let thechildren response)? Now let’s combine put 3 and 9 together, what numberdo we have? 39, so there are 39 books in the Old Testament.

How about the New Testament? This is how we would do it. If you multiply3 and 9 what will be the product? 27 so there are books in the New

 Testament

BIBLE STORY Materials needed: Posters containing the memory verse which can be

made by the kids before the class starts. Headbands made of paper withone verse each. Bible basis of the story is in Deut. 31:11-12; 32:46. In thestory assign kids who will be your actors.

Here it goes. The children in the Bible times really know the Word of Godor the Bible. As early as 7-years old they have memorized the Torah orthe Law. They were able to learn it because in their homes, their fatherand their mother tell them stories about the Bible, they recite it every dayand every evening. They would even go to school just to learn the Bible. They also have small Bible that they put in their head, they also write it intheir doors, so that they will not forget but remember it. The childrenthere play but most of the time they help their parents with the chores,

they tend sheep, build boats and homes, while they are helping they areagain learning about the word of God.

Incredible FactsIs all of the Bible True?

Absolutely! The Bible is the very Word of God, and God can’t lie. He can’tmake mistakes either. You and I might be tempted to lie sometimes, butGod never is. You and I might make mistakes sometimes, but God neverdoes. God is perfect, which means he never does anything wrong. He hasgiven us His Word because He wants us to know the truth especiallyabout some very important stuff-like who he is, how mush he loves us andhow to get to heaven.

rely on every good word because after all, it’s God’s Word.
