Jesus101-250Introduction:

We all have questions. The questions we have about life, eternal life, sin, and salvation are serious questions. The four Gospels that are included in the New Testament are written to address those questions. This booklet is written to help guide you through the Gospel of Mark so that you can learn about Jesus, understand who He is, what He did, and find out what that means for you today. If people want to learn how to follow Jesus it only makes sense that we walk with Jesus and His disciples(followers) through the story of his life.

It is also important that we see this as a story that is taking us somewhere. Mark doesn’t give us all the answers up front. In fact, Jesus even keeps his identity a secret until Mark 8 when Peter makes his confession. It is important that we experience this story and let it unfold in our minds so we can discover exactly who Jesus is and what that means for us.

Are You Really Sure Of Your Eternal Salvation?"

by Ron Boatwright

Welcome to studying the Bible on the Internet. You are to be commended for your interest in studying God's word, the Bible.  This course pertains to a very important subject concerning our Eternal Salvation. What subject could be more important? It is my hope that the scripture references pointed out in this course will be of benefit to your faith in your striving to go to heaven.

This course is divided into twenty-five (25) lessons. After each lesson you are asked to answer several interactive multiple choice and true-false questions concerning what you have just studied. The correct answer is found in the scripture reference that is listed with the questions.  Click on the answer of your choice and a dialog box will appear telling you if your answer is correct or wrong and why.  It is my hope and prayer that this course will help you in some way.

Who are the Churches of Christ?  [In the way of the First Century Church]

The answer to this is very simple, and to illustrate this I will give you the most prevalent comment or question by a person who first visits one of our Sunday morning services. Regarding that we sing our songs “A-cappella”, they will predictably ask the question: “Why don’t you have any music?”, that is to say without a choir, piano, organ, or any other musical instrument. The answer to this question is the answer to “Who we are”. There are scriptural reasons, but the real answer is that We are attempting to do things In the way of the First Century Church. That same visitor will see that we drink Grape Juice and eat pieces of unleavened bread weekly, in the way of the First Century Church, and we Baptize those who want to be new Christians by fully immersing them in water, in the way of the First Century Church, We have a plurality of elders and deacons as leaders of each individual church, in the way of the First Century Church. Everything that we do, we attempt to do in the way of the First Century Church. Please take the time to worship with us and ask your questions to someone attending.
