Testimony
My eyes are opened to know the intro of the bible,clues, historical things in the kingdom of God and I appreciate you God bless u
Analyse and Apply the Bible
What a great experience to learn how to look at the Bible from an Historical and cultural context,have also learnt that the Writers of the Bible did so with their context in mind and that is the Vintage point from which i should look at Scripture to understand the text.I now understand how to look at Biblical text from the distance of time,the culture of the time and how it applied specifically to them then and now and also the original audience to whom it was sent.
Weldone!
I have managed to finish the course the quiz is quite interesting and has help me enhance my career in understanding christianity to the fullest.

Our place in Gods narrative
My course instructors are so spirit filled with knowledge. This remains encouraging for further studies . Christ is in my walk with axx.Amen
Excellent All was very good
Excellent presentation
Church history part 2
It was so empowering just to know power accumulation in those days led to major corruption. The things people were doing in private were now done publicly eg murder, sex and people became greedy. People rejected the way of Christ. Forgiveness was based on contributions people made in church. Salvation is by faith in Christ alone. What a great awakening in the 1730 when the God’s spirit began. Wesley saw the need for methodical process for people to grow in faith. Massive expansion of missinary activities realised in the 19th century.

I loved this so much
I feel closer to Christ than ever before after taking this course.
Nuggets Galore
Great takeaway nuggets throughout the course. I gave my heart to the Lord when I stumbled across Christian radio one evening in NZ at 27yrs old and was blessed to be lead by Holy Spirit to an AOG church with a Senior Pastor who was an amazing teacher – so very much of what I heard was throughout the course was a refresher of what I been taught all those years ago.
Well structured and to the point.
The Certificate of the Bible was well worth it. The presenters were brilliant, their presentation style was very engaging and facilitates what the course sets out to do, encourages you to go deeper and refreshing your desire to expand your study of the Word. I would highly recommend taking the opportunity this course offers!
