The Book of John
The overall message of the Gospel is found in John 20:31: "Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God." The book, therefore, centers on the person and work of Christ and salvation in Him. John provides the record of how people responded to Jesus Christ and the salvation that He offered. This study will focus on 1) Jesus as the Word, the Messiah, and the Son of God; 2) who brings the gift of salvation to mankind, 3) who either accept or reject the offer.
The History of Christianity
This study begins with Jesus and the Apostles and journeys through the Catholic Age of Christianity, the Age of Christian Roman Empire, the Age of Christian Middle Ages, the Age of Reformation, the Age of Reason & Revival, the Age of Progress and to the current Age of Ideologies. It will look at the people - their motivations, the issues they grapple with, the decisions they make, and the result is that the study moves like a dramatic drama story and yet there is no fiction here.
The Study of Moses (Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy)
Exodus is the book of redemption. It records the deliverance of Israel from Egypt and presents the basic historical facts about the origins of the Hebrew nation and its religious ceremonies. These accounts are pictures of Christ and the redemption He purchased at the cross. Exodus also records the giving of the Law. It would be impossible to understand much NT doctrine apart from an understanding of the events and symbols in Exodus.

James, Isaiah, & Romans & Matthew
