Lifelight Classes

The goal of Lifelight is that through a regular program of in-depth personal and group study of Scripture more and more Christian adults may grow in their personal faith in Jesus Christ.  This class is a 9 week class that will begin on Thrusday, September 24 at 7:00 p.m. in Blanchard Hall.  This Lifelight class will be focused on the book of "Hebrews".  ...like pilgrims who need a word of encouragement; Hebrews encourages us to listen to the Word of God revealed in the Son of God, Jesus.   
 

Wednesday Evening Adult Bible Class

"Live by the Spirit" - These devotions look at eleven verses from the fifth chapter of Galatians.  Conservative scholarship estimates this letter was written near the middle of the first century A.D. Paul's target audience was believers living in Galatia, then a Roman province in central Asia Minor.  One item in particular prompting this communication was Paul's concern that Judaizers had crept into a number of these Galatian assemblies.  These Judaizers were claiming that certain traditional practices of the Old Testament - namely circumcision - were still necessary for the salvation of members of the New Testament church.
 
To those perpetrating this Gospel perversion, Paul did not mince his words:  "If anybody is preaching to you a Gospel other than what you accepted, let him be eternally condemned!"  (Galatians 1:9b)
