Description
The study this quarter explores the twofold nature of faith as belief and action. Selections from Acts show various examples of proclaiming faith in Christ. In the Book of Daniel we see faith in action as sincere, obedient, bold, and strong. The lessons from several epistles show how our actions both as individuals and as communities demonstrate our faith in Christ.
UNIT 1 • THE EARLY CHURCH PROCLAIMS FAITH IN CHRIST: The five-lessons reveal what the early leaders proclaimed about living our faith in Christ. The sessions in Acts report several examples of social welfare ministry and evangelism in spite of opposition. Ephesians teaches about faith that leads to unity in the body of Christ. The Christmas lesson gives an account of the Wise Men who faithfully searched for the newborn King of the Jews.
UNIT 2 • A LIVING FAITH IN GOD: The four lessons explore faith in action from the Book of Daniel. These lessons provide models for ways to actively engage in behaviors that demonstrate sincerity, obedience, boldness, and strength of faith.
UNIT 3 • SELF-CONTROLLED, UPRIGHT, AND GODLY FAITH: The four lessons that look at passages from Acts, James, and 1 Timothy provide specific examples of faith as both belief and action. James teaches that faith without works is dead. The lesson from 1 Timothy offers instructions about leading others in a life of faith.
