The Story of Easter Jesus’s sacrifice

The Jesus who is the Son of God and the savior of the world while Jesus was on earth he taught everyone about God’s love and healed people from their sickness.

He did many miracles by calming storms and even raised people from the dead.

But the Jewish leaders and teachers did not like what Jesus was doing or how he claimed to be the Son of God and so they made a plan to arrest him to get rid of him once and for all.

Judas one of Jesus’s disciples agreed to betray Jesus and give him over to the religious leaders for some money.  Jesus was in a garden praying and Judas showed the man who Jesus was.

Jesus was arrested and taken to the rulers of the land so that they could decide what to do with him.

Jesus was presented before the High Council and they asked him if he was the Messiah the savior of the Jews they asked him, if he was claiming to be the Son of God – you say that I am.  The council was furious and they shouted that Jesus was guilty and he deserves to die.

So they took Jesus before the Roman ruler Pontius Pilate and he heard the case against Jesus.

Pilate didn’t think that Jesus had done anything wrong they found him to be innocent, so Pilate said that he would punish Jesus and then release him but the crowd kept screaming louder and louder – crucify him we want him dead and because of the pressure of the crowd, Pilate turned Jesus over to the Roman soldiers to be crucified.
