"Greatest Heroes & Legends Of The Bible, Vol.2" Includes: "The Apostles"; "The Last Supper, The Crucifiction and the Resurrection"; "The Miracles Of Jesus"; "The Nativity" and "The Story Of Moses". "The Apostles": "The Apostles" begins with a miracle. Peter, having been filled with the power of the Holy Spirit, heals a man who has been crippled since birth. The Crowd that witnesses the miracle is amazed, but Peter reminds them that he performed this wondrous act for one reason only - to glorify Jesus' name. It becomes clear that Peter and the other Apostles are in great danger. The religious authorities see them as a serious threat, however, some of the persecutors are themselves converted. Among them is a man who will eventually become the most ikmportant Apostle of all. "The Last Supper, The Crucifiction and the Resurrection": The religious leaders in Jerusalem gather in a shadowy room, trying to decide what to do about a trouble-maker known as Jesus. Knowing that His days on earth are numbered, Jesus gathers His disciples together for The Last Supper, reassuring them that He will be with them in spirit. Jesus retires to a garden to pray, but is captured by soldiers, having been betrayed by Judas, one of His disciples. Jesus is crucified, but does not truly die. On the third day after His crucifixtion, He is resurrected - eventually fulfilling His destiny by ascending to Heaven. "The Miracles Of Jesus": John the Baptist tells the people, "I will baptize you with water. But the one who follows me is far greater... He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit!" John's words initially mystify the people to whom he speaks. But when Jesus begins to preach, they sit up and take notice. And when the young carpenter from Nazareth performs a string of miracles - the healing of the sick... the transformation of water into wine... and the multiplying of fishes, to name just a few - the true meaning of John's statements becomes clear.
