Savior of the World: 13 – The Godhead
Study #13 In Matthew 28:19,20 Jesus commissioned His disciples to go into all the world and make disciples (followers of Christ) of all nations, teaching them to observe all things that He commanded them.

Savior of the World: 12 – The Blessed Hope
Study #12 In our earlier studies we discovered that God has obtained salvation full and complete for the entire human race in Jesus Christ. However, when it comes to actually experiencing this full salvation in the life of the believer, it is realized in three stages. The first is referred to as justification by faith. This […]
Savior of the World: 11 – Law and Grace
Study #11 Closely related to our last study of the two covenants is the issue between Law and Grace. These two are opposites when it comes to salvation. The law says you have to obey in every detail to live; while grace says, believe in Christ and you will live. Consequently, many Christians find it […]
Savior of the World: 10 – The Two Covenants
Study #10 The Bible describes two opposite methods of salvation. The first is based on man’s promise and his works while the second is based on God’s promise and His works. One is salvation by works of the law while the other is salvation by grace alone. These two opposite methods of salvation are labeled […]
Savior of the World: 9 – Walking in the Spirit
Study #9 Being a born-again Christian means you have become a new creation in Christ. Christianity is not a modification, or an improvement, or a purification of your old life.

Savior of the World: 7 – Why You Need To Be Baptized
Study #7 Because God has created mankind with a free will, He will not force His gift of salvation in Jesus Christ on anyone.

Savior of the World: 6 – What Must I Do To Be Saved?
Study #6 In our last five studies we not only realized how sinful we are and how impossible it is to save ourselves, but we also discovered that God’s love for us sinners is infinite and unconditional, which He demonstrated by the death of His Son on the cross. As a result, God has obtained […]
Savior of the World: 5 – The Cross of Christ
Study #5 In our last study we looked at the cross in the light of the supreme sacrifice Christ made in behalf of the fallen human race. In this study we are going to consider how and why it was necessary for the human race to be included in the death of Christ on His […]
Savior of the World: 4 – God’s Supreme Sacrifice For You
Study #4 At the very heart of the gospel message is Christ and Him crucified. It is Satan’s determined purpose to engulf this truth in darkness. In this he has had some measure of success. By convincing the Christian church to believe the lie that men possess an immortal soul, he has robbed the cross […]
