John 16:11

Little Bible — for children and parents · Growth Figures · © Growth Figures. All rights reserved.

Satan, the ruler of this world, stands judged through Jesus’ victory. Satan is created and limited, never God’s equal; avoid frightening imagery.

Memory phrase: Evil stands judged

Talk about it: Why is evil never equal to God?

Prayer: Jesus, help me receive this teaching with truth, wisdom, and safety.
