IMPORTANCE OF BIBLE STUDY
Attending Bible study classes is extremely important in the victorious and sanctified life of the Christian. By His spoken Word God
made the heavens. By His spoken Word He brings and also keeps us in the faith. Christians who desire His blessing and help in life
will read, mark, and inwardly digest the Word of God.
(1) But through scripture, the Holy Spirit works to mature us in our faith. The Holy Spirit works through the Living Word: For the word
of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it
judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Hebrews 4:12.
(2) Faith comes from hearing and receiving the Word of God: Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message
is heard through the word of Christ. Romans 10:17.
(3) It serves to guide, correct, and encourage the faithful: All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting
and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16-17.
TYPES OF STUDIES
Throughout the year, the courses being offered either ground themselves in a study of a particular portion of scripture or a topical
study that incorporates scripture. Therefore, courses will be designated either as scriptural or topical.
COURSE SCHEDULE
Looking at this year's course schedule, you will see that some of the courses offered have been taught before here at Our Redeemer
over the years, such as Dr. Shana Stuart's "Stories in Stained Glass - Our Redeemer's Windows."
Still yet, some courses are unique and might only be offered once such as Pastor Hartwig's study of the book of Micah.
May God richly bless you as you spend time studying scripture and what it teaches!
