Church of God, New World Ministries

Mini Correspondence Course / Bible Study

The Church of God, New World Ministries believes the word of God is the Foundation of Knowledge. Paul was inspired to write in Eph. 4:4-6, “There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, One faith, One baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.”

Contrary to what most believe; there are not many roads that lead to salvation—but, only one. There is only One Faith, Only One set of Doctrinal Beliefs inspired by God.

It is the Church of God, New World Ministries’ goal to lead you through these Doctrinal Beliefs to help you lay a firm FOUNDATION for your Spiritual Growth and Development based upon the Word of God.

Instructions

The format for this Mini-Course is similar to the Ambassador College Correspondence Course which many of the Churches of God have used as a pattern for their Correspondence Courses.

Look up and carefully read in your Bible the scripture references given in answer to the questions asked. Comments following the questions elaborate on the scriptures just read. That is all there is to it! (These studies are based on the King James Version of the \ Bible, unless otherwise stated.)

The most fundamental need facing mankind is to recognize the existence of God and to understand His Character, Personality and His Master Plan. Mankind will continue to flounder in a sea of tradition, myths, half-truths, and lies without the TRUE KNOWLEDGE of the purpose of life, and,until he gains an accurate and clear picture of his Creator.

To lay the proper FOUNDATION of KNOWLELDGE you must come to know Who and What God is. God is the eternal, omnipresent, all-powerful, supreme creator and sustainer of the entire universe. God is ONE, composed of spirit and comprising a family revealed as presently consisting of God the Father and Jesus Christ the Son. God is a loving, kind, merciful, being who wants to share His magnificent existence by reproducing Himself through man. To learn the TRUTH about GOD – Read On!

God’s Composition:

Let’s begin the study by determining God’s composition. We know that man is formed from the dust of the ground. (Gen. 2:7). Therefore, man is composed of flesh and blood. But, God is not a man.

  1. What is God composed of? (John 4:24.) God is SPIRIT!

  2. We know that beings composed of spirit, including angels, are on a higher level of existence than we humans are. (Heb. 1:7)

  3. God has made angels spirits. But, are they on the same level as God? (Heb. 1:4-6)

    Comment: Angels were made lower than God. They were created by God. There is none higher than God. (Deut. 4:35); (Isaiah 45:5); (Rev. 1:11).
  4. We have proven that God is Spirit. We have also proven that God is the ONLY God, and above all else. What else does the Bible say about God? (Deut. 33:27),(Deut. 32:39-40)
    Comment: The Bible says God is Spirit, the Only God, Eternal, and Lives Forever.
  5. What does God look like? (John 1:18.)
    Comment: Since no man has seen God how can we know what he looks like? (Last part of Verse 18). The Son has declared him. We can get an idea of what God looks like from the Son.
    One way Jesus declared the Father was through Jesus’ presence on earth as a visible person. What did Jesus say to Philip? (John 14:8-9).

  6. What does Jesus look like in a glorified form? (Rev. 1:13-16); (Heb. 1:3). Since Jesus is the express image of His Father, the Father in His glorified state must look like Jesus as described in Rev. 1:13-16.

Is God A Trinity?

Christ constantly spoke of the Father during His earthly ministry. He said the Father was greater than He. He stated that what He taught He received from the Father. What most professing Christians do not know is that God is NOT a TRINITY, but actually is a FAMILY! This concept is incomprehensible to Trinitarians. But, ask some one to explain the concept of the TRINITY. They say it is a mystery. The concept of three-in-one is unexplainable from the pages of the Bible. But, does the Bible say God is a Family? Can you prove it? Let’s see…
