Bible Word Fun
     by Lucille Dass

 

Words-Worth

How creative can you get? See if you can create related expressions from these words

or form your own meaningful expressions with the initial letters.

E.g. BIBLE = Best Inspired Book of Love-story Ever-told

Best Information Before Leaving Earth

Best Inspired Book of Love for Everyone etc.

BEATITUDES = Beautiful Attitudes

FAMILY = Father And Mother I Love You

Find other words from the Bible and work on them in a similar way. You’ll be surprised to find yourself so inspired!

Treasure Hunt

Take the word TREASURES and create as many words as you can from it. Do not repeat the letters unless they are also repeated in the word. (E.g. rest, tree, seat, sure, or true.) After that, pick words that are likely to be found in the Bible (without looking into the Bible - at first!). Then look into the sections in the Bible where you think the words will be found. How many did you find?

Bible Bits

Read through these bits drawn from the Bible and provide the related information. You may refer to the related Scripture references if necessary.
