  • According to II Timothy 2:15, the plan of these lessons is to:

  • I Peter 3:15 teaches us to :

    •  

     
    ETERNITY

     
  • Psalm 90:2: "Before the were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the and the , even from to , thou art God."

  • The Bible Gives us great information about the fact that one God exists.

    • True False

  • Isaiah 45:5-7 is a prophecy that was fulfilled in the life of Cyrus, King of Persia. This prophecy   teaches us that (See also Isaiah 44:28-45:4) :

  • John 1:1-3 teaches us that God the Father was the only One involved in creation.

    • True False

    • True False

  •   I Peter 1:18-20 teaches that "before the foundation of the world" Jesus was:

    •  

     
    PATRIARCHAL

     

  •   The first period of time on earth was the 

  •   The beginning of the Patriarchal Age (patriarch means "father"; see Hebrews 1:1,2) was

  •   Hebrews 11:1-3: "Now is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen, For by it the elders obtained a good report. Through we understand that the were framed by the of , so that things which are seen were not made of things which ." 

  •   Sin entered the human race early and often. God then began to reveal what He planned to do about it in Genesis 3:15: "And I will put (hostility) between thee and the , and between thy seed and her ; it shall thy head, and thou shalt bruise his ." This is the first prophecy in the Bible of the coming of Christ. 

  •   Sin then engulfed the human race, except for Noah and his family. The Bible says something wonderful about him in Genesis 6:22: "Thus did ; according to that God him, so did he." 

  •   The promise of God to Abram in Genesis 12:1-3 includes "all of the " 

    •  

     
    MOSAIC

  •   The Mosaic Age began in a very identifiable way at Mount (Exodus 20). 

  •   Romans 15:4 shows the value of the Old Testament today by saying that those scriptures are "for our , that we ought and of the scriptures might have hope." . 

  •   I Corinthians 10:11 shows the value of the Old Testament today by saying that those events were "for (examples; types): and they were written for our , upon whom the ends of the world are come." 

  •   II Timothy 3:14,15 shows the value of the Old Testament today by saying that those scriptures "are to make thee wise unto through faith which is in Christ Jesus."

  •   Luke 24:44 shows the value of the Old Testament today by saying that those scriptures contained all things that "must be , which were written in the of Moses, and in the , and in the , concerning ."

    •   II Peter 1:20,21 shows the value of the Old Testament today by saying that those scriptures were inspired of God. "Knowing this first, that no of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the of man: but holy men of God as they were by the ."

     

     
    CHRISTIAN

  •   But the Mosaic Age was not intended to last forever. Colossians 2:14 teaches that it was to the cross (see also Ephesians 2:14,15). 

  •   The Christian Age, which is the final period of time on earth, also had a very identifiable beginning. It began on the of in Acts 2. "

  •   Match the following.

    • Psalm 2 a. Those who were not his people would become His
    people 
    Isaiah 2 b. The Holy Spirit would be poured out in the last day
    Daniel 2 c. The Lord's house to be established in Jerusalem
    Hosea 2 d.  God would set His King on His holy hill of Zion
    Joel 2 e. Quoted in Hebrews 12 to show that we are under the
    new covenant
    Haggai 2 f. An image with four parts, and a kingdom that God
    would set up

  •   Items of identification for the church:    Match the following

    • beginning a.The faith, or New Testament; that which we are to believe
    creed b.John 17:20,21 (to be “one” as God and Jesus are)
    terms of entrance c.Pentecost; a Sunday
    names d.Philippians 1:1; Ephesians 4:11 (elders, deacons, teachers, preachers)
    worship e.The same for every person (Mark 16:16)
    unity f.Romans 16:16; Acts 11:26 (churches of Christ; Christians)
    organization g.John 4:24; Acts 2:42 (in spirit and in truth)
    mission h.Colossians 3:1-17 (things to "mortify", "put off", and "put on")
    morals i.Matthew 28:18-20 (go, teach, baptize)

     

     
    ETERNITY

  •   The Christian Age is the last period of time on earth. The second coming and the resurrection are sure to occur someday as Jesus taught in John 5:28,29: "The is coming, in the which that are in the shall hear his ."

  •   Eternity for us is coming. All of us will have an eternal habitation. Jesus taught that are on the way that leads to destruction and are on the way that leads to life (Matthew 7:13,14). 

  •   In John 12:48, Jesus said this about the judgment: "He that me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the ." (also read verses 49,50). 

  •   II Thessalonians 1:6-9 teaches that it is a thing with God to recompense to the disobedient. 

  •   On what basis are you getting ready for that day? Are you letting the Bible—which will judge you--be your guide so that the last day will be joyous for you? What will you receive on that day? Read Matthew 25:46: "And these shall go away into but the into ."

    Let us spend our time getting
    ready for eternity!

    Are you willing to step through
    time with Him?
