Source (Where I saw it): Original
Supplies: Napkins, something dirty to wipe.
Preparation: None.
The object lesson & how I used it...
Main Point: Jesus took our punishment!
Illustration: Come to the front and show the boys and girls the napkins. Ask if anyone has ever used one of these. Hopefully you have! Napkins help you stay clean right? Now I know some of you use your sleeve, or hand, or your siblings shirt, but we are supposed to use a napkin. The napkin can wipe away the dirt or food that is making us a mess and make us clean. The napkin takes all that mess and puts it on itself.
Explanation: Our saving relationship with Jesus is very much the same. Jesus took our dirt and mess which is sin and wiped us clean. The Bible tells us that Jesus took all the bad things we have done a wiped them away when He died on the cross and rose again. The great thing is that all we have to do is to ask Jesus to forgive us and we can have a relationship with God! Jesus helped make us clean so we could stand before God!
