Glasgow Church of Christ believe we are called to share the good news with others. This is our mission, our calling, and the purpose and strategy that God has for our lives.. As we all originate from very different backgrounds and have been influenced in different ways, all of us need to study the Bible for ourselves and make up our own mind regarding the calling from God’s word; the calling to salvation and improvement through his word and holy spirit.
We have developed a study series to help direct those of you in Baillieston who are searching for answers in the Bible. These studies are not exhaustive, but a guide, and we will consider the needs of whomever we are attempting to help in Baillieston depending on religious and personal background. We do not believe “one size fits all”, but we do believe there is worth in understanding the essential meaning of what it means to be a true disciple and follower of Jesus, and how we can apply that to our lives. With a concentrate on what pleases God rather than self, studying the Bible will change the way you see both your own life and the lives of others.
If you do not have a Bible we recommend you to get one! There are a huge variety on the market; a study bible provides you abundant commentary, with insights from Bible scholars, that can help you deepen your understanding of the Word and how to apply it. As an alternative, you could make use of a bible online or download a bible app, both of which offer bible study materials and a variety of different topics.

We believe that the Bible should be the ultimate authority in our lives. After all, it is the Word of God written for us. Through his Gospel, God calls us and wants us all to be saved and through his Spirit, he convicts us of our sin, righteousness, and judgement. The ultimate flexibility in an individual’s life is discovered in the eternal word of God, no matter the number of variables affect their life.
We encourage you to reach our to us if you have struggled to get into the Scriptures and the Bible as a whole in the past. Seeking the truth of the Bible can be a lot less daunting when you are doing so with others at the same phase of the journey or have been on a comparable journey in the past. The Bible can even teach faith to those who feel as though they currently do not have any faith at all. Start digging today and begin studying the bible with us.

We may not have all the solutions, but we can point you in the direction of the best starting point in the Bible! We can offer you suggestions on how to study successfully, suggest which biblical books to start with, discuss how to read and understand a specific verse, and suggest topics for topical studies, book studies, character studies, and other types of studies. Tools are even offered to help the layperson to understand the original Greek.

Join A Bible Discussion Group in the Baillieston Area
We meet in smaller sized groups regularly, to encourage, influence, train, equip and direct each other. We also hold Bible conversations or life conversations in these groups, which are modelled after the discussion groups Paul established in Ephesus (Acts 19:9 -10). These talks are engaging and a wonderful venue for discussing God’s Word and how each attendee can apply it in their personal lives.
The conversations help us grow closer to God as we share insights from scripture and our own individual relationship with God. The discussion topics are very varied and as it is general speak about life a topic could be about communication, conflict resolution, what makes you happy, hope, customs, etc. As we have numerous groups in Baillieston, do get in contact to discover your local discussion group.
Discover The Life Of Jesus Christ
We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He lived amongst us as a man, prior to being killed unjustly. Our mission is to help you construct your own conviction and respect for the life of Jesus and get insight into his sovereignty and importance. To help you obtain a firm grasp of who Jesus was and how he lived, we have produced a bible study exclusively on Jesus.
We believe that Jesus came to make the Father known and his heart, life and purpose are maybe best summarised from John 1:14 & John 1:17, which describe him as “full of grace and truth” and that he “brought grace and truth”. This is the essence of who he was and what he did.

Learn How To Become A Christian In Baillieston
Being a Christian today can seem a bit complicated; much more confusing is discovering how to become one. Many churches will extend an invitation to you without explaining what real discipleship entails or what God’s standards are. We believe that being a Christian is the same as being a disciple as proved by the Scriptures, and as disciples study the Bible, the Holy Spirit convicts us concerning righteousness (John 16:8). As Jesus came to save us from our sin, it just makes sense to become his disciple and follow him. Being a disciple means doing so on His terms, nevertheless, and these terms are expressed most clearly in the Holy Bible.
Baillieston Alpha Course Alternative
As disciples we are called to share the good news to others. After all, why wouldn’t you if you think it is the truth! 1 Peter 3:15 tells us to always be prepared to offer an answer to anyone for the hope we have in Him. We have therefore developed a Bible study series of topical studies provided to guide the student in their own discovery of the Word, which we call “Guard the Gospel. As you study God’s word and grow in your understanding of it, we pray that you will discover these resources beneficial in your own spiritual journey.
The topics we cover are:
Seeking God – Through prayer and bible verse study, establish a candidate’s heart to learn how to pursue a relationship with God.
Jesus – What type of life did He lead? Why was He here? How does it apply to me now?
The Word of God – How the Bible should be our ultimate source of assistance and moral guidance. The word study will assist you in demonstrating that the example in between the ancient and new testaments and the breath of God is accurate.
Discipleship – The Bible defines a Christian and demonstrates to that the only fitting response to Jesus’ dying on our behalf is to comply with God by following His Son. Anything less cheapens the offering He made on our behalf.
Sin – Understanding how God sees us; separated from him because of our sin. Also understanding sin’s repercussions. We will just get grace if we genuinely view and repent of sin.
The Cross – The present of grace and the price of grace. Our role in Jesus’ death on the cross; and how the cross is what offers us hope once we understand our need for grace.
Repentance – What scriptural repentance truly means as originated from Greek “metanoia”, indicating change in state of mind; how to accept it and see it as one of the most positive words in the bible.
Baptism – How the connection between Christ’s death and the redemption of our sins is developed by baptism. Christ’s death on the cross results in our forgiveness, but this happens at the point of baptism. Participating in Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection through baptism.
The Church – God’s plan for his church, how we communicate with one another as his new holy community. It is about being his family, being participated in by a team of like-minded disciples in our dedication for him, taking obligation for one another, helping each other stay near God as we are a spiritual temple for God, not a physical one.
The Holy Spirit – After baptism, the Holy Spirit will sustain us and help us remain true to our confession to the end.
These are just a few of the studies we can provide; the list is by no means total, and we can provide thorough bible study on any specific subjects you would be interested in finding out more about. There might be a specific word or some key verses or other portions of the Bible you ‘d like to talk about with us. Regardless, we wish to meet you and share the good news and follow the example of Jesus in his love, life and service for others.
