Adam and Eve lived in the Garden of Eden, they were pure -
without sin - as the CLEAR bead represents. Then Adam and Eve
both sinned by eating fruit from the forbidden tree. The BLACK bead
represents sin. Many years passed and people were full of sin before
Jesus came and died on the cross. The RED bead represents the
blood of Jesus. Because Jesus died for our sins, we are washed
clean. The BLUE bead symbolizes being washed. Now that we are
clean, having been washed by the blood of Jesus, we are represented
by a WHITE bead. After accepting the cleansing blood of Jesus, we
study, pray, and learn how to live as Christians. The GREEN bead
represents growing in Christ. The YELLOW bead stands for glory and
symbolizes living in Heaven with Jesus and having eternal life.
