Merry Christmas, Uncle! God save you!

Bah, humbug!

A small Christmas donation

to help the poor, Mr. Scrooge?

Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?

If they would rather die, they had better do it

and decrease the surplus population.

How sad to die with no friends or family around you

or to know that nobody loves you

because you loved nobody in your life.

Money can't buy a happy life.

Or a peaceful death.

No, spirit! No! No! Spirit! Hear me!

I am not the person I was!

I will not be the man I must have been before this!

Oh, spirit! I can change! I can become a better person...

Spirit! Assure me that I yet may change

these shadows you have shown to...

Willa! How did you...

Yes, well, oh, everyone's a critic!

Ladies and gentlemen, if you'll excuse me for just a moment.

I have her.

Why is the cat here and how did it get on stage?!

You know Willa

is Walter's most trusted knight of the round table.

What? Walter? W-W-Where is he?

Never! I am King Arthur!

Boys! Boys! You come down from there this very instant!

Wooah!

Oh dear!

Oof

Wooah!

Behold! The mighty Excalibur!

Catherine! I am in the middle of this show!

This is a disaster!

And now! I'll smite the dragon with it!

Have at you! Ha!

Oh!

What do you think you're doing?

Charles, dear, please.

Now is not the time

-for vexation. -That boy...

You know how obsessed he's been

with all things King Arthur lately.

Shh, dear, dear. I know, dear.

And I'm sure he didn't mean to smite you quite so hard.

-Ah... -Give me the sword!

Never!

Oh... Heavens!

Sorry, Daddy.

So sorry, Papa!

Mary, Charley, Walter!

This is not a playground.

This is where Daddy wor... Where's the cat?

Sir Willa is my faithful knight of the Round Table.

It is a cat. It is not a knight of any kind

of any table of any shape or size.

And as King Arthur's faithful knight,

Sir Willa follows the one true king wherever I go!

And you are most certainly not King Arthur!

Hm!

That is it!

Ah! My manuscript!

Huh?

Ahh.

Quickly, children! Quickly!

It's snowing!

We'll fix this, Father!

Move.

Move!

I said move!

-What Willa. -No!

Gotcha!

Walter!

Huzzah!

Ladies and gentlemen,

allow me to introduce my adorable youngest son...

I am King Arthur!

And this is Sir Willa,

my faithful Knight of the Round Table.

Ha, ha, yes!

My adorable and imaginative son, Walter!

And his cat... His knight

Sir Willa, who have popped by the theater

just because they want to say...

This is Excalibur! My magical sword!

And did I mention spirited?

It can only be wielded by the one true king!

Yup, yes, yes. Thank you so much,

but alas, all good things must come to an end.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, such a pity.

So, Your Highness, if would be so good

as to bid your royal subjects goodnight.

Say goodnight, Walter. Walter!

Walter...

The king wishes to bid you all goodnight.

So goodnight to you all!

Good night to you!

And to you. And to you.

-And you, and you! -Alright. Your Highness,

-And you, and you, and you! -yes, yes!

-And you, and you! -Time to go! Of course,

-And you, and you, and you! -you wouldn't want to wear out

-Camelot lives! -your royal welcome.

Thank you!

Ah, ah, ah!

I think you've had quite enough of this sword for one night.

What? Why?

Because behavior has consequences.

I...

We will discuss this when I get home.

But, wait, I can't have my sword till you get home?!

When I get home, we will discuss

if you'll ever even see this sword again!

But, please, why can't I have it?!

I said no! And that's final!

What... Where are you going?

Home. Because behavior has consequences.

Walter, I... Walter, I didn't mean... Wal...

Hmmm.

Charles! The sword.

Um, I'd like to just, uh,

so sorry, ladies and gentlemen!

Now, uh, where were we? Yes, yes, yes. Scrooge

Scrooge telling the spirit,

"Spirit, I can become a better person!

I will honor Christmas in my heart

and try to keep it all the year!

I will live in the past, the present and the future!

The spirits, all three, shall strive within me! I will not...

Hmm.

Dear.

Ah, the children. Are they in bed?

Charley and Mary are.

Walter is in the study.

What?! The study?!

Shh! Sh!

My study! Why?

I told him you were going to tell him a great story.

What? Catherine, what were you think...

He's so excited!

What... Excited? I didn't even know what... I,

Shh! Sh, sh, sh, sh!

Wh... What story are you...

I saw a bit of what you wrote

while I was gathering your manuscript at the theater.

Well, I...

You wrote it for the children, yes?

Yes, uh...

Well, Walter's mad about King Arthur, right?

Yeah...

So why don't you tell him about the true King of Kings?

-But... Why... -He'll love it!

As I recall, there's a fair bit in there about forgiveness

and understanding, among other things.

But... How shall I...

You know what to do, Charles. Go. Work some of your magic.

Oh!

My magic.

Can we do this without the cat?

Hmph!

Fine, but if that cat so much as...

Your magic.

Walter.

Hmph!

-I have something for you. -Hmph!

Hmm.

Hm?

Excalibur! My magical sword!

I'd like to tell you a story, son.

Hmph. If it's not about a king, then I'm not interested.

Oh! Well then, you're in for a treat.

Isn't that right, Charles?

Right! Yes!

It just so happens that this story is about a king.

The King of Kings.

Hm? Hm.

Does this story have wizards and dragons?

Better! It has angels

and wicked kings, jealous rivals and miracles!

Hm?

Some say it's the greatest story ever told!

In fact, your King Arthur's story is based on this story!

But, if you don't want to hear it, I understand.

Hm.

Hm. Oh, um, maybe just the first part.

Good.

Right. Now, our story be...

Get off of that.

Now, as I was saying,

our story begins 2,000 years ago

in the little town of Bethlehem in Israel.

Wow!

Where a man named Joseph

and a young woman named Mary

would soon bring a beautiful baby into the world.

W-Wait! Whoa! Stop!

Is this a kind of a baby story?

Well, this story does begin with a baby,

but this particular baby is the Son of God.

Hmm...

And at this very moment,

three wise men from the East are traveling very far,

following a star that is leading them to Bethlehem.

They're bringing special gifts to the baby, to worship Him.

The newborn King!

And the current king

will feel very threatened by this baby's very existence

and will stop at nothing to try to protect his own power!

- So you won't believe -Huh?!

What he does!

Consumed with jealousy and fear of what could happen

because of the baby he...

That is, if you'd like me to continue

with this, um, baby story?

Hm? Oh, um, it's ok. Go on.

Alright then.

At the time, Israel was under Roman rule.

And it was the law

that everyone traveled to their own town to be counted.

So, Joseph and Mary went to their hometown of Bethlehem.

Hi, we've been traveling for days...

No, no. Sorry. No room.

Hi, we've been traveling for days...

There's no room.

No, no! No room!

Oh!

Joseph and Mary just could not find a place to stay.

They looked all

throughout Bethlehem to the very outskirts of town.

Hi, we've been traveling for days and our hope...

I wish I could help, but I'm...

I'm afraid you're just too late.

Please, sir! I beg of you!

Please, we just need a little shelter! Just for...

I'm sorry. I...

Just for one night!

I'm sorry you came all this way just to hear no.

Oh, Mary.

The baby, it's time.

Ok, ok. Don't worry. It'll be alright. We'll just, uh...

I don't have a room.

Yes, I know. Thank you.

But there is a stable.

It's pretty empty. Just some hay in a manger.

Wait! Uh, what? What's a manger?

Uh, oh, uh, it's, uh,

like a little box that, uh, holds hay for animals to eat.

Oh, I see. Animals, stable, and yeah. Ok. Go on.

Joseph!

Mary! It's going to be ok.

The baby's coming!

Yes, here. Now come on. Lie down.

It's time!

Yes...

Ok, ok.

I got you.

And that's how baby Jesus came into the world.

A King born in the lowest and humblest of places.

At that point,

no one knew that a new King had arrived on this land.

But that would soon change.

You see, a glorious angel came down from the heavens

to spread the news.

I said a glorious angel!

Oh! Oh! You mean... Right!

Fear not! For I bring you tidings of great joy,

which shall be to all people!

Woah!

For onto you is born this day a Savior,

which is Christ the Lord.

Go to Bethlehem.

And you shall find the baby Jesus

wrapped in swaddling clothes,

lying in the manger.

Glory to God in the highest.

And on Earth, peace and good will toward men.

The shepherds ran to Bethlehem

to see the baby Jesus.

Meanwhile in Jerusalem,

three wise men from the East

had arrived at the palace of King Herod.

We observed His star at its rising,

and have traveled very far

to come pay our deepest respects to the King.

Yes. Where is the child

who is born King of the Jews?

King of the Jews, you say?

Oh, search no further.

You are bowing before the king of Judea now.

Oh, um, I'm afraid there's been a misunderstanding.

Scribe!

Well, Your Highness,

it is written by the prophets that...

out of Bethlehem, -

in the land of Judah,

will come a ruler

who will be the shepherd of my people, Israel.

Well, yes, of course!

As a matter of fact,

if another king of the Jews has been born in Bethlehem,

it would only be right for me to pay my respects as well!

Now, where exactly

did you say I might find this, er, newborn king?

We do not know... exactly where.

Well, when you do find out where I can find

this baby king shepherd of Bethlehem,

stop by on your way back and let me know.

Yes, of course, Your Majesty.

Yes, yes, yes, yes. Of course.

Hm. Scribe.

Hm?

Find him!

And just to be sure, find every child born in this city.

Huh?

It's Him.

The one the prophecy speaks of.

Excuse me. I... I don't understand.

We have traveled very far to witness this moment.

We bring gifts of gold.

Frankincense.

And myrrh.

Wow!

They're giving gifts fit for a king

to the newborn King.

Mm.

What?!

Those wise men returned home

without telling me where they found him!

King Herod was furious when he heard the news.

His voice echoed through the walls of his castle!

How dare they disobey the great King Herod!

Oh, I know!

Because they could tell that King Herod

was threatened by the baby's very existence!

Mm. So you are paying attention.

-Huh? -Mm.

Ummm, only to the king parts.

Fair enough.

Well, King Herod was beside himself

that people in the streets were abuzz with the news

of the newborn King.

I am the one and only king!

Yes, yes, Your Majesty! But maybe...

Yes?

Well, maybe it's just a story.

Your Majesty knows how much the people

love their stories. Eh?

Hmph. Well, I have a story for you!

It's about a soldier and his men

who go out and get rid of every child

under two years old

in or anywhere near the town of Bethlehem!

-Excuse me, Your Highness? -Now!

Meanwhile, back in the stable,

they knew nothing about King Herod's plan.

And it was almost too late

to save baby Jesus.

King Herod's soldiers are coming to take the baby!

Ahh! Hurry! They're coming for the baby!

Joseph! Joseph!

You must take Mary and the baby Jesus

and escape to Egypt at once.

Stay in Egypt until I tell you it's time to return.

Herod is searching for the child and will take Him.

Mary, Mary, Mary! We have to go!

Joseph? What's wrong?

We're in danger, they're coming for the baby!

What?! Oh no!

Search every corner of every room.

Don't skip a single house!

Let's go, soldiers! Move!

Over there!

Get the baby!

This way!

This way, I've found them!

Behind the house!

Move, move!

Open the door!

By order of King Herod! Open the door!

Quickly, Mary! Now!

Now!

-Go, go, go! -Out of the way!

Go, go on!

-They're gonna get the baby! -Up here!

This way!

Quick, quick! Come on!

Search every room in the house!

Go, go, come on!

This way!

Oh, no, no, no, no, no! Quick!

What is this?

Ah, my eyes!

I can't see anything!

Phew!

Are you alright, son?

Well, mmhm.

Did I overdo it?

Mm. Maybe tone it down.

We don't want nightmares.

Mm, no, I'm fine. Keep going.

You sure? It is well past your bedtime.

It's ok. I'm not tired.

Hm! Oh, so you want to hear the story now?

Mmhm!

Even though there aren't any dragons

or big Round Tables or magic swords?

Yes, well, you're so excited about telling it.

I might as well let you finish.

Uh, ok. So, wait.

Why does King Herod want to get rid of all those babies?

Well, you see, because

You see, because he was king,

he'd gotten used to everybody following

whatever rules he made up.

Hold on a sec.

Kings get to make up their own rules?

Yes, I'm afraid so.

Rules like "At work. Do not disturb?

Especially Willa!"

Yeah, well,

Why don't we get back to the story?

Years had passed

and during that time, King Herod died.

Meanwhile, Jesus was growing up in Egypt.

And when the time came,

Mary and Joseph returned to Nazareth

just as the angel told them to.

Um, how old was Jesus now?

Probably about your age.

We could've been friends!

Hey, Willa! Wait!

By the age of 12,

as Jesus was growing into a talented young carpenter,

it was clear that God was shining His light upon Him.

Now every year, Jesus, Mary and Joseph

traveled with a big group of family and friends

to join all the people of Israel

as they gathered in Jerusalem

for a very important celebration...

the Passover.

The ps... The pa... Wait, huh?

Passover.

Long ago, the people of Israel

were slaves in Egypt for 400 years.

To rescue the Israelites from Egypt,

God sent ten terrible plagues,

the last of which was the most terrifying.

But the people of Israel could remain safe

by smearing the blood of the lamb on their doors.

So then, the Israelites made their flight from Egypt

by crossing the miraculously divided waters of the Red Sea.

And so they gather at the Temple of Jerusalem

to celebrate this miracle every year

to offer sacrifices and give thanks to God.

And because the plague passed over,

the celebration is called...

Passover!

Exactly.

And so Jesus came to Jerusalem right here to the temple.

But where were his parents?

You'll see.

Jesus! Jesus!

Jesus! Please! Where is he?

Up there! He's over there!

We've looked everywhere.

The temple!

Of course!

Come on, Dad! Let's go!

You were sold for nothing.

And without money, you will be redeemed.

Jesus! Oh thank heavens!

What're you doing here? We've been worried sick!

Why?

It's been three days! We've been looking everywhere!

I'm sorry.

But I feel like this is where I'm supposed to be.

You know, in my father's house.

Uh, Dad?

Yes?

Gotcha!

Ok, uh... now where was I?

Uh, you were at the part where

Jesus pulls out his sword

and slays the giant fire-breathing dragon!

Ah. Nice try.

But no, you see,

Jesus was a different kind of king.

Well, did he at least know any wizards or...

No. But things are about to change.

Time passed and Jesus was now about 30 years old.

Was he king yet?

You mean, did He announce that He was the new King?

Yes!

-The one true King? -Yes!

Who would bring salvation to all?!

-Yes! -No.

Not yet.

You see, before that, God wanted a prophet

to announce the new King to the world,

and that prophet was a man named John the Baptist!

Repent!

For the kingdom of Heaven is near!

He was talking about Jesus' kingdom.

I baptize you with water for repentance.

But He who is coming after me is mightier than I.

He, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry.

He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit of fire!

Woah!

Behold!

The Lamb of God!

This is He, the Lamb of God

who takes away the sin of the world!

This... This is the one I was telling you about!

I'd like to be baptized.

No. No, my Lord.

It would only be right if you baptized me.

This is what my Father wants.

Wow!

"You are my beloved Son. With you, I am well pleased."

The Holy Spirit descended on Jesus that day.

It was God's way of letting everyone know that Jesus

would be doing His work on Earth from now on.

Because he was the king?

Soon.

First, Jesus began to fast in the wilderness

for 40 days and 40 nights, where He is tested by Satan.

Oh! Wow! Is this finally going to be the big battle

where Jesus draws his magical sword - shwing!

And slays the giant fire-breathing dragon!

Ha! Ha! Ha ha!

No, no, no. Not that. Much more impressive.

"If you are the son of God,

command these stones to become bread."

Man shall not live by bread alone!

But on every word that comes from the mouth of God!

If you're the son of God, throw yourself down.

For it is written,

He will command His angels concerning you,

and they will lift you up in their hands,

so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

It is also written,

"You shall not put the Lord your God to the test."

All this I will give you

if you will bow down and worship me.

Get away from me, Satan! I only worship and serve God!

Even though Jesus was tempted by Satan,

He defeated him using only the word of God.

No magic sword.

And I would argue that Satan is a little scarier than a dragon.

And now, it was time for Jesus to gather a few friends

to help Him along the way.

Hey! Just like King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table!

Yes!

Now, do you remember when I said that

your story was based on mine?

Yeah?

Well, this is what I meant.

Nothing.

Again.

Why am I not surprised?

You know, this is getting embarrassing.

Getting? We've been throwing nets all night

and nothing to show for it!

Sail into the deeper water and cast out your nets.

Huh? Who said that?

Wasn't me.

Well, wasn't me.

Uh, look, I know you're trying to help,

but uh, we've been fishing these waters our whole lives.

And I can tell ya,

nobody's ever caught anything over there.

But, you know, thanks anyway.

Come on. What's the worst that could happen?

We catch less fish?

Fine. Whatever.

I'm tellin' ya, we are not gonna see a single fish.

Have you ever seen so many fish?!

No! I can't believe this!

There's so many the net's about to break!

It's a miracle!

Wow! Look, Willa!

Look at all the fish! Ha! Look at all the fish!

What's going on?

We were out there all morning and there weren't any fish!

Well, not any more anyway.

I can't believe it. Thank you! Thank you, teacher!

Put down your nets and follow me,

and I will make you fishers of men.

But your catch will be followers of God.

Teacher, uh, you don't want anything to do with me.

I'm a sinful man.

Come. Don't be afraid.

And just like Peter and Andrew,

others followed.

Like James and John.

Hey! Hey!

Hi.

Then Matthew, the tax collector.

You can call me Levi.

I'm not so sure about this.

And Doubting Thomas.

And Little James, the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddeus.

Hey, your dad's name is Alphaeus too? Small world.

And there was Simon the zealot.

Hey, Jesus!

Philip, Bartholomew, and finally, Judas Iscariot.

-Woah! -Willa!

Twelve in all.

And off they went to spread the word of God

to the people of Israel.

It won't be long till the people learn

that Jesus is the true king, right?

In time, Walter.

Please! Spare me some coins!

I've been blind since birth!

Teacher, was this man born blind because of his sin?

Or because of his parents' sin?

You're asking the wrong question.

It doesn't matter if he's sinned

or if his parents have sinned.

It only matters that when we see him,

we see the work of God.

Can you fix my eyes?

If you have faith that I can do it,

it will be done.

Open your eyes.

Oh! I can see!

My eyes! I can see!

Thank you! Thank you!

Just make sure no one hears about this.

Oh, oh, yes, yes, of course!

Wait a minute.

There's a huge miracle, but he can't tell anybody about it?

That's right.

But why not?

Because they weren't miracles for the sake of miracles,

they were miracles to prove the power of faith.

But there are some people who don't take good news

-the way you think they will. -How is this possible?

Well, he, uh, I...

Who're you looking at?!

Looking at? No, nobody!

I-I... Oh, I've gotta go!

On that day, Jesus showed the power of faith

to many people.

This was a miracle to some,

but a threat to others.

Out of my way!

Walter!

What do you want of me, Jesus?

Son of the Most High God?

I beg you, do not torment me.

Unclean spirit, be silent and come out of him.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you.

What just happened?

It looks like he just moved the demons

from that man into those pigs.

Pigs went crazy and jumped into the lake!

He cured him of the demons!

Can Jesus control demons? Is that true?

Well, the demons knew that Jesus was the Son of God,

and they knew how strong His faith was, so...

So he defeated all of them!

Well, yes!

And word quickly spread about what Jesus had done.

Sick people came from everywhere.

To see the King!

To witness the miracle of faith

from a very special kind of King.

Can you take him?

Have you got him?

I got him!

Watch your foot!

Yeah, yeah, like that.

Gently, gently now!

We're sorry, Teacher.

Our friend's been paralyzed his whole life, but

he's had a stroke recently,

and now he's getting worse everyday.

And we... we were afraid you'd leave before we got to see you.

Please, can you help him?

Friend, your sins are forgiven.

What did he just say?!

I think he said that man's sins were forgiven.

After God forgave him, I assume.

He didn't say anything about God.

Well, that... that's blasphemy!

Pure and simple!

Why are you thinking these things?

Tell me, which is easier:

To say to this paralyzed man, "Your sins are forgiven,"

or to say, "Stand up. Take your stretcher and walk home."

I want you to know,

the Son of Man has authority on Earth to forgive sins.

Now stand up, take your stretcher and walk home.

Thank you, Teacher!

Thank you!

Why did Jesus say that?

Because He wanted the Pharisees to know

that He was the Son of God,

and that He had the authority on Earth to forgive sins.

The Pharisees, on the other hand,

believed that only God himself could do that.

So what did they do?

Well, let's see.

Now what do we do?!

They're talking about this guy everywhere

from Galilee to Jerusalem!

They're acting like he's a king!

Yes, the king promised by God!

But it is written that our king would be born in Bethlehem!

Like King David!

Not some poor, insignificant place like Nazareth!

Yes, but he does seem to be curing all kinds of sickness

and... and driving out demons.

Rumors!

But we saw it with our own eyes.

Forgiving sins!

He doesn't follow our laws!

He gains more followers every day!

So what do we do?

Punish him!

We can't punish him.

All of his followers will think our motives are impure.

Well, we can't let him go on like this.

Soon enough, everyone will believe in him!

I'll tell you what we'll do.

We make him fall into his own trap.

Since this man claims to have the power to forgive sins,

we'll give them a sinner who deserves to die in public.

And let his people see what he does.

So, you are the one they call teacher.

This woman was caught in the act of adultery.

Moses said to throw stones at such a woman.

What say you?

Yes. What do you say we should do?

Stone her! Stone her! Stone her!

As Moses commanded!

Wait, rocks?

Yes.

But wouldn't that hurt her?

Very much.

But... But that's wrong!

Jesus should do something to stop it!

Hm. Perhaps He should get a magic sword?

Yes! Yes! That will stop them!

Well, I suppose you're right.

Is that what he does?

Would you like to know what Jesus does?

Yes!

Hm...

Daddy!

Right. Where was I?

The rocks, Daddy! The rocks!

Ah, understood. Yes, thank you.

So, Jesus started writing on the ground with His finger.

Fine. I'll tell you what.

Anyone here who has never sinned

can throw the first stone.

Go ahead. I'll wait.

You?

No?

Huh. Every one of you has sinned?

Huh...

Imagine that.

It's alright. They're gone now.

No one is here to condemn you.

Really?

Not even me.

Now go,

and from now on, sin no more.

And He did it all without a magic sword.

Because the King of Kings doesn't need a sword.

Hm?

You see, many people were using the word of God

to try to manipulate...

Who wants biscuits?

I do! I do! I do!

Yes, very good. Very good.

Thank you, dear.

Mm! Mm!

Now let's get back to the story, shall we?

Where is everyone going?

Let's follow them and see.

Who needs a doctor? The healthy or the sick?

So, who needs the word of God?

The righteous or the sinner?

I did not come here to be served.

I came here to serve.

To give my one life for the benefit of multitudes.

Teacher, these people have been here all day.

Some haven't moved from this spot.

They have to be hungry.

Give them something to eat.

Teacher, that's impossible.

Even if we pull together all that we have,

it won't be enough.

Walter. Go on.

Oh.

Here you go. I hope this helps.

We have two fish and five barley loaves.

Have the people sit down in groups.

But... But, My Lord,

there's not nearly enough food here

to feed all of these people.

Oh, thank you!

Pass it along! There is more for everybody!

Thank you, Jesus!

Pass it along!

Tell them to take as much as they want.

And then pass the baskets along to the next group.

After everyone's eaten,

gather and fill the baskets with all that's left over.

Lord! How?

Let's make Jesus king!

Grab Him so He can't leave us!

No! He told us to return to our homes!

Well, we can't just let Him go.

Jesus is the only one who can save us!

Jesus, why aren't you coming with us?

I'm going to go pray.

Then we'll wait here with you.

No. Go ahead. I'll be right behind you.

Yes, Teacher. We'll do as you say.

Come on. Let's go.

Come on, Willa.

Why is Jesus going to pray alone?

Honestly, I don't think you're here

because you saw God work His miracles through me...

I think you're here because I fed you.

And you want more.

Come on! Come on! Keep rowing!

We're all going to die!

We have to... We have to turn back now!

Judas!

Hold tight!

We need to pull the sail down!

It's going to be ok, Willa!

Come on! Come on!

Peter! Look!

There's something out there!

Huh? Woah!

Oh no! It's a ghost!

I'm here. Don't be afraid.

Lord! If it's really you,

command me to come to you on the water!

Come, Peter. Come to me.

Peter, no!

Ahh!

Peter!

Lord! Save me!

You doubted. That's why you fell.

Have faith in me and you will be saved.

So, tell me,

who do people say that I am?

They think you're one of the prophets.

Some say John the Baptist

who has died and come back to life.

Others say Elijah.

Ok. Then who do you say I am?

You're the Christ. The Son of the living God.

Well said, Peter.

Like your name, on this rock,

I'm going to build my church.

And nothing from the gates of Hell

will ever stand in its way.

It shall happen according to your word.

But don't tell the people yet.

When I go up to Jerusalem,

I will suffer many things and be killed.

But three days after my death, I will rise again.

No. No! No!

What do you mean die?! That will never happen!

Get behind me, Satan!

You are a stumbling block to me.

If it's what God wants,

I'll accept it. And so should you.

Does Jesus think he's going to die?

He knows it.

But I don't want him to die.

I don't want that either.

But Jesus still had a few more lessons to teach us.

About dying?

About dying for all of our sins.

Remember, Jesus said that He would be raised from death

and come back to life in three days.

But, what if he can't?

He showed them a clear sign that He would come back.

Jesus!

Martha. Mary!

Jesus!

What happened?

Our brother Lazarus... has died.

Where is he?

So, the great teacher

wasn't even able to save

one of his closest friends!

After healing all types of sickness everywhere.

And now he's here at Lazarus' tomb.

What could he possibly do here?

Take away the stone.

But My Lord... he's been dead four days!

There will be an odor.

If you believe, you will see the glory of God.

Father, I'm grateful that you heard my prayers.

Now help me show these people why you put me on this Earth.

Lazarus! Come out!

What did he say?

I think he's trying to raise Lazarus from the dead.

But that's impossible!

Yes, and if he can't,

no one will ever follow him again.

Problem solved.

I mean, unless Lazarus just walks out of the...

It's a miracle!

Oh!

He's back from the dead!

It's a miracle!

Oh! Lazarus, you're alive! My brother!

Unfortunately, every time Jesus showed God's grace,

He brought on the wrath of the Pharisees,

who were threatened by Jesus' closeness to God.

What do we do now?!

How did he bring a man back to life

who'd been dead for four days?!

Now the people are openly calling him king.

They swarm him wherever he goes. It's a spectacle!

What do we do if the Roman government finds out?!

They'll think the Israelites are revolting against Caesar!

We can say goodbye to our comfortable lives

with the Roman government.

We have to do something!

Why don't we just kill him?

The people love him!

If we go after him, they'll rebel against us.

Then we turn the people against him!

And then we kill him.

Mary, what are you doing?

You know how much that oil's worth?

We could've sold it to help the poor.

Leave her alone.

You will take care of the poor long after I'm gone.

Remember,

Mary has been keeping this to prepare me for my burial.

Hosanna!

Over here!

Notify the high priest.

Hosanna!

They have no idea what's coming.

None whatsoever.

He should've stayed away.

Hosanna! Hosanna!

Huh?

Willa? Willa?

-Willa! -What happened, Walter?

She got away!

Oh? Hm. Well, it looks like she's gone.

Maybe we'll get a dog next time?

Oh!

Walter! Walter, wait! Careful! Walter, please!

Willa! Willa, where are you?!

Hey! Come back! Willa! Willa!

Walter! ...Oh!

Erm,

excuse me. So sorry.

Oh! Sorry, sorry!

Wa... Whoa!

Uh, sorry! So sorry!

Got you!

Oh, oh!

Huh? Oh. Willa!

How did you get...

You found her!

Woah!

Mm. Bad, bad kitty!

Thank you, Daddy.

It's mine!

Sell it! Take the money and go!

You should charge more.

The people will pay whatever you tell them.

How dare you!

Get away from me! Get away from me!

Enough! Enough of this!

You turned my Father's house into a market?!

This... This is a house of prayer! Of worship!

And you! You make it a den of thieves!

Go ahead.

Destroy this temple.

And I will rebuild it... in three days.

Three days?!

Only three days?!

Do you see how he insults this temple?!

Do you see?!

Here. Payment for what you will do.

No! My Lord, my Teacher, I...

I should be washing your feet.

If you don't let me wash your feet,

you can't be a part of this.

Now just as I am washing your feet...

you should wash one another's feet.

Oh, look at that!

That tickles!

Jesus showed His disciples how much He loved them

by washing their feet.

Even a King can serve his subjects.

Take. Eat.

This is my body. Given for you.

Drink this. All of you.

This is my blood.

God's new covenant poured out for the forgiveness of sin.

Every time you do all this, remember me.

Truly I tell you one of you will betray me.

One of you here with me now.

John, what is He saying?

Lord, who is he?

Judas.

It can't be someone here!

Do what you have to do.

Lord! Lord, I would never leave you.

Even if everyone abandons you...

I'll tell you...

this very night,

before the rooster crows,

you will deny you know me three times.

What?! No! No, Lord!

That will never happen!

Peter... Peter, Satan will try to take your soul.

But I have prayed that your faith

will be strong enough to come back.

And when it does,

you'll help your brothers become stronger than before.

This sorrow is crushing the life out of my soul.

Stay. Stay here and pray with me.

Jesus prayed that whole night.

He prayed harder than He'd ever prayed before.

My Father...

is it possible to let this cup of suffering

be taken away from me?

I want your will to be done. Not mine.

Hm. Why is Jesus praying like that?

Because He knows He's about to make a very big sacrifice.

Sacrifice?

But why?

Jesus knew He had to die for our sins.

Die? I don't understand.

Mm.

Ah!

Looking for this?

Ah! That's the one. Thank you, darling.

Woah!

Now, when God created the world,

He made it beautiful and perfect for us

to live with Him forever.

He made us in His own image.

And He created Adam, and He created Eve.

God gave Adam and Eve all the world to enjoy

and to take care of.

But there was one thing that He warned them they shouldn't do.

He told them that they should not eat

from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

For if they did, they would surely die.

But one day, Satan disguised himself as a serpent.

A what? What's a serpent?

A big snake.

And he convinced Adam and Eve to break God's rules.

Go on. When you eat this,

you'll be like God Himself!

And you will certainly not die.

They ate the fruit from the tree.

And God was extremely sad.

That was how the relationship between God and man was broken.

Since that day, we have lived separately from God.

Oh no! That's terrible!

Yes, it is because to be separated from God

is to be separated from life!

But God didn't want that for us.

And that is why God gave the world

His only beloved son to die for our sins.

Huh?

Jesus is about to be in the same situation as us.

A completely broken relationship with God.

And Jesus prayed so very hard because He knew so well

how painful that would be.

Gosh. Jesus must feel so sad.

Yes, son. Yes.

You fell asleep?

What?! Teacher!

You couldn't stay awake with me for one hour?

Teacher, I...

Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.

Get up.

It's time.

The man who will betray me is here.

This way.

Which one is Jesus?

Peter!

He's the one I will kiss.

What is... What is this?!

Stop!

My ear!

Peter!

That's enough.

He who lives by the sword will die by the sword.

I could pray to my Father to send an army of angels

to rescue us, but how would that glorify God?

How would that fulfill the scriptures?

You come here with swords and clubs to capture me?

Am I leading a rebellion?

Every day I sat in the temple courts teaching

and you didn't arrest me.

Now you're here because you think it will stop me.

Yet, everything you're doing will only prove

that the writings of the prophets were true.

No one is innocent here! Arrest everyone!

If you're looking for me, here I am. Let these men go.

Hm.

He's the only one we need. Take him!

Go! Arrest him!

Mention the sin this person has committed.

That person is the friend of tax collectors and sinners!

He cured the sick on the Sabbath!

He's just a carpenter!

And he dared to teach the word of God!

He said he was able to destroy the temple of God

and rebuild it in three days!

Is this true?

I hear that you call yourself Christ, the Son of God.

Mmhm.

Say it again in front of us.

You have said so.

But I tell you, from now on, you will see

the Son of Man seated at the right hand of power

and coming on the clouds of heaven.

Blasphemy! This is outrageous!

This is outrageous!

What more do we need?!

This alone is punishable by death!

By death! Death!

Yes, yes! Death penalty! Yes!

Yes! Death penalty! Death penalty! Death penalty!

But Jesus didn't do anything wrong!

Hey, aren't you one of Jesus' disciples?

No, no! I'm not!

Hey, everybody! This is one of Jesus' disciples!

You're wrong!

-Yes! He is one of them! -No! I don't know him!

-He's one of them! -Traitor!

He's lying! He does know him!

Nooo!

Oh!

Ah, you're the guy who travels around with Jesus.

What? No, I... No! No, I do not know the man!

This very night, before the rooster crows,

you will deny you know me three times.

No! No! No! What have I done?

Oh no. No.

No! No!

No!

Well! This is going much better than I expected!

Yes, I mean, in no time everything will be

back to normal.

After we've killed Jesus,

we can get right back to spreading the word

of God's mercy!

Here. Take it.

I don't want it. I...

I sold an innocent man's life for this!

This has nothing to do with me.

Deal with your sin.

What have I... What have I done?

Stop it! Stop hurting him!

This was the burden

that Jesus carried with Him all that time.

It's why Jesus prayed so hard.

Because He was willing to suffer

so that we wouldn't have to.

Here you go. A crown fit for a king.

Heh. Got to have a robe too.

King of the Jews! Peace be upon you!

But can't we help him?

Yes. Not the way you think.

Prefect! We've been waiting!

So, what do we have on the docket today?

Goodness. Couldn't we start off

with something a little lighter?

He's been given a good whipping! Isn't this enough?

Fine. Let's get on with it.

He's a liar! And a criminal!

And of what crime do you accuse this man?

This man

has seduced the people into believing

that he is the Christ!

The only son of God Himself!

The great king of the Jews!

This man has even forbidden the people

from paying taxes to the Roman Emperor!

Hm. King of the Jews.

Hm.

Well, are you king of the Jews?

You have said so.

Hm. I find no guilt in him. Let's move on.

Take him away

and take care of him by the letter of the law,

nothing further. Go on.

You know we don't have the authority

to execute someone!

This man should be... crucified!

Yes! Crucify him!

No!

This is what you would have me do?

You would truly crucify this man, your king?

We have no king but Caesar!

Crucify him! Crucify!

It is a custom during your time of Passover

that the governor of Judea

commutes one prisoner's death sentence

by popular acclaim.

So, which one do you want me to release to you?

The murderous Barabbas,

or Jesus who is called the Messiah?

Free Barabbas! Free Barabbas! Free Barabbas!

Crucify Jesus!

No, no, no, no! Release Jesus! Release Jesus!

As you wish.

Take him and nail him to the cross.

I wash my hands of this.

I am innocent of this man's blood.

No!

Wait! One more thing.

Jesus of Nazareth! King of the Jews!

No!

No!

Alright! Now who wants his clothes?

Very well! We'll cast lots for 'em!

Hey, Jesus! I thought you were gonna break down the temple

and rebuild it in three days.

Yeah, if you really are the son of God,

why don't you get off that cross?

Maybe then we'll believe you!

The great king of kings!

He saves everyone else, but he can't even save himself!

Father... Forgive them.

They don't know what they're doing.

Hey, if you are who you say you are,

why don't you save yourself?

And us, while you're at it!

Leave Him alone!

He's done nothing wrong!

And He's facing the same punishment we are!

He's a fraud.

He deserves this... as much as we do.

Jesus...

remember me when you come into your kingdom.

Truly I say to you,

today you will be with me in Paradise.

Eloi Eloi lama sabachthani!

My God! My God! Why have you abandoned me?

Look at him! Jesus is calling Eloi!

Let's see if Eloi comes to save him!

It is finished.

Father, my spirit is in your hands.

If you have faith that I can do it,

it will be done.

Open your eyes.

Oh! I can see! My eyes!

I can see! Thank you!

Unclean spirit! Be silent and come out of him!

He just moved the demons from that man

into those pigs!

Now stand up,

take your stretcher and walk home.

Thank you, Teacher! Thank you!

Lazarus! Come out!

Oh! Lazarus! You're alive!

My brother!

Jesus! Save me!

You doubted. That's why you fell.

Have faith in me and you will be saved.

Daddy, look!

Why is Jesus' tomb open?

Well, do you remember when Jesus said

He will put the temple back together in three days?

Mm.

Wow! He really is alive!

We're alive again because He is risen.

Oh wow! He came back to life in three days!

Just like He promised!

He's really alive again!

Oh wow! Everyone should hear this story!

Oh wow!

Wake up! Wake up!

-Walter, what are... -Oh, come on! Quick!

What are you doing?

-Wake up! -What's going on? I'm sleeping.

Here. Keep it.

I... Really? Why?

Daddy just told me the greatest story

about the greatest King ever!

Really? Better than King Arthur?

Way better than King Arthur!

-What?! -Really?

In fact, King Arthur's story was based on this story!

No way!

Yes, yes! It's about the true King of Kings!

Woah!

And it's got angels and wicked kings!

And oh! Miracles and all kinds of stuff!

So? How did it go?

Well, seems to have gone quite well.

Hm. Seems so.

Just as I knew it would.

Mmhm.

I just worked some of my magic, you see?

Yes, dear.

... that Bethlehem had a new King

and you'll never believe what He did...

You were certainly right.

Hm.

It is a great story.

Thank you, Catherine.
