Seminary Journal Printables

I was startled by the words of Jarom "What could I write more than my fathers have written?  For have not they revealed the plan of salvation? (Jarom 1:2)"  I had just read the words of his fathers- recorded by Nephi, Jacob, and Enos but I couldn't remember a single chapter on the Plan of Salvation!   I challenged myself to find the Plan of Salvation in the Book of Mormon and over the next year I recorded every reference to the Plan of Salvation that I could find in the Book of Mormon.

They were literally sprinkled throughout the Book of Mormon, and as I collected them in one place I developed a greater clarity and understanding of God's Great Plan of Happiness than I had ever had.

I developed this Seminary Scripture Journal Printable to help seminary students have a place to record what they learn about the Plan of Salvation as they read through the Book of Mormon.

The three-page printable has a title heading for many of the major milestones in the Plan of Salvation: Pre-Mortal Life, Satan's role, Creation, the Fall, the Atonement, Our Life Today, After we Die, Resurrection, the Millennium, Final Judgement and Eternal Life.  Each heading also has a little doodle that goes along with it to add some interest and maybe a little insight to the Plan of Salvation. 

After the headings and doodles have been glued in you need to take a ruler and draw a line down the page to separate the references from "What I Learned".  

Each heading can be given one or two pages.  You won't have any trouble filling two pages with scripture references, parts of the Family Proclamation, and relevant quotes from Latter-day Prophets. 

Another powerful study I have done as I've read through the Book of Mormon is to identify the lies of the devil that are exposed in the Book of Mormon.  I've added to the printable the page headings and arrows needed to add this to your Seminary Scripture Journal too.  Look here for more information about the lies of the devil and the TRUTHS found in the Book of Mormon.  

The Book of Mormon is such a blessing! 

My prayers are with you as you teach from it this year.

Lies of the Devil

"The Book of Mormon exposes the enemies of Christ.  It confounds false doctrines, it fortifies humble followers of Christ against the evil designs, strategies, 

and doctrines of the devil in our day." 

-Ezra Taft Benson

Several years ago I started collecting the lies of the devil I found as I read the Book of Mormon.  I recently put a bunch of them together into a handout for a class I was teaching.  They would make a great last minute lesson for youth or adults. It's nice to have something printed up and ready at a moment's notice.  

The first page is a collection of lies of the devil found in the Book of Mormon.  The second page, in the corresponding word bubble or shape is the TRUTH found in the Book of Mormon.  I was surprised to see how a solid understanding of the Plan of Salvation helped debunk most of the lies of the devil.  It reminded me of the importance of teaching the Plan of Salvation and reading the Book of Mormon in our home!

Plan of Salvation Study Guide

“The great plan of salvation is a theme which ought 

to occupy our strict attention, 

and be regarded 

as one of heaven’s best gifts to mankind.”

-Joseph Smith

History of the Church 2:23

During a lesson in Relief Society the teacher read the quote above about the Plan of Salvation occupying our strict attention.   I could draw the standard Plan of Salvation diagram with its circles and slashes with my eyes closed, what more was there to study?  It bothered me, until I discovered bits and pieces of the Plan of Salvation scattered throughout the Book of Mormon.  Jarom, a descendant of Lehi asks, "what could I write more than my fathers have written?  For have not they revealed the plan of salvation?" (Jarom 1:2).  

The Plan of Salvation is given life and color and clarity in the words of the Book of Mormon!

I wanted a way that I could record these bits and pieces in a way that would allow me to study and learn more about each part of the Plan of Salvation.   I also wanted something that my kids could work on as they independently read the Book of Mormon (when they are a little older)- a way for them to find the truths of the Plan of Salvation in the Book of Mormon.  

I ended up creating a study guide for the Plan of Salvation.  It can be filled out as a project, or just added to as you read through the scriptures.  I have mine in a three ring binder which allows me to add pictures, more pages, and conference talks that are illuminating, like this one!  

The Plan of Salvation truly is "one of heaven's best gifts to mankind" and actively searching out the doctrines has helped me to see more clearly the things which God would have me do here on earth, and the person that He would have me become!
