Acts - Reviews
Amazing team spirit
How the 1st century church operated as one body and solved issues that could have torn the church apart but instead the church was unstoppable in its God given mission no matter the persecution from outside or troubles from within! A great inspiration to me was how God is on the lookout for his saints as a body and as individuals and how he keeps on saving no matter the situation!

Course Reviews
Humility before honour
Thank you very much! The course “Analyse & Apply” will definitely help me to understand the bible in a better way.
Great /Excellent
I really like the short videos it explains of different topics. The way been it is been presented is excellent.
Knowledge, Wisdom & Understanding
This Bible course has been very helpful to understand and learn how to analyse and apply God’s teachings in our daily lives as a student and a believer. The knowledge we generally gain by only just reading or studying the Bible in our own way will not take us where God intends us to be or will not know how we should live according to His purposes or fulfil His calling.
This course has been designed, programmed and delivered in a very easy method for students to learn in their own pace without any inconvenience or complexity, so that the student can learn and grow gradually applying the principles of the Bible and thereby follow the call of God.
Listening to the lectures, taking down notes/writing important points or facts, read and understand the questions and choose the correct answer and submitting them was very enthusiastic.
The more you get to learn and understand the word and delve into the deeper things of God gives you pace to grow more even in the spiritual sense and will help you to operate in a higher dimension.
I believe this was a great opportunity for me to follow this course and is a benefit to complete to the end.
Many thanks to Axx Bible College and the Teachers who shared their knowledge with us. May God Bless you all.

visual experience!
I loved how these videos where filmed, adding the visual picture of what we where learning about really helped me!
Fantastic!!
I thoroughly enjoyed ‘Ancient Israel Explored!’ It was so interesting and I didn’t want it to end! The visual of all the different locations really made the information presented come alive. I had many ‘ah ha’ moments. Hezekiah’s tunnel was exceptional! I found all the little details of the course so interesting that I couldn’t stop talking about it to my husband…I hope he didn’t get sick of me! 🙂
Just the little tidbits of information, such as the stone jars that were used when Jesus turned the water into wine. It was fascinating to learn that if they were pottery, made by man’s hands, they would be unclean…but being stone jars, thus made by God, they were pure. This course has really enlightened me and gave me such a thirst and hunger to learn more! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to learn about the ancient times and culture!

It has helped me understand the bible more and a greater understanding of context
Too deep too fast!
This being our first unit was way too deep too fast! So many of the words and concepts used are so completely foreign to normal language that it is such a huge jump to start with. Some of the words are explained and some are assumed.
The assignment questions are very hard to work out exactly what they want you to say. I have found this the most challenging part. Trying to decipher what it is asking. The majority of our discussions between our group are trying to work out what the questions are asking. Once we finally understand the questions, they are easy enough to answer but if they were reworded in a simpler way it would be much more helpful.
The questions are also very similar to each other and could be answered almost the same. I found myself repeating myself a lot.
Excellent

The goal of Biblical interpretation is to grasp the meaning of the text God has intended.We do not create meaning out of a text ,rather we seek to find the meaning that is already there.
I have gained quite a substantative knowledge in biblical Studies.Thank you so much Axx Bible College for the superb knowledge you have imparted in me.To my lecturers Pastor Grant and Matt you are awesome thank you for your deep analysis. I have been taught to never take the biblical writers out of context. Communication succeeds when the meaning received corresponds to the meaning sent. I have learned that in biblical interpretation the reader does not control the meaning,the author controls the meaning.We seek to discover the meaning that has been placed there by the author.Accurate interpretation of scripture is needed. Misinterpretation leads to misunderstanding. Misunderstanding leads to false doctrine. Correct interpretation is key.I look forward to teach others TRUE doctrine of Jesus Christ. It is important to study the Word of God ,meditate it,read it ,read it ,read it until the meaning comes .
The Insight Gained is Priceless
Sitting through these lectures, with a pen and notebook in hand, is like opening a new page of an interesting book. It keeps getting better with time and I’m glad that I’m already applying most of the knowledge gained from AXX BIBLE COLLEGE.
What I like most about these lessons is that rather than give you a fish, they teach you how to fish so to that you can be self-sufficient. The content itself is thought-provoking and enhances critical thinking which points one back to the Scriptures for answers.
I’m really and truly blessed.
God bless Axx.

Course Reviews
5-Star Review for Theology of Worship Course
Taking the Theology of Worship course with Tex has been an absolute delight! Tex is my favorite lecturer so far. He’s incredibly engaging and knows exactly how to capture my attention, often spicing up his teaching with songs. As a worshiper and someone who has been in the music industry, I found this session particularly enjoyable and enriching.
Through this course, I’ve learned that God wants me to serve humbly and not to be proud. Tex’s fun and insightful approach to teaching has made this experience unforgettable. Highly recommend this course to anyone passionate about worship and serving God!
