This book has been written for children and presented to the People of God as a means of fulfilling the earnest wishes of the Church - that the treasure of revelation, entrusted to the Church, may more and more fill the hearts of the people. The purpose of this book is to show you how God has loved His people in the Old Testament, and to help you to know and love Jesus Christ still more when you see him living among us in the Gospel.

Moses wrote about the early story of the human race, how God made the world and man, how sin and suffering had come. He showed how the Children of Israel came to be chosen as the special nation of God. He then led them on toward the Promised Land. The rest of the story tells how the Children of Israel served or did not serve God and how God promised a Savior.

The Gospel tells the story of Jesus Christ, the Divine Word Incarnate, God's own Son living among us. Without Him neither salvation nor holiness is possible.

The more you study the divine plan according to the Gospels, the more you see that Jesus Christ is true God and true Man; He is the center of creation and redemption. Through Him every grace is given to us and all glory rendered to His Father. May this book help you to love Him with all your heart as your Savior and your Friend!
