Sincere Christians may disagree on certain things without harm. These are called "disputable matters" in Romans 14:1 or "non-essentials." The Apostle Paul gives clear instruction on how to deal with non-essential matters that might otherwise divide us. Is it not a command of scripture to agree on the essentials and not to argue (discuss, yes, but not argue) about the non-essentials?
The questions is this. What are the essentials that all Christians agree upon? What are those topics you believe are beyond dispute? What beliefs are absolutely essential - fundamental - to being a Christian? This Bible study course guides you through an examination of many of the key questions about God and Creation. Compare your thoughts and beliefs with others in the class. Be open-minded (in humility and love) to consider other perspectives. The goal is unity in the faith. Not unity at any cost; but Christian unity nevertheless. |
A Unique Way to Study Most Bible studies tell you what the answers are to the questions they ask. Not so with this course. The goal of this study is prayerful, Spirit-led, discussion between loving Christians. This course offers a systematic examination of the scriptures with questions that foster serious thought and discussion. There is room in the book to record the answer you feel is true to God's Word, as revealed by the Holy Spirit, with love and forbearance for those of slightly differing views. The overarching purpose of the study is to investigate, in a private or group setting, what are the essential truths and beliefs of the Christian faith. Not all Christians agree on every point - but we must agree on a basic set of doctrines. Not everyone who claims to be a Christian is truly born again. There is a need for believing faith in the proper teachings. However, Christians need not agree on everything. So, what is essential and what is not? Rather than just being told the answer, this study leads you through your own investigation and facilitates your discovery of these essential truths. With reliance upon the Holy Spirit, the author of the Holy Scriptures, these essentials will become clear.
