Impactful
how can I forget my take away lesson of Acts “God is personally involve in the building of the church and in the salvation of mankind”.
Coupled with all the historical studies, themes, authorship, literary issues, the lessons and much more, what I learned from Acts which is amazing is to rely on the Holy Spirit who is personally involve in building the Church.

Introduction to The Biblical Narrative
One of the greatest strengths of studying the Word of God is its ability to speak across generations. The principles found within scripture remain relevant, offering wisdom for contemporary issues. The various translations available also make the Bible accessible, catering to different reading preferences and comprehension levels.
However, one weakness can be the complexity of certain passages, which may lead to confusion or misinterpretation without proper guidance. Additionally, some may struggle with the historical and cultural contexts that can be challenging to grasp.
In conclusion, Studying the Word of God is a rewarding endeavor that deepens one’s faith and understanding. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking spiritual growth, comfort, or guidance. Whether a seasoned believer or new to scripture, there is always something new to discover. The Bible not only transforms our understanding of God but also our relationships with others and ourselves. I hope that more people will embark on this journey, finding the profound truths that the Word of God offers.
AN ANALYSIS OF THE READ BIBLE TEXT AND APPLICATION
The Bible read text interpretation by a community of believers should be treated as a whole text and not an isolation.The chosenscriptural text should target the audience explicitly and exhaustedly as a message and address the underlaying gospel issues to counsel,warn,redeem and grace the text preservation within historical, literary,social or geopolitical and cross cultural community of believers.Too,text if clauses,verbs used,adjectives,sounds as of slang words(Woop in Australia)should be considered their former or presently intended meaning to the audience.Moreover,complicated texts as 1Kings 18, Deuteronomy select chapter like 22,should be identified of the principle within and perhaps be summarised with a clearer and a short text expression for increased audience to target group leading to understanding.Still,expressions can take or loose a particularly intended meaning to the seen or foreseen audience formerly existing, currently or living in God’s believe in that future of their faith life.Ie:1Timothy 6:10,”Money is the root form of all evils,”may not be true to all locations or groups applications for there are various portions of evils caused and not effected by money yet they are evils,to exemplify:prostitution,drugs and substance abuse,human ignorance to lead procrastination of activities,”Pastor,Jenii saying that she will preach when she wants…”
Eventually and ideally,let the studied text be united as a reading,evaluative and an applied communicate writing to the targeted audience while importing and exporting the best meaning of the scriptural select write up.Thank you.

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!

Called for a Mission Experience
Early this year l was elected as Deaconate Chairman of our church and consequently became Church Administrator.
And two months later the Pastor left the church in order to pursue other works.
This left me with a responsibility to shepherd the church. This was to be done with my very basic training/knowledge on Biblical Interpretations, church governance and church growth and development.
Now with the way God does things, he introduced me to this training by AXX and particularly the unit on CROSSING CULTURES which has helped me redefine God’s Call upon my life.
This unit has also served as an utmost reminder that God wants to use me to be among the people that are going to reach out to the unreached people groups.
This will now be easy because God has taught me through this unit on how to go about and relate with people from different cultures.
So help me God.
Short term mission trips
I have learnt a lot at axx college and in this topic called crossing cultures . I learnt about
(1)How to go as a servant
(2)How to act as a team
(3)How to go as a learner

Biblical narrative
The lectures on biblical narrative are very enlightening. They help one to understand the fusion between historical and cultural contexts, and literary contexts of the various biblical writings from creation and how these affect our understanding of the Bible and its application in our contemporary context.
Good teaching
I love the delivery of content that simplifies even the add concepts.
The summary of is very enriching.
YAHWEH CROWNED KING OF REDEMPTION
The Bible has to faithfully be reviewed as one spiritually attributed life breathing story.Suddenly Adamic life is bestowed at the Eden of grace,it falls to sin that YHWH judges as death.This truth is exposed in Genesis 3 but in Genesis 4:25-26, Adam’s Seth sirs Enosh who obeys to build the Yahweh’s Church(ekklesia) and the God’s redemption visits that generation.However,there are ups and downs as narrated of former prophets to the latter prophets who are Joshua,Samuel,judges,Kings and Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and the twelve respectively.Too,the israelites life takes curve from conquest to exile until the crescendo of Yahweh believed King redeems them through His sent messengers even of apostles as of good news turning points by mystery even to calling once gentiles like Saul to one gospel faith and baptism of chains of preaching grace of repentance to all men.(Matthew 28:19,Acts 9:1-13).
Truly,Christ is living amongst us even now saying I came to those who never sought me(Isaiah 65:1-2) and here He brings life to those willing to obey His will of truth of worship and qualify to eat the best from the land.(Isaiah 1:19,John 4:23).
Therefore,hear only Jesus word voice as the holy spirit presented to us in Matthew 3:17 and you will be planted in the whole land of Israel by Lord’s eternal deliverance never to be uprooted again from David’s Heavenly Ordained and Godly kingdom where Messiah the beloved chose to appear as mercy and love that endures forever amen.
(Amos 9:15, Jeremiah 32:39-40,Psalm 118:29.
