Growing up I knew all the Bible stories, but I never really realized how they all fit together. This course has given me the tools to be able to teach unbelievers and give them a knowledge of why they need to be saved.
This seminar really deepened my appreciation for the Bible, how intricately connected everything is. It helped me make really interesting connections between Old Testament customs and events with the life of Christ and His purpose here on earth. This is something I could see myself teaching others.
These are some of the comments from the students at the Word of Life Bible Institute on GoodSeed’s seminar on the Gospel that takes the students from Creation to Christ, explaining God’s simple plan of salvation. This is the fifth time I have helped teach this seminar at the Bible school.
We used the book, By This Name, which is the latest book created by GoodSeed. This book is for people who know little or nothing about the Bible and have a polytheistic, pantheistic or animistic background. This also makes it ideal for our post-modern, post-Christian society here in North America. It explains 1570 Bible verses in context, objectively teaching God’s most important message for mankind, the Gospel.
In our teaching we also use quite a number of visual aids to help illustrate biblical truths. Pictured here is the Ark of Covenant, part of the Tabernacle which is one of God’s great visual aides for mankind. Fifty chapters of the Bible are dedicated to describing the Tabernacle, yet so few Christians understand its significance.
Teaching on why God gave man the Ten Commandments.
This seminar explained the gospel so clearly and showed the deeper meanings of the stories in the Bible and how everything points to Christ. I also really appreciated the visual aids because I am such a visual learner and it makes theological points so clear.
It has given me many good ideas on how to share the Gospel with others.
This book wowed me! Looking through the Old Testament and discovering so many connections with the Gospel Message was an eye opening experience.
I finally know the connection between the Old Testament sacrifices and Christ’s… That God cared enough to plan all that for me is mind blowing.. I’m excited to reach people I couldn’t before now that I understand so clearly what happened.
This book has been beneficial as it has brought the Bible to life. It has made the message so much clearer to me. It has made me want to read the Bible more and more.
This study has been amazing. The Bible and the central message all flow together to point us to the life of Jesus and the sacrifice He made on the cross for our sins. God is truly great and is deserving of all praise and thanksgiving.
Growing up, going to church and listening to my parents, I heard all these stories time and time again to the point that I had become “immune” to them. Now, thanks to this study, I’ve got a clear time line in my mind, I see how all the stories are linked together, and I’ve seen it all from a new and exciting perspective. It has all come to life in my mind, no longer bland and boring. May God be praised for what He did and is still doing through GoodSeed.
It is exciting to teach about the Gospel. It is also exciting to see people respond and get excited about God and what He has done for us.
