This is a series of seven Bible lessons for you to study on your own, with a counselor, or in a group. The study is for anyone who wants to study the Bible.
The lessons are based on the Gospel of John, so you will either need a copy of the Gospel of John, a New Testament or a Bible before you begin the lessons.
The lessons are simply questions with the answers coming directly from the Bible. Do not accept any answer that you do not find in the Bible verses.
In a group study each person will need a copy of the lessons, a Gospel of John or New Testament and a pen. One group member may read question no. 1 aloud as each person follows along in his own copy. At the end of the question is the scripture reference showing where the answer can be found in the Gospel of John.
Another person may read the Bible verse aloud as the others read along silently.
The group will decide on the answer, remembering that the answer must come directly from scripture verses.
This procedure will be followed until the lesson is completed. Give everyone in the group opportunity to participate in the reading and in giving answers.
It is better to minimize discussion and let the lesson flow smoothly without interruption. At the conclusion of each lesson the subject studied may be discussed. It should always be remembered that the Bible, not human opinion or philosophy, is the final authority...
