Understanding the Bible
In summary is that in both old and new testament, the Bible talks about the new covenant where God will renew His relationship with the humanity by giving His only son(jesus) for sacrifice. In old and new testaments it talks about the new hope where by even though the humanity was suffering but steal believed that YHWH will come and save the remnants .I have mostly been encouraged that for me to please YHWH I must be a man of faith and good deeds(holiness) and also that after serving Him there is everlasting life where by we shall with YHWH in the new city(world) called Jerusalem and we shall rule together with Him in eternity. Thank you AXX ministry and teacher Matt may good Lord bless you richly. Shallom Shallom.

My testimonial
I know that application is best that knowing
Finding the real meaning in scripture.
I found Andrew to be a very dynamic lecturer who was very easy to listen to and understand. This module has helped me to realize the dangers of taking scripture out of context and applying it to areas where it was never intended to be. It will help me to dig deeper into scripture and really seek to understand the meaning, context and how it applies today. Ultimately it will make me a better preacher!
Knowledge is power
This course has enabled me to study the bible as a detective. As a pastor, I have learned that I need to understand the original audience of the bible and how it applies to us today.

Course Reviews
I am in God's plan
Very clear teaching and illustration of where I am in God’s ultimate plan.
It was very interesting and thought provoking 🙂
I thought this course was very thought-provoking. I especially liked the lesson about how we need to proclaim the good news in a different way rather than just washing it down. It really resonated with me.
Understanding God's plan
Knowing and understanding God’s plan from the very beginning of the book of Genesis and after the fall of man is so amazing. God by His divine and master plan makes the church and the individual that trusted Him to be partakers of His something big. I am so grateful as being in that circle and to go and proclaim God’s saving grace to all.
