Weekly Bible Studies

Class Environment

This is a Weekly On-Line Bible Study, utilizing the Zoom Platform, every Monday Evening, from 5:00pm - 6:30pm Central Time.

Class Workbooks

We use the John MacArthur Bible Study Workbooks, along with our Bibles. The Old Testament books are brown, while the New Testament books are blue.

My testimony

 I am No Pastor, No Preacher, nobody special, just a normal guy, now a Disciple of Christ, a Believer, who got baptized in 2018, after I Retired, just to check off something from my bucket list! I "Only" wanted to get Baptized, didn't know I was going to Spiritually Change INSIDE!!! Before this transformation, I'd NEVER planned on going to Church Every week, I NEVER planned on going to Weekly Bible Study every week. I NEVER planned on doing Weekly Volunteer work every week I NEVER planned on reading Scriptures during the week, Etc. Etc Etc... Heck, All I wanted to do, was get Baptized, to make it to Heaven, kinda "thinking" from growing up, and since I hadn"t been Baptized before, I wouldn"t make it there!! Over time, with more Knowledge from God, and after a few months, I was a changed man, and learned, it was Much More, than just getting Baptized to make it to Heaven. I Never had any understanding of the Trinity and the Power of the Holy Spirit ...I NEVER had a relationship with God before....NEVER knew Him...Never knew so many things about the Bible.... e.g. NEVER Knew what the RAPTURE was, NEVER heard what the TRIBULATION PERIOD was....NEVER knew the differences between the OLD or NEW Testaments....Etc...ETc....Etc...Shoot, I was kinda ashamed to tell anyone I just didn"t know these things...Yea, I heard of Him, Knew of Him...Knew of Jesus....believed in God...kinda thought, I was a good person and I"d get to Heaven...But, what I learned along the way, in my conversion, I was dead wrong....It"s a PROCESS to change, for one to be, Born Again (JOHN 3:3, 3:5-8) and for some, like me, it doesn"t magically happen overnight!! But 1st, one needs to WANT to Repent now from their heart and soul to God, Or, get Baptized, or Re-Baptized, to grow in the faith and Obedience to God, and it starts from there. For those that are already Saved, those Believers, We all need to bring others to the Lord. 

the purpose of being involved with bible studies

My Beliefs

My belief of Christianity is centered around one God and the teachings of {Jesus Christ}. I believe that through Daily prayers, attending Church weekly, Weekly Bible Studies with others in fellowship, and any other Christian Spiritual activities, will keep you connected with God, staying NEAR to HIM, and as disciples of Jesus Christ, it is our obligation, to bring others to Christ, so they can enjoy their fruits of Salvation, once they die and, HOPEFULLY meet Him face to face. As we all know, there are some, that just don't want to hear about Jesus, but we need to plant our seeds and pray that the Holy Spirit finds those individuals. Bible Studies play a HUGE part, in providing much needed Wisdom and Knowledge, for those who are uninformed of God's Living Words, in helping them break down Bible Verses, to gain a better feel for the Bible, and allow the Holy Spirit, to grow in their Hearts and Souls! 

Bible class format

The Weekly Agenda, changes slightly, depending on "where" we are in the John MacArthur Workbooks, because he tends to SKIP chapters at times, in the Old Testament Books. But generally, the below steps are what we follow. And, each week, I will update the Task Assignment so everyone will be prepared on what to Study for!
