LESSON 1.1

GOD’S WORD - Our Authority for Life and Ministry

The Bible is God's inspired Word and thankfully is without error. As such, the Bible is the final authority over humanity and the ultimate provision of God’s truth for humanity. As a result of the spiritual new birth (being “born again”), the believer’s life and ministry both demonstrate and bear witness to the power of God’s living Word. It is our joy and delight to come under the word of God and be led by it in all of life.
