  1. WELCOME TO THE • CHURCH of CHRIST

  2. BIBLE STUDY • Introduction: The Bible continues to be the world’s best selling book? In countries where the sale of Bibles is banned, it is the most sought after book. Yet, in America, where Bibles are readily available and where most everyone can read, the Bible may be the most neglected book of all. People from time to time will read a page here and a page there and then declare that the Bible is just too hard to understand. We would not think of approaching a book of history, mathematics or science in such a way. We all realize that our understanding of such matters depends upon our starting at the beginning and progressing page by page. The primary reason there is so much confusion regarding what the Bible is believed to teach is because of the lack of actual Bible study. Some just randomly open a page in the Bible and read a verse, making their own arbitrary application. Others carelessly and without any sound discipline, “read” the scriptures (no study) with no rhyme or reason.

The Bible covers three different dispensations with three different laws: • (1) The Patriarchal - for all non-Jews from Adam till the death of Jesus • (2) The Mosaic - for all Jews from Moses till the death of Jesus. • (3) The Law of Christ - for all mankind from the death of Jesus till He comes again. • C.
