    00:19 Look, Mom! 00:21 I drew our family in school today! 00:23 Oh, wow! 00:25 I didn’t have time to finish Caleb’s face. 00:28 Carrie drew two mommies. 00:30 She told me they’re married to each other. 00:32 My teacher says that all that matters 00:34 is that people love each other and that they’re happy. 00:36 Hmm. 00:38 Well, people have their own ideas about what is right and wrong, 00:41 but what matters is how Jehovah feels. 00:44 He wants us to be happy, and he knows how we can be happiest! 00:48 That’s why he invented marriage the way he did. 00:51 You mean one man and one woman? 00:53 Exactly! Look at Genesis 1:27. 00:56 Jehovah created Adam and Eve, male and female. 01:00 Then in Genesis 2:24 he said 01:03 that “a man will . . . stick to his wife.” 01:06 Later, Jesus said the same thing! 01:09 Jehovah’s standards haven’t changed. 01:13 It’s kind of like going on an airplane. 01:15 What would happen if someone wanted to bring 01:17 something on the plane that wasn’t allowed? 01:19 They couldn’t go on their trip! 01:21 Right! It’s the same with Jehovah. 01:24 He wants us to be his friend and live in Paradise forever! 01:29 But we have to follow his standards to get there. 01:32 At Matthew 7:13, 14 it talks about the road leading to Paradise. 01:37 To get there, Jehovah says we have to leave some things behind. 01:41 That means anything Jehovah doesn’t approve of. 01:48 But I want everyone to get to Paradise! 01:50 So does Jehovah! And you know what? 01:53 People can change! 01:55 That’s why we share his message. 01:57 So, what can you say to Carrie? 02:00 Well, I can tell her about the Paradise. 02:03 I can tell her about the animals and the resurrection! 02:06 That’s awesome! Let’s practice.
