Series Details

God, the Creator and Giver of life, has given us the Bible. In this book, God explains the greatest problem of mankind: sin and spiritual death. The Bible also reveals the solution: the redemption from sin and spiritual death through Jesus Christ.

Some of these words like “redemption,” “sin,” “the Bible,” and even “God” may not be personally meaningful to you. Perhaps this is the first time you are hearing about the God of the Bible. Or perhaps you have experience in the Christian way of life and seek to learn more about Him again. It is obvious that you are very religious or spiritually minded. This is evident from your desire to learn about God and the Bible. This series of lessons is designed to build your faith around the good news of Jesus and what He has accomplished for all mankind.

The first lesson explores the beginning of everything which can be found in the book of Genesis.

Adam and his family tried to maintain a connection with God through the sacrifice of animals. The joy of their simple life with children would soon be spoiled by sin.

What does the word "church" mean to you? For some there may be a feeling of peace and harmony. For others there may be skepticism, negativity, or ambivalence. The church meant a lot to Jesus. He died for the church and purchased the salvation of those in the church with his blood (Acts 20:28).

Such a testament of love and sacrifice shows the value placed by Jesus on the church. The church had great value for us as well. We can understand God's purpose for the church in a pure and simple way. We can overcome the confusion caused by the well-meaning yet misguided intentions of those who may love Jesus but see little value in His church. This series of studies provides an overview of what the church is, how it operates and why it matters.
