Creation

Genesis 1; 2:1-3, 15-18, 21-23, 25; 3:8, 23 (NLT)

In the beginning there was only God. God created the world in six days. During those sixdays He created everything. He simply spoke and created the sun, moon, stars, land,

plants, and animals. God also created people. He patterned them after Himself.

The first man was Adam. God put Adam in a beautiful garden and he had everything he

wanted to eat. God gave Adam one command, not to eat of the tree in the middle of thegarden, because if he did, then he would die.

Then God decided that man should not be alone. So He caused Adam to fall asleep. God

took one of Adams ribs to make the first woman, Eve. Adam was very excited becauseEve had flesh and bones just like he did!

And God blessed Adam and Eve. He told them to have many children, and He made them

masters over all the animals in the garden. Adam and Eve walked closely with God. Theyhad a right relationship with Him. Adam and Eve wore no clothes and they were not

ashamed.

And then God looked at all of His creation and saw that it was good. So on the seventh

day He rested because He had finished creating the world.

Fall of Man

Genesis 2:4-3:24 (NLT)

God placed the first man and woman, Adam and Eve, in a garden. God providedeverything they needed to live. There were beautiful trees that produced delicious fruit.

There was a tree in the middle of the garden, and God told them not to eat the fruit fromthat tree. If they ate that fruit they would die. Adam and Eve wore no clothes and they

were not ashamed.

One day as Eve was walking in the garden a snake came to her and asked, Did God tell

you not to eat from any tree in the garden? Eve said, No, He said not to eat from thetree in the middle of the garden. The snake told her, If you eat from this tree then you

will be like God. Eve looked at the fruit and it looked really good to her, so she ate itand then gave some to her husband Adam.

After they ate the fruit they felt very ashamed and realized that they had no clothes on. So

they covered themselves with leaves. When Adam and Eve heard God walking throughthe garden they hid. God called for them saying, Where are you? When the man and

woman came out, they said to God, We were afraid because we have no clothes on.God asked them, Who told you that you have no clothes on? Did you eat the fruit I told

you not to? Adam told God that Eve had given him the fruit. Then Eve told God that thesnake had lied to her.

So God punished Adam and Eve. And He also punished the snake. He made Adam and

Eve clothing out of animal skins. And then God sent Adam and Eve out of the garden.Because of their disobedience, Adam and Eve were separated from God. They were

never allowed into the garden again.


On the palm of a hand is a fruit surrounded by a vine. On each side of that vine is a heart.

One heart represents God and the other heart represents man. When the man and womansinned, they were separated from God. The vine and the fruit are a symbol of that

separation.

Cain and Abel

Genesis 4:1-16 (NLT)

After God sent Adam and Eve out of the garden, they had two sons, Cain and Abel. Cainwas a farmer, and Abel was a shepherd. Cain brought some of the fruit as an offering to

God, but Abel brought the best of his flock as an offering to God. God liked Abelsoffering but was not happy with Cains offering. Because of this Cain became very angry.

God asked Cain, Why do you look so angry and upset? God cautioned him to do theright thing. He told Cain that if he didnt do the right thing, his anger would lead him to

sin. Cain did not listen to God and he became even angrier. Cain led his brother, Abel,out into a field and killed him.

After Cain killed his brother, God asked him, Where is your brother? Cain lied to God,

and said, How should I know? Then God became very angry with Cain, saying, Whathave you done! I know what you have done to your brother. God punished Cain, saying

that he would no longer have a good harvest in his fields and that he would be homelesson the earth. Cain knew this punishment was more than he could take, and he said,

Anyone who sees me will kill me. So God put a mark of protection on Cain so thatanyone who saw him would not kill him. Because of Cains sin he was separated from

the presence of God.


In this drawing there are four shapes in the middle of the hand that tell the story. Thesefour shapes are distinct. In one is a fruit. This is a reminder that Cain worked the soil. In

the next shape is a peacock. This is a reminder that Abel took care of the animals. In thenext shape are small leaves. This is a reminder of Cain bringing only his fruit as an

offering. And the next shape you see a more decorative beautiful flower, this is areminder that Abel gave the best of his animals to God.

Noahs Ark

Genesis 6:1, 5-21; 7:1-23; 8:1-21; 9:7, 12-17 (NLT)

People continued to fill the earth, but their thoughts were completely evil. God was sadthat He had made them. He said, I will destroy all the people and animals that I have

made by sending a flood. However Noah was a man who followed God, and God waspleased with Noah.

God told Noah to build a boat, so that his family would be saved from the flood. God toldNoah exactly how He wanted the boat to be built.

When the boat was finished, God told Noah to take his family and two (male and female)

of every kind of animal on the boat, and enough food for the animals and Noahs family.Then God sent the flood. For many days water filled the earth, and all of the living things

left on the earth died. But Noah and his family survived and God sent the wind to dry theland.

After some time, Noah sent a dove out of the boat, and when it returned it had an olive

branch in its beak. Because of this Noah knew that the land was dry enough for him andhis family to leave the boat.

As they stood on dry ground Noah gave an offering to God. God was pleased withNoahs offering and He promised to never again destroy the earth with a flood. God put arainbow in the sky as a reminder of His promise to Noah and his descendants.

God blessed Noah and his family. He told them to have many children and fill the earthwith people.


The rainbow is a reminder of Gods promise to not flood the earth again. The peacock is

a reminder of the dove that Noah sent out looking for land. Just below the peacocks beakis a branch. This is a reminder of the olive branch that the peacock brought back to Noah

after the flood.

Gods Promise to Abraham

Genesis 12:1-7; 15:1, 4-6; 21:1-5; Genesis 22:1-19; 1 Kings 5:7 (NLT)

Even though the people were separated from God, He still wanted a relationship with

them. This is a story about Abraham and the promise God made to him. God toldAbraham to leave his country, his people, and his fathers household to go to a place that

He would show him. God promised to make Abraham a great nation with its owncountry. He also promised that all peoples would be blessed through him. Abraham

obeyed God and left. A while later, God spoke to Abraham in a vision, saying, Yourdescendants will be as many as the stars. Even though Abraham and his wife were old

and had not been able to have any children, Abraham believed God. Because of hisbelief, he had a right relationship with God.

God did carry out the promise He made to Abraham. When Abraham was 100 years old

his wife gave birth to a boy. After the boy had gotten older, God told Abraham to take his

son to a mountain and give him as a sacrifice. So Abraham obeyed God, and took his sonto the mountain. When Abrahams son saw his father preparing for the sacrifice, heasked, Where is the goat we will sacrifice? Abraham told his son, God will provide.

Then just as Abraham was about to kill his son, an angel said, Stop! Do not kill the boy!Now I know you really obey God because you were willing to give your son as a

sacrifice. Then Abraham looked and saw a goat nearby. Abraham and his son offeredthe goat as a sacrifice to God.

And God kept his promise to Abraham, giving him many children. And just as

God promised, Abrahams children grew to be a great nation.


In the fingers there are numerous stars. This is a reminder of God saying to Abraham,Your descendants will be as numerous as the stars in the sky. There is a rainbow in the

hand; this represents Gods promise to Abraham and the fulfillment of his promise whenhis son was born.

Moses

Exodus 1:8-14; 3:1-12:50; Joshua 1:1-5 (NLT)

Abrahams descendants did become a great nation just as God had promised. But laterthey were enslaved in a foreign country and treated badly. God did not forget about His

promise to His people. God used a descendant of Abraham to bring His people out ofslavery. His name was Moses and this is his story.

One day Moses was watching his sheep when he saw a burning bush. God called Mosesfrom the bush, and told him, Moses, I am the God of Abraham. I have heard the cries of

my people in slavery and I want you to go and rescue them. God told Moses that hisstick that would turn into a snake on command. God did this to show the people that He

had appeared to Moses. Moses told God that he was not very good at speaking in front ofpeople and asked him to send someone else. God told Moses to go and told him to take

his brother with him to help.

So Moses and his brother left to plead with the King for the freedom of Abrahamsdescendants. But the King was very stubborn and would not let the people leave, even

though he saw Moses stick turn into a snake.

Because the King would not let the people go, God sent nine plagues on the land. But theKing would not change his mind. So God sent one more plague to kill all the firstborn

sons in the land. Before this plague, God told his people to kill a perfect lamb and put theblood on the doorframes of their houses. Abrahams descendants obeyed and none of

their sons died.

After this, the King released Abrahams descendants from slavery, and they left theKings land. Many years later God brought them to a new land that He had promised to

them.


In the middle of the drawing, there is a burning bush. This bush has 10 flames around it

symbolizing the 10 plagues God sent on the land. Above that bush is a rainbow; this is areminder of Gods promise to bring the people out of slavery.

Promise Story

Joshua 1:1-5; Joshua 24:2-28; Isaiah 1:2; 7:14; 49:6, 53; Jeremiah

God did keep His promise to Abrahams descendants, and He brought them to the landHe had promised them. The people continued disobeying God, and they remained

separated from God. He sent many messengers to His people. One of them was Isaiah.Isaiah had a special message of hope for the people.

He told them, God will send a Savior, and He will be born to a woman who has neverbeen with a man. Some will treat Him badly. He will suffer and carry our burdens and

sorrows. He will be whipped and beaten to bring us peace.

We are all kind of like sheep, arent we? Sheep will wander off the path, and we alsowander away from Gods path. We sin and disobey God. But God is putting all of our

sins onto the Savior.

The Savior will be like a lamb, being led to a butcher. He will be killed for our sins. Butthen, He will rise from the dead. Because of this, many people will have a restored

relationship with God. This is why God calls Him a light to the nations.

This is the message of hope Isaiah gave to the people and from that time on, they waited

eagerly for the Promised Savior.


The rainbow in the hand represents Gods promise to all mankind that One would cometo take on all of our wrongs. The sun is a reminder that after the Promised Savior died He

would come to life again, seeing the light of day. The sun is also a reminder that theSavior is a light to the nations. The rainbow is at the bottom of the design and

everything on top of it symbolizes the Promised Savior carrying our burdens.

The Birth Of JesusLuke 2:1-7; 2:25-32; Matthew 2:1-11; Matthew 1:21; Luke 1:26-32; Matthew 1:22

This is the story of how the Promised Savior came into the world

Mary and Joseph were engaged. Before they got married, an angel came to Mary and toldher she would become pregnant through the power of Gods Spirit. He told Mary that shewas to name Him Jesus. He would be great and be called the Son of the Most High God.

The angel also said that Jesus would save people from their sins. All of this happened just

the way God said through the prophet Isaiah.

Before the baby was born, the King told everyone to return to their hometowns to beregistered. Joseph and Mary had to travel to Bethlehem. When they arrived there, they

had to stay in a stable because the city was full of travelers. So Mary gave birth to Jesusin a stable.

A little while later, there were a group of wise men who saw a bright star in the sky. Theyfollowed the star, knowing that it would lead to the place where Jesus was. When they

arrived, they saw Jesus and worshipped Him.

Several days later, Mary and Joseph took Him to a place of worship to dedicate Him toGod. When they arrived at the temple, a man named Simeon was there. God had told

Simeon that he would not die until he saw the Promised Savior. When Simeon saw Jesus,he was excited, saying, He will be a light to the nations and because of Him the people

will know God!


There is a star at the top of one finger that is a reminder of God putting a star in the sky tolead men to the place of Jesus birth. The sun at the bottom of the drawing is a reminder

of Simeon calling Jesus a light to the nations.

Paralyzed Man

Mark 2:1-12, Luke 5:17-26

One day, Jesus was in a house teaching people about God. The house was completely

full. Four men had heard that Jesus was teaching in this house. They brought their friendto Him. He was on a mat and could not walk, but there was not any room for them tobring the man in the front door. So they went to the roof, made a hole, and lowered him

down in front of Jesus.

When Jesus saw the man and his friends and that they believed Him, He said, Your sins

are forgiven. Many religious teachers were in the house and thought, He cant do that!Only God can forgive sins. Jesus knew what they were thinking and said, What is

easier: to say, Your sin is forgiven, or to say, Get up and walk? Then Jesus said, Iwant you to know that I can forgive sins. Then He told the man to get up, take his mat,

and go home. Immediately the man stood up, and took his mat, and went home.

The people were amazed, saying, We have never seen anything like this!


On the wrist there is a square design; this is a reminder of the mat that the paralyzed manwas brought to Jesus on.

Under the mat design there are footprints that are a reminder that after Jesus healed the

man he got up, took his mat and walked.

Demon Possessed Man

Mark 5:1-20

One day as Jesus was stepping out of a boat a man with an evil spirit saw Him from adistance. He was known for cutting himself with rocks and screaming through the night.

When they tied him up, he would break the chains they tied him with. No one couldcontrol him.

When the man approached Jesus, he fell at His feet. Jesus said to the evil spirit, Comeout of that man! After this, the evil spirit said, Why are You bothering me, Son of the

Most High God? Promise You will not torture me!

Then Jesus asked the evil spirit, What is your name? He answered Jesus, Army,because there are many of us inside this man. The evil spirit begged Jesus not to send

them far away, but to allow them to go into a herd of animals nearby. So Jesus gave thempermission. When the evil spirits went into the animals, all the animals ran down the

hillside, into the water, and drowned.

The men watching over the herd of animals saw what had happened and ran to tell manypeople in the area. Soon there was a crowd of people who had come to see what had

happened. The people saw the man who used to have an evil spirit sitting down and in hisright mind. But they were still afraid and asked Jesus to leave.

As Jesus was stepping into the boat to leave, the man came to Jesus and asked Him, Can

I go with you? But Jesus told the man to go home and tell others what God has done foryou! So the man went to ten towns in the region telling about Jesus, and everyone was

amazed.


On the bottom side of the hand there is a small pile of rocks. That is a reminder of how

the man would cut himself with stones.

Then you see two lines. One line does not have a break in it and the other does have abreak in it. The one with the break is a reminder of the condition the man was in before

he met Jesus. He had a problem no one could control or fix. These spirits bound him. Butafter he met Jesus he was set free; Jesus set him free from the evil spirits. The cross is a

reminder of this. Then you will see a mango design through the fingers. There are ten ofthem that are a reminder of the ten towns the man went to, to tell his story.

The Narrow Road and The Wide Road

You can enter Gods Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell isbroad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But the gateway to life is

very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it. Matthew 7:13-14

(NLT)I am the way, the truth, and the life!" Jesus answered. Without me, no one can go to the

Father. John 14:6 (CEV)

Over the last few months you have heard many stories. You have heard how we are far

from God because of our sin. You have heard about Jesus and how He died for all thewrong things we have done. Jesus says, I am the way, the truth and the life. I am the

way to God. He also says that there are two ways. One way leads to life and the otherway leads to death. Following Jesus means that you are on the path that leads to life, the

path that leads to a right relationship with God.

Jesus says that if you ask God to forgive your sin and follow Him alone, then you willhave life. There is only one way to God, and that is Jesus.


There are two roads that both start on the left side of the hand. One way is narrowerthan the other. The way that is narrow has a flower at the end of it, and the other roadleads down to the bottom right side of the hand. This way is wider than the other. The

flower at the end of the narrow way depicts life.

During His time on earth Jesus went about healing people and forgiving their sin. There

were some religious leaders and teachers who became angry with Jesus because He saidthat He and God were the same. They began to look for a way to kill Him. They were

finally able to arrest Him and have Him killed.

Jesus was whipped and beaten and put to death on a wooden cross. His hands and feet

were nailed on two pieces of wood and He hung there until He died. After He died, Hisbody was put in a cave and closed with a large rock.

Three days later, some women came to the cave and saw that the rock had been moved

and His body was not there. Then two men dressed in white appeared to them and said,Why are you looking in this empty cave? Jesus has risen from the dead just like it was

foretold.

Later when the followers had gathered talking about what all had happened, suddenlyJesus was among them. They were afraid and thought that they had seen a ghost. Jesus

said, Peace be with you! Then Jesus told them that all of this happened to fulfill Godsplan that the Promised Savior would suffer and die and rise from the dead. He told them,

Wait here for me to send you Gods Spirit. When it comes, then go and tell everyone.Teach them to obey what I have taught you. Have everyone who believes in me go

through a symbolic washing of water to show that they have turned away from the wrongthings they have done and turned to God.

Creation to Christ

Genesis 1:1-27; Genesis 2:15; Genesis 3; Genesis 6:1; Genesis 6:9-22; Genesis 8;Genesis 9:12-17; Genesis 12:2-4; Genesis 15:4-6; Genesis 21:1-5; Exodus 1:6-7; Judges

2:11; Judges 3:12; Isaiah 1:2; Isaiah 53:4-6; Isaiah 53:10-12; Isaiah 7:14; Isaiah 49:6;

Matthew 2:1-12; Mark 1:29-34; John 10:28-39; John 8:12; Matthew 27:35-28:10; Luke24:40-48; Romans 3:22-25; Romans 6:23; Romans 10:9-10 (NLT)

God created the whole earth, and when He did, He created the first man and woman. Thefirst man and woman lived in a beautiful garden. God gave them one command, not to eat

the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden. But they didnt listen to God and theyate the fruit. And because they were disobedient they were separated from God.

And then they had children, and their children had children, and their children hadchildren. They were all separated from God. When God looked down on the earth, He

saw all the evil in the hearts of the people. So He decided to destroy the whole earth witha flood. But there was one man named Noah. Noah had a right and good relationship with

God. God told Noah to build a boat, so that his family would not die in the flood. Noahobeyed God. God sent the flood and water covered the land. When the land finally dried,

God made a promise to Noah, and to all people after Noah, that He would never destroythe earth with a flood again. And the sign of that promise was a rainbow.

Many years later, there was a man named Abraham. Abraham and his wife had no

children and they were very old. But God said to Abraham, I am going to give you manychildren and I am going to bless the whole world through your family. So Abraham

believed God and God considered him to be in a right relationship with Him because ofhis trust. God kept His promise and gave Abraham a son. God made a huge people group

out of Abrahams descendants.

But the people were still separated from God. So God gave a message to a man namedIsaiah. This message was about a Promised Savior who would come and take on all of

our wrongs. He would be born to a woman who had never been with a man. He wouldtake on all of our wrongs although He had done nothing wrong. He would die as the

punishment for our wrongs, but He would come back to life again. Because of what thePromised Savior does, we will be restored to a right relationship with God. The Promised

Savior was called a light to all nations.

Well, everything happened just the way God said it would. Jesus was born and God put astar in the sky to bring men to the place of His birth. Jesus was perfect and He performed

many miracles that proved He was Savior. He said, I am the light of the world, and

whoever follows Me is no longer in darkness. Many people believed Jesus, but therewere some who didnt. They were angry with Him because He said that He and God werethe same. So they put Him to death; they hung Him on two pieces of wood in the shape of

a cross. They put nails in His hands and feet, and He died. On the third day, Jesus cameto life, just as it was foretold.

The wrongs we do separate us from God. Jesus was the perfect sacrifice for all the wrongthings we have done. But we can be made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus


33/34

Christ alone. If we ask forgiveness of our wrongs, declaring that Jesus is God, andbelieve that Jesus came to life after His death, then we can have a right relationship with

God. This is true for everyone!


The apple at the bottom of the hand is the fruit Adam and Eve ate in the garden. The

rainbow represents promise. The first promise in the story is the promise God made toNoah and to all people after to never destroy the earth with a flood again. It also

represents the promise God made to Abraham and the promise to all people for a Savior.The flame in the drawing is a reminder of the Savior being called a light to all nations.

The star is a reminder of the birth of Jesus. The cross is a reminder of the death of Jesus.The flower represents life. Jesus came to life after three days!
