This image is a Bible study worksheet titled "He Is Risen" designed for children, focusing on the resurrection of Jesus Christ as described in Matthew 28:1–20. The goal is to help kids understand and reflect on the central Christian belief that Jesus has risen from the dead and is alive.
Below is a complete solution to the Bible Reading Questions and Discussion & Reflections, based on the scripture passage (Matthew 28:1–20), along with explanations suitable for children:
---
1. What were the names of the women who came to the tomb? (verse 1)
Answer: Mary Magdalene and the other Mary.
Explanation: These two women went to the tomb early in the morning to anoint Jesus’ body with spices. They were devoted followers of Jesus.
---
2. Who descended from heaven and what did he do and say? (verses 2–7)
Answer: An angel of the Lord descended from heaven. He rolled back the stone from the tomb’s entrance and sat on it. Then he said, “Do not be afraid. I know that you are looking for Jesus who was crucified. He is not here; He has risen, just as He said.”
Explanation: The angel showed that Jesus was no longer in the tomb because He had risen from the dead—just as He had predicted!
---
3. What did the women do after the angel spoke? (verse 8)
Answer: The women were afraid but also very joyful. They ran quickly to tell the disciples.
Explanation: Even though they were scared, they were excited to share the amazing news: Jesus is alive!
---
4. Who did the women meet as they went to tell the disciples and what did He say? (verses 9–10)
Answer: They met Jesus Himself! He greeted them and said, “Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee. There they will see me.”
Explanation: Jesus appeared to them personally! This proves He really rose from the dead and is alive.
---
5. What did the guard report to the chief priests? And how was it handled? (verse 11–15)
Answer: The guards told the chief priests what happened. The priests paid the soldiers to lie and say that Jesus' disciples stole His body while the guards were asleep.
Explanation: The religious leaders tried to cover up the truth, but God made sure the real story—Jesus rising—would be known.
---
6. What did some of the disciples do and how did they respond? (verses 16–17)
Answer: The disciples went to Galilee where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw Him, some worshiped Him, but others doubted.
Explanation: Some believed immediately, but others needed more time to trust that Jesus was truly alive.
---
7. What did Jesus say and tell His disciples to do? (verses 18–20)
Answer: Jesus said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them… and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Explanation: Jesus gave His followers a mission—to share the good news of His love and salvation with everyone, and to teach others about Him. He promised to be with them always.
---
1. Think about the sight that Mary and Mary saw. Imagine and share what that would have been like to see an angel roll the stone from the door and speak to you about Jesus whom you thought was in there.
Answer (for kids): It would have been so surprising and exciting! Seeing an angel and hearing that Jesus wasn’t dead anymore would feel like a dream come true. It would remind us that God can do anything—even bring someone back to life!
---
2. Why is it possible that some disciples didn’t believe that it was Jesus when they saw Him alive? Discuss.
Answer: Because Jesus had died, they expected He would stay dead. They were still sad and confused. Sometimes, even when we see something amazing, we don’t believe it right away—especially if it goes against what we think should happen.
---
3. What does it mean to you to know that Jesus is alive?
Answer: It means that Jesus conquered death! He loves us so much that He died for our sins and rose again. Because He lives, we can have hope, peace, and eternal life with God.
---
4. How do you feel when you’re expecting things to be one way and they turn out another way? (i.e., Mary and Mary discovering an angel). Discuss.
Answer: We might feel surprised, confused, or even happy! Just like Mary and Mary, sometimes God surprises us with blessings we never expected. That’s part of trusting God—He often does things in ways we don’t expect.
---
5. Have you had an experience where God did more than you thought and you were pleasantly surprised? Discuss.
Answer (example): Maybe you prayed for something and didn’t get what you wanted, but God gave you something better. Or maybe you felt lonely and someone reached out to you. That’s God showing His love and care in unexpected ways.
---
6. How will you live your life now knowing that Jesus died for you and is alive because God loves you? Discuss.
Answer: I can try to love others like Jesus loved me. I can forgive people, be kind, and share the good news that Jesus is alive. Knowing He lives gives me courage and joy every day.
---
7. How will you share this truth with others that Jesus is alive?
Answer: I can talk about it with friends, tell stories from the Bible, or show kindness to others. I can also pray for people and invite them to church. Sharing the good news helps others find hope too.
