FROM THE PASTOR’S HEART:                                             

 My dear Friend, 

                You have made the most important decision of your life!  You have received the most wonderful Person – the Lord Jesus Christ!  By trusting Him as your Savior you have become a Christian in the truest sense of the word.

                 I rejoice with you in your salvation, and want you to know that there are many people praying for you.  They are those people who at a given time in their lives have also received Christ into their hearts.  They are your brothers and sisters in Christ, all belonging to the Family of God.

                 The Bible teaches that becoming a Christian is the beginning of your new life in Christ.  In order to help you be the kind of Christian God wants you to be, I have made available to you these Bible lessons.  By personally studying the Bible, which is the Word of God, together with the prayer and encouragement of other Christians, you will grow and experience the abundant life Jesus promised.

                 It is my prayer that you will commit yourself to complete this program.  In order to help you accomplish this, you will be paired with another person who will assist you on a weekly basis.  You need to select a time in a day (about 30 minutes) to read through the materials and answer the questionnaires.  Be sure to show or turn in the worksheets every time you finish a chapter.  You can also use this time to have your quiet time with God in prayer and meditation.  Don’t forget to memorize the assigned verses.

                 Much of what you will study in these lessons was used of the Lord to teach me when I was a new Christian.  I know from personal experience that if you are willing to follow and practice what is taught in this program, you will experience the wonderful life of peace, joy and spiritual satisfaction.  Enjoy and God Bless you!

  

All for God’s glory,

 Pastor Hernes Abante

POINTS TO REMEMBER BEFORE YOU BEGIN STUDYING THESE LESSONS:

  •   Find a quiet place; away from noise and distractions, so that you may be able to think and concentrate on the lessons.

  • Pray – before you commence the lesson, ask the Holy Spirit  to help you understand His Word.

  • Never allow Satan to hinder you from completing the course.  Aim to finish each entire lesson.

  • By faith, believe that you will grow spiritually as you study this material.

  • When you learn a new truth, immediately put it into practice.  This is wisdom.                        

  • Write down any questions you may have and be sure to ask your “discipler” or the pastor for answers or directions.

  • Remember – the Bible has all the answer.  It is the final authority of our faith and practice.
