The Instant Bible Study (just add Living Water)
- Auratus // November 7, 2009
Acts 1:23-26 (NRSV) - So they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also known as Justus, and Matthias... then they prayed and said, “Lord, you know everyone’s heart. Show us which one of these two You have chosen to take the place in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas turned aside to go to his own place.” And they cast lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was added to the eleven apostles.
So it is with the Instant Bible Study: it is directed by the Holy Spirit in terms of which Scriptures are drawn by lot for discussion. Enjoy and learn.
This simple “Instant Bible Study By Lots” booklet is not intended to replace the Bible! This is intended to serve as a simple way for newly formed house churches to have Bible discussions and Christian fellowship when there is not a Bible Study teacher available to prepare and teach formal Bible Study lessons. This “Instant Bible Study” booklet has many Bible references mentioned after most of the key Bible quotations. These references should also be studied. Spend time in the Bible daily for the rest of your life! You will be blessed daily!
