Advent Bible Study

Join us for a four-week Advent Bible Study.  The study guide will be a deep dive into the Apostles' Creed.  We'll be using "The Apostles' Creed, Discovering Authentic Christianity in an Age of Counterfeits" by R. Alpert Mohler Jr.

We say it often on Sunday mornings.  We often do it from memory.  What does it really mean?  Scott Stamper will take the lead on this study.  Here is an quote from the author:

"I believe.  These two words are among the most explosive words any human can utter.  They open the door to eternal life and are the foundation of the Christian faith.  Belief stands as the very center of Christian faithfulness and is where Christianity begins for the Christian.  We enter the faith and find eternal life in Christ by responding to the truth with trust - that is, with belief.

But Christianity is not belief in belief.  It is belief in a propositional truth: that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and savior of sinners.  We do not believe in a Christ of our imagination but in the Christ of Scripture - the Christ believed in by every generation of true Christians.  Furthermore, beyond belief in Christ stands belief in everything Jesus taught his disciples.  Matthew recorded that Jesus instructed his disciples to teach others to observe all that he had commanded them (Matt. 28:18-20).  Therefore, there is no Christianity without belief, without teaching, and without obedience to Christ."

We do have books for this study.  The cost is $10.00, but this is a free will offering.  Please register by contacting Gail Baker (740-852-0462 or gail@londonfumc.org).
