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 plan that God has for our lives.. As all of us come from very different backgrounds and have been influenced in numerous ways, we all 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 guide those of you in Dumbarton who are looking for answers in the Bible. These studies are not exhaustive, but a guide, and we will think about the requirements of whomever we are trying to help in Dumbarton depending on spiritual 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. Studying the Bible will provide you a different perspective on your own life and that of others, as it will be focused on what pleases God rather than self.

The Bible is the Word of God, written to guide and inform us on His will. We believe that it should be the ultimate authority in our lives and how we see God. Through his Gospel, God calls us and wants all of us to be saved and through his Spirit, he convicts us of our sin, righteousness, and judgement. The ultimate freedom in an individual’s life is discovered in the eternal word of God, no matter the number of variables affect their life.

We routinely get together in smaller sized groups for mutual support, motivation, direction, training, and assistance. In these groups, we also hold Bible or life conversations that are modelled after the discussion groups that Paul established in Ephesus (Acts 19:9 -10). These discussions are engaging and an outstanding setting for group dispute of God’s Word and its useful application.

The discussions help us grow closer to God as we share insights from scripture and our own personal relationship with God. The discussion subjects are rather diverse and as they are broad conversations about life, they may include things like communication, conflict resolution, what makes you happy, hope, customs, and so on. As we have several groups in Dumbarton, do get in contact to discover your regional discussion group.

Learn About The Life Of Jesus Christ

We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He lived among us as a man, prior to being killed unjustly. We have developed a bible study specifically on Jesus to assist you build your own conviction and respect for the life of Jesus and get insight into his sovereignty and significance. This study will help you comprehend who Jesus was and how he lived.

We hold that Jesus came to reveal the Father, and John 1:14 and John 1:17, which characterise him as “full of grace and truth” and that he “brought grace and truth,” are perhaps the best summaries of his heart, life, and mission. This is the essence of who he was and what he did.

Being a Christian in the modern day can be confusing, and working out how to turn into one is a lot more so. There are many churches that will welcome you in without teaching you what discipleship truly means and what God’s expectations are. We believe that being a Christian is the same as being a disciple, and that when disciples check out the Bible, the Holy Spirit convicts us worrying righteousness (John 16:8). Why would we not follow Jesus and become his disciple, if he came to save us from our sin? Being a disciple means doing so on His terms, however, and these terms are revealed most clearly in the Holy Bible.

As disciples, our mission is to spread the good news. After all, why wouldn’t you if you know it to be the truth! 1 Peter 3:15 tells us to always be prepared to provide an answer to anyone for the hope we have in Him. We have for that reason developed a Bible study series of topical studies provided to assist the student in their own discovery of the Word, which we call “Guard the Gospel. We hope you discover these resources useful in your personal faith journey as you study God’s word and build your own beliefs and convictions.

The subjects we cover are:

Seeking God – Discover how to pursue a relationship with God by developing a candidate’s heart, through prayer and bible verse study.

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 is the ultimate authority and standard for our lives. The Word study will help you establish that both the old testament and the new testament is tantamount to the breath of God.

Discipleship – What a Christian is according to the Bible, and how obeying God by following His Son is the only proper reaction to Jesus’ dying on our behalf. Anything less lessens the price He paid to save us.

Sin – Understanding how God sees us; separated from him because of our sin. Also understanding sin’s repercussions. We will just receive grace if we truly view and repent of sin.

The Cross – The present of grace and the cost of grace. Our role in Jesus’ death on the cross; and how the cross is what gives us hope once we understand our need for grace.

Repentance – What scriptural repentance really means as derived from Greek “metanoia”, suggesting change in mindset; how to welcome it and see it as one of the most positive words in the bible.

Baptism – How the connection in between Christ’s death and the redemption of our sins is established by baptism. Christ’s death on the cross leads to our forgiveness, but this takes place at the point of baptism. Participating in Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection by means of baptism.

The Church – God’s plan for his church, how we communicate with one another as his new holy community. Being his family is belonging of a group of disciples who share our commitment to him, accepting responsibility for one another, and supporting one another in maintaining a strong relationship with God. 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.

This list is not exhaustive, these are just a few of the studies we can provide. We can also provide thorough bible study on any particular topics you might be interested in learning more about. You could want to speak about a certain word, some essential verses, or other parts of the Bible 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.
