Symbols of God's Word

The scriptures use many symbols to illustrate the importance of reading and using the words of God, given to us in scriptures and through holy Prophets.  Studying these symbols can teach us how to better use the words of God we have been given.


"He who knows most about us, our potential, and our eternal possibilities has given us divine counsel and commandments in His instruction manuals- the Holy Scriptures.  When we understand and follow these instructions, our lives have purpose and meaning.  We learn that our Maker loves us and desires our happiness."    -M. Russell Ballard 
The printable is available if you are interested in studying this more.  Even young children enjoy illustrating the things that they are learning about in the scriptures.
