Jesus Christ.  You have probably heard of Him, but who was He? Is Jesus God?  Is He the Son of God? Was He both deity and man? How important is the birth of Jesus? Is Jesus birth more important than His death? What happened to Jesus after He died? Was Jesus really raised from the dead or is He still in a grave somewhere near the city of Jerusalem?

One of the most fascinating people of all time is Jesus Christ and you may learn about Him through a free Bible study course.

The Old Testament prophets.  One of the greatest sections of the Bible involves men who were called "prophets."

Old Testament prophets are often classified as "major" or "minor."  Some think "major prophets" describes the most important prophets.  The truth is that "major prophets" were prophets who wrote a lot of material, and "minor prophets" were prophets who wrote a lot less material.

If you are taking the free Bible study course offered through this Google blog, you have learned about the united kingdom as well as the divided kingdom in Israel. Now you are ready for some really exciting information about the "prophets in Israel."  With your free Bible study course you will read about men like:

Isaiah [ישעיהו]

Micah (מיכה)
Nahum (נחום)
Habakkuk (חבקוק)

If you chosen to take the free Bible study course offered through this Google blog, you may now be ready for lesson 7.  In the previous Bible study on the "United Kingdom," you are now ready to learn about the "Divided Kingdom."

Israel had been a united nation for many years.  God was its "King" for several years.  Then the time came when the nation of Israel wanted an earthly king to be like the surrounding nations.  God allowed the nation of Israel to have a 40 year reign under Saul.  Then David reigned for 40 years.  Solomon then reigned over Israel for 40 more years.  Then the kingdom of Israel "split" into northern Israel.

One cannot appreciate some parts of the New Testament without having some understanding of the Old Testament. If you are not currently enrolled in this free Bible study course, use the link on this page to start the process today.  You will enhance your understanding of the Old Testament and learn a lot more about the New Testament.

May God richly bless your efforts to study and better know His word!

If you are taking the free Bible study course listed on this Google blog, you may now be ready for the fifth lesson in this home Bible study course.

Having completed the first four lessons you know how the Bible has been passed down to man throughout the ages.  You have studied some of the basics in the area of Bible interpretation, and you know about how Adam and Eve both succumbed to sin. 

Your knowledge of the Old Testament "patriarchs" such as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob has now brought you to an understanding of how the Old Testament nation of Israel came into being.  God promised that Abraham would have many descendents, and this promise came true.  Abraham's family ended up in the land of Egypt and grew into a mighty nation.  God delivered this great nation from their Egyptian bondage and this vast group of people back stabbed God.  Israel was unfaithful to God on multiple occasions, just as people today can be unfaithful to Him. 

The fifth lesson in this free Bible study course talks about the "wilderness wanderings" of Israel. If you want to know what the Bible says about Israel's wandering in the wilderness, this study will help you.  Of course, to get this lesson you must first complete the previous Bible studies.

If you are searching for things like "how to understand the Bible," or "how to be saved," be sure to request the free Bible study course listed on this site.  No one will call you, come to your home, or ever ask for money. 

If you are taking the free Bible course on how to be saved and have completed the first three lessons on how the Bible came into existence, how to properly divide the word of God, and studied about man's fall into sin, you are now ready to learn about a major division in the scriptures.

The Old Testament has some important information about men called "patriarchs."  Three of these men are Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.  It is important to know about these three men because they lay the foundation for much of what is said in the Old Testament.  It was through these men (the patriarchs) that God created the nation of Israel and eventually brought Jesus into the world.  In Gal. 3:16 Paul said:  "Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ."

If you want to learn about Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, plus get the truth about things like the "new birth," ask for the free Bible course available through the link on this blog.

If you have signed up for the free Bible study that provides an excellent overview of the Bible, what God requires people to be do to be saved, and how to live as a Christian, you may now be ready for the third lesson.  This third Bible study course is entitled, "The Creation and Fall of Man" and this is pretty much self-explanatory.

The Bible says mankind is affected by something called "sin" (Rom. 3:10, 23).  Sin breaks man's fellowship with God (Isa. 59:1-2), and man's sins must be forgiven if people want to have heaven as their eternal home.

You cannot receive the Bible study lesson involving the creation and man's fall unless you first complete the studies on how we received the Bible and "rightly dividing the word."  If you have not yet signed up for this free Bible study course, use the "how to be saved from sin" link to sign up for this free Bible course today.  You might also want to encourage a friend to ask for this free course as well as it will bless his (or her) walk with God.
