Instructions to Guide You in This Study
1. Begin your study by having prayer. You need to
understand what the Bible teaches. God has promised to
help you, and God keeps his promises. As you pray, you
can thank God that He will help you understand. Pray with
faith. Put John 16:13 to the test!
2. First, clicking

(THE

that you are required to read. Read the online textbook
the first time only skimming for the major ideas . This
will help you to initially focus on the various aspects of
the Subject you are studying.
3. Now, go back and read the textbook very carefully. As
you read, key into a notepad or word-doc any thoughts that
you want to add.
4. Next, write
out your own
personal affirmation of how you came to accept the Bible
as the inerrant Word of God.
5. If the Bible is indeed the Inerrant Guide for
all of mankind, then it must be considered as the
"Handbook for the Human Mind." Write out a list of not
less than twelve (12) areas of life where the Bible gives
clear guidance (counsel) on these issues. For example:
marriage, divorce, the use of money, dealing with anger,
confronting someone with whom you may have strong
disagreements, etc. Be sure to list a number of the
actual Scripture references dealing with the issues you
have chosen.
6 .
Meditate! Continue to think about what the Bible teaches.
Memorizing some of the key verses will produce valuable
results.
7 .
Never lose faith in the Bible as God's inerrant Word to
you personally. With God's help you can be a faithful and
effective Christian witness and worker.
Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that
needeth
not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth
2 Timothy 2:15. 2 Timothy 2:15.
