The First Principles

Discipleship Study Course

For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be
the first principles of the oracles of God.
Hebrews 5:12

One of the greatest needs of Christianity is to be discipled - to be taught how to live the Christian life! Jesus said to His "disciples," to go out and "teach all nations!" (Matthew 28:19). The whole purpose of preaching the Bible is first to instruct people of their sinful condition, and their need for the Saviour, and then to train them as Jesus did His disciples. These Bible Study courses will aid the student of God's word to learn "all things whatsoever I (Jesus) have commanded you!"  There are Twenty One Bible Study Lessons to work through and enjoy. These are no "simple" studies, or time wasters - they are milk, mixed with just the right amount of spiritual meat to help any seeking sinner find salvation in Jesus Christ, and every believer find the courage to stand for their Lord, and serve Him with full confidence in His perfect word!
