This course is to identify and explain the Doctrines in the Sacred Scriptures, (The Bible). “The course is in no sense intended to be a treatise on Systematic Theology”[i] (MBT). A limited number of the most vital and practical doctrinal themes have been chosen, and an attempt has been made to adapt these brief discussions to the needs of the Course. The students will learn about the character and universality of sin, and that they are victorious over sin and death through salvation in Christ Jesus. They will be introduced to the New Testament Church; particularly its purpose, commission, service, stewardship, organization, ordinances, and rewards. The course concludes with an introduction to the end times theology. These areas cover the Tribulation, Great Tribulation, Millennial Kingdom, and New Heaven and Earth.
A general survey of the Old Testament, highlighting its organization, overall themes, historical context, and major events, as well as keywords, names, and places mentioned in each book. Written over a span of more than one thousand years by numerous authors, the thirty-nine books of the Old Testament were written in a variety of literary genres and provide the reader with a clear description of who God is through his dealings with humanity and the nation of Israel.
Students who complete this course should be able to:
Demonstrate the ability to identify the purpose and themes of the books of the OT
Articulate the basic content of the OT as well as its message, theology, and teaching
Be familiar with the broad outline of the historical and geographical context in which the OT was written (able to recognize/identify key people, places, events, and dates, as well as some key worldview differences between ancient times and today)
Understand the message, structure, and content of each OT book
This course is a study of evangelism and missions in which we will discuss and develop the biblical foundation and a practical solution to living out the command and commission of God. We will examine previous movements, and methods, of both personal and Church Evangelism, Outreach, and Missions.
