2 Bible Doctrine – What Do These Labels – “Arminianism” And “Calvinism” – Represent?
A Transcript Of The Video Study In our previous study, I sought to show you that every field of knowledge has been reduced to its own framework of teachings. With reference to the Bible, we often call its framework of teachings, Systematic Theology. However, there is more than one system of teachings derived from the Scriptures. The two most prominent frameworks are those of Arminianism and Calvinism. Now, what exactly do these labels represent? These labels represent two diametrically opposed systems of biblical theology. The name “Arminianism” is derived from the teachings of a Dutch Theologian who lived during the 16th century named Jacobus Arminius (1560-1609). The name “Calvinism” is derived from the teachings of a French Theologian who also lived during the 16th century…

2 Bible Reading – The Basic Divisions Of A Biblical Timeline
A Transcript Of The Video Study A timeline is “a graphic representation of the passage of time.” The far left end represents the beginning of time, and the far right end represents the everlasting continuum of time, for, while time is part of God’s creative works and therefore has a beginning, yet God has decreed that time should have no end. A timeline is one of the most helpful methods to view the entire course of history from a bird’s eye view. I should point out, this is a biblical timeline, not an Atheist timeline. A biblical timeline depicts history according to God’s revelation recorded in the Old and New Testament scriptures. Whereas an Atheist timeline depicts history according to the theory of the Big…

1 Bible Doctrine – What Is A Framework Of Doctrine
A Transcript Of The Video Study A Framework of Doctrine is to the Bible, what a skeleton is to the body. It is the structure which gives support and stability to the entire Bible. Just as a body without a skeleton would lose its shape and integrity, so the Bible without a skeleton loses its shape and integrity. You see, the Bible is not merely a book of words. It is a book of words which convey truth; which set forth a message. It is that truth; that message; which is the skeleton of the Bible. The Apostle Paul made reference to a framework of doctrine in Romans 6:17: “But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from…

1 Bible Reading – Logical Arrangement Of Bible Books
A Transcript Of The Video Study If you have a copy of the Scriptures available, I’d like for you to open the Bible to the table of contents. The Bible is a library of 66 separate books. These books are arranged under two main headings—The Old Testament and the New Testament. There are 39 books belonging to the Old Testament, and there are 27 books belonging to the New Testament. As a whole, the books belonging to the Old Testament record the history of God’s people prior to the incarnation of Christ. The books belonging to the New Testament record the history of God’s people after the incarnation of Christ. However, all of the books—Genesis to Revelation—sets forth the same message. That is what makes…
