Bible Study Guide Lessons
Lesson 1: Is
God Calling You?
God's calling is His invitation to have a relationship with Him.
Are most people called today? Have you been called? If so, how should
you respond to God's calling?
Lesson 2: What Is Faith?
The Bible says that without faith we can't please
God and that the goal of our faith is salvation. God wants us to have
living faith so we can grow in our relationship with Him. So what is faith,
and how do we receive it and grow in it?
Lesson 3: Repentance—A Permanent Change of Direction
What is repentance?
Is repentance merely an emotional feeling? Is it really necessary for
salvation? What does the Bible say about how to repent—and why?
Lesson 4: Should You Be Baptized?
What is baptism and what does this ceremony
represent? Is Peter's command to "repent, and let every one of you be baptized" still
relevant today?
Lesson 5: How to Receive God's Holy Spirit
After baptism in water, the
Bible shows that God's ministers put their hands on the new convert and
prayed for the person to receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. What is
the Holy Spirit and how can we use this gift to transform our lives?
Lesson 6: Growing in God's Grace and Knowledge
Christian conversion does
not end with repentance and baptism. God calls on us to change, grow and
overcome to become more like Him throughout our lives. Through the power
of the Holy Spirit, we can have Christ formed in us.
Lesson 7: Eternal Life as God's Sons and Daughters!
The plans, promises
and prophecies of the Bible all lead to one thing—a potential almost beyond
human comprehension! What does God have in store for you?
