This is the leader's guide for this curriculum. The Basics of Christianity curriculum was developed for youth workers to use for camps, VBS, super summer, or disciple-nows. This curriculum was developed because sometimes we need to remind our youth of the basic things of Christianity to help them get on the right track or help encourage them in their growth.
You Mean to Say You Don’t Know the Meaning of * Monophysitism * Hypostatic Union * Infralapsarian * Traducianism * Chiliastic * Pneumatomachian Cheer up! You don’t have to have thousand-dollar vocabulary in order to grasp the priceless basics of Christianity. Christianity 101 bridges the gap between biblical scholarship and people who want to understand the Christian faith. This book presents eight basic doctrines of Christianity--The Bible, God, Christ, Holy Spirit, Human Beings, Redemption, The Church, and The Last Things--in clear, simple language that gives seasoned Christians a fresh understanding of the Bible and its teachings and puts new Christians on familiar terms with Christian doctrine. Gilbert Bilezikian does not shape his analysis of these doctrines in the worn-out, rationalistic categories of older systematic theologies, but in vibrant, dynamic language designed to communicate biblical truths to contemporary believers.
In eight discussion-oriented sessions that can be used in group settings or for personal devotions, you will learn who God is, who Jesus and the Holy spirit are, what sin is and how we are saved from it, what is the purpose of the church, what are the sacraments, where the Bible came from, why prayer is important, and more. Whether readers are new to church or have grown up in one, the easy-to-understand language makes this a perfect resource for everyone.
