THE BIBLE INSTITUTE OF LOS ANGELES

Course Two The Life and Teachings of Our Lord

By R. A. TORREY, Dean of the Institute

This course presents a thorough study of the life and teachings of our Lord as recorded in the four Gospels. It con­ sists of 140 studies. These studies cover practically every verse in the four Gospels, though in many of the studies several accounts are included in a single study. Each lesson presents a passage from Scripture, with the parallel passages from the other Gospels. The passage is out­ lined in its natural divisions, and a series of questions demand­ ing thought and study is given upon each division. Then, at the close of the whole lesson, the teachings of the whole passage are classified; as, for example, "Teachings about Jesus Christ," "About the New Birth," etc. The error of errors has been to seek truth concerning our Lord Jesus Christ from men and thus many heresies built on false conceptions of His person and mission have been evolved. This course drives the student to the words and work of the Master Himself and hence is especially of value to the young Christian, furni shing him a firm Gospel foundation and put­ ting before him the great example of true service. The studies throw a light upon the whole Bible that it is important for every Chri stian to receive. At the end of each twenty lessons a series of questions on the whole section is sent to the student to be answered and returned. If these answers are satisfactory, the student is allowed to take up the next section. This method is followed until the entire 140 lessons (seven sections) are concluded. The course is an admirable one for use in advanced classes in Sunday Schools, and for adult classes, etc.
