The Search for Truth

In my last training course, a colleague presented this story set to international students. Thank you very much for that.
Different people search for the truth. They encounter Jesus and react differently.
The first friends of Jesus John 1:35-51 Focus: People search for the truth. After a trial period, they are convinced that Jesus is the promised Savior and enter into a personal relationship with him.
Jesus and Nicodemus John 3:1-11+16; 19:39 Focus: Nicodemus takes his time to search for the truth and only follows Jesus after much deliberation. However, when Jesus dies, he confesses him publicly at a time when many were afraid.
Jesus heals a man born blind John 9 Focus: Someone experiences Jesus and gets a personal relationship with Jesus, experiences the cost of following Jesus
The rich man Mark 10:17-31 Focus: Serious search for the truth, but not willing to pay the price, open end
Jesus and the tax collector Luke 19:1-10 Focus: Someone is simply curious and becomes a follower of Jesus and has a personal relationship with Jesus
The woman at the well John 4:5-19:25-30:42 Focus: Unexpectedly, she meets Jesus and recognizes that Jesus is the promised Saviour. She shares this good news with her whole village.

In future blog posts, I will also present a story set from time to time. You can find all the material with formulated stories in my handbook "Stories and Oral Bibles" under https://www.fivefingerfood.org/en_us/download/. As my handbook continues to grow, I can only give the current page, page 197, but this will change. Otherwise, check the table of contents under "The search for truth". https://www.freebibleimages.org, a free super resource for Bible photos or drawings.
