Free Bible Word Search Instructions

NOTE: There are several more printable Bible word search puzzles on this site, including Apostles, Books of the Bible, Plagues of Egypt, the Prophets, and the Tribes of Israel.

HOW TO PLAY. Like all word searches, the goal of this free Bible Word Search is to find the words hidden in the puzzle. The words in this puzzle are all found in the Scripture, both Old Testament and New Testament.

Here are the words hidden in this puzzle:

• Bethlehem - birthplace of Jesus

• Church - the Christian Church

• Deuteronomy - fifth book of the Old Testament

• Eternal Life - the promise to Believers

• Faith - required for Salvation

• Galatians - a New Testament book containing the epistle to the Galatians from Saint Paul

• Galilee - sea located in the Holy Land

• Goliath - giant Philistine warrior slain by the future King David

• Good Friday - the Friday before Easter Sunday

• Grace - the state of sanctification by God

• Last Supper - last meal of Jesus and the Disciples before the Crucifixion

• Moses - the Hebrew prophet who led the Israelites from Egypt across the Red Sea during the Exodus

• Parable - short moral story told by Jesus

• Paul - known as Apostle Paul, one of the most influential early Christian missionaries

• Psalms - an Old Testament book consisting of a collection of 150 poetic, religious songs

• Redeem - deliver; save from sins

• Sanctify - to sanction an action or practice as religiously binding

• Serpent - physical form of Satan in the Garden of Eden

These words are also listed to the right of the word search. Look through the letters of the puzzle until you find a word, then cross the word out by dragging your mouse across the letters of the word in the puzzle.

This causes a blue line to be drawn through the word, and the word is removed from the Bible word list automatically.

Word Search Tips

If you get stuck and need a hint, click the "Hint" button. You can use this button only once.

Clicking this button causes the first letter of one of the words in the puzzle to flash repeatedly as your hint.

Words can be forwards, backwards, or at an angle in the puzzle. One trick for quickly finding words is to start with words that have a double letter.

For example, the word Galilee has a double "e" at the end. Similarly, the phrase Last Supper has a double "p".

The double letters are usually easy to spot in the puzzle. Check for those first to give yourself a head start.

I really enjoy word search puzzles. I hope you had fun with this free Bible Word Search!
