Gospel of Nicodemus

The Gospel of Nicodemus is a very old story that talks about Jesus and what happened to him after he died. It's a book that people used to read a long time ago to learn more about Jesus and what he did for people.

In the story, Nicodemus is a man who was friends with Jesus when he was alive. Nicodemus is really sad when Jesus dies, but then something amazing happens. Jesus comes back to life! Nicodemus can hardly believe it, but he knows that Jesus must really be special if he can come back to life like that.

The story talks about when Jesus returned to heaven and people talking about how he died for our sins. It's a reminder for us that Jesus loves us and did a very big thing to show us that love.

The Gospel of Nicodemus is very important because it teaches us about how much Jesus loves us and what he did to save us from our sins. Even though it can be a bit hard to understand sometimes, it's a really special story that we can learn from, even as 5-year-olds.
