Bible Discussion Stonehouse

At Glasgow Church of Christ, we believe that we are all called to share the good news with others. It is the mission which we have been called to; and part of our purpose and God’s plan for our lives. As we all originate from very different backgrounds and have been influenced in numerous ways, all of us need to study the Bible for ourselves and make up our own mind relating to the calling from God’s word; the calling to salvation and change through his word and holy spirit.

Our study series has been developed for those in Stonehouse seeking answers in the Bible, helping guide you to discover what you are looking for. These studies are just a guide; we will take into account the requirements of those we are trying to help in Stonehouse based on their religious and social backgrounds. Although we do not hold to the concept that “one size fits all,” we do believe it is essential to understand the essence of what it means to be a genuine disciple and follower of Jesus and how we may apply it to our every day lives in Stonehouse. As it is centred on what pleases God instead of self, studying the Bible will offer you a different point of view on your own life and the lives of others.

We advise you to buy a Bible if you don’t currently have one! There are a terrific variety on the market; a study bible supplies you comprehensive commentary, with insights from Bible scholars that may help you tighten your grasp 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 provide bible study materials and a variety of different subjects.

In our family groups we have different bible studies, and use various bible study techniques in meeting the requirements of the congregation. Due to the fact that our requirements vary depending upon where we are in life, we conduct bible studies especially developed for married couples, single people, men, and women. We welcome you to contact us to get more information about the Bible, what we believe, and how we can help you have more in depth study on a topic in the bible.

Discover How to Read & Study The Bible in Stonehouse

We believe that the Bible should be the ultimate authority in our lives. After all, it is the Word of God written for us. God desires all of us to be saved and has called us through his Gospel and convicts us through his Spirit of our sin, righteousness and judgement. A person’s life is influenced by numerous variables, but we believe the ultimate freedom is found in the eternal word of God.

We urge 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 intimidating when you are doing so with others at the very same phase of the journey or have been on a comparable journey in the past. You might even feel you don’t have any faith at all, but the Bible will teach you even that. So start digging by studying the Bible with us.

Jot down any questions you have so we may discuss them and seek the truth in scriptural verses. We might not have all the answers, but we can show you where to start looking for them in the Bible! We can offer recommendations on how to study effectively, which biblical books to start with, how to check out and understand a particular passage of scripture, in addition to tips for topical, character, and book studies. Tools are even available to help the layperson to understand the initial Greek.

Join A Bible Discussion Group in the Stonehouse Area

We frequently get together in smaller groups to support, uplift, educate, empower, and lead one another. We also hold Bible conversations or life conversations in these groups, which are modelled after the discussion groups Paul developed in Ephesus (Acts 19:9 -10). These talks are engaging and a wonderful venue for discussing God’s Word and how each guest can apply it in their individual lives.

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 varied and as they are broad conversations about life, they may consist of things like communication, conflict resolution, what makes you happy, hope, traditions, and so on. As we have several groups in Stonehouse, do get in contact to discover your regional discussion group.

Find out about 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. We have developed a bible study specifically on Jesus to assist you construct your own conviction and respect for the life of Jesus and get insight into his sovereignty and significance. This study will help you understand who Jesus was and how he lived.

We believe that Jesus came to make the Father known and his heart, life and purpose are possibly 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.

Discover How To Become A Christian In Stonehouse

Being a Christian today can seem a bit complicated; much more complicated is discovering how to become one. 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 as proved by the Scriptures, and as disciples study the Bible, the Holy Spirit convicts us concerning 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, nevertheless, and these terms are revealed most plainly in the Holy Bible.

As disciples, our mission is to spread out the good news. After all, why wouldn’t you if you know it to be the truth! According to 1 Peter 3:15, we should constantly be ready to response to anybody for the hope that we have in Him. As a result, we have established “Guard the Gospel,” a Bible study series of topical studies supplied to help the student in their own discovery of the Word. We hope you find these resources useful in your personal faith journey as you study God’s word and build your own beliefs and convictions.

The topics we cover are:

Seeking God – Through prayer and bible verse study, develop a seeker’s heart to discover how to pursue a relationship with God.

Jesus – who is He, what life did He live, why did He come? How is it pertinent to me today?

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

Discipleship – What a Christian is from the Bible, and how the only appropriate reaction to Jesus’ death on our behalf should be to follow God through following His Son. Anything less cheapens the sacrifice He made for us.

Sin – Understanding how God sees us; separated from him because of our sin. Also understanding sin’s consequences. Just if we genuinely view and repent of sin, can we receive grace.

The Cross – The gift of grace and the rate of grace. Our function 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 actually means as derived from Greek “metanoia”, meaning modification in state of mind; how to welcome it and see it as one of the most positive words in the bible.

Baptism – How baptism establishes the link in between Christ’s sacrifice and forgiveness of our sins. We are forgiven by the sacrifice of Christ, but this happens at the point of baptism. Baptism is the participation in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus.

The Church – God’s plan for his church, how we engage with one another as his new holy community. It has to do with becoming his family, being supported by a group of disciples who share our devotion to him, accepting duty for one another, and helping one another in keeping a close relationship with God because we are a spiritual, not a physical, temple for him.

The Holy Spirit – Sustained by the Holy Spirit after baptism, He will help us cling to our confession right to the end.

This list is not exhaustive, these are just a few of the studies we can provide. We can also offer thorough bible study on any particular topics you might be interested in finding out more about. There might be a particular word or some key verses or other portions of the Bible you ‘d like to discuss 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.
