Supplies Needed:
Directions for Making Salvation Bracelets:
1) Cut a 10″ piece of Elastic Cord. Use any color of elastic you would like. Black doesn’t show dirt and wears well. However, Royal Blue can be used to signify “water” for Baptism.
2) Tie a loose knot about 1 1/2″ from one end of the elastic cord. Make piles of 5* beads each) Black, Red, White, Green, and Yellow. *To make larger (adult) bracelets, cut elastic cord to 12″ and use 6 beads of each color .
3) Begin by stringing the 5) Black Pony Beads.
4) Next, string 5) Red Pony Beads.
5) Add 5) White Pony Beads next.
6) Next, string 5) Green Pony Beads.
7) Finally, add 5) Yellow Pony Beads.
8) Make another loose knot on the end by the yellow beads.
9) Once ends are secure, tie bracelet together.
10) Instead of cutting the extra cord, simply pull beads back and tuck ends of cord under the beads!
Salvation Bracelet Color Meaning:
Black: represents “sin”. Sin separates us from God. Romans 3:23 and 6:23
Red: represents “the blood of Christ”. Jesus shed his blood on the cross to pay for our sin. Romans 5:8 and 1 Peter 3:18.
White: represents “clean and pure”. When we accept Jesus and turn from our sins, our hearts are made clean and pure. John 1:12 and Romans 10:9
Green: represents “growth”. Once we accept Jesus, we need to grow in prayer, bible reading, and fellowship. Matthew 18:20 and John 1:7
Yellow/Gold: represents “heaven”. God has prepared a place for us in Heaven. John 14:2-3
Royal Blue Elastic Cord: used to represent the water for Baptism.
What a great idea. I believe there is a typo. One of the verses for green should be 1 John 1:7 not John 1:7. It makes more sense for the context. Otherwise the simple explanations are very good.
