Salvation Book:
Once we give our life totally and completely to Jesus, we need to learn how to continue in that salvation every day. Write the verses that you think will help you, or a friend, continue their relationship with Jesus “after” salvation.
Part I
Look at the following sentences, (be careful, some are not what they seem). Write the verse it is under the proper symbol below. If it has to do with the vine or fruit, place the verse number under the grapes. If it is a command or about commandments place it under the scroll and Bible, if its a verse about loving one another put it under the hearts, but if it is a false teaching or a verse about being cast into the fire, write the sentence or the verse number under the picture of fire. (Example: verse 30 or sentence 10 [S-10] ). The first one is done for you.
