Clarifying
This course was clarifying and extremely helpful to understand the Bible more accurately in accordance with the first of the Church. Also made me aware of some deliberate fudges. Thank you all and thank you Brother David Bercot for the extensive work you do! God Bless!
Had no idea there was this much material (no pun intended...)
I had no idea there was this much teaching available on the head covering. As the only woman in my church who covers, I fell more confident now that I am following the Lord’s direction in this matter.
History of the Early Church condensed!
David Bercot shares his extensive knowledge of the early church in a condensed form that is helpful and easy to follow along.
Connecting dots
There are many things I have been confused about. When reading prophecy with a false presumption already in your head, it can be entirely confusing. Things just don’t fit right but you can’t put your finger on it. Often when reading these scriptures of prophecy, in my head I thinking I guess what happened is a foreshadowing of what is coming on Israel in the end, with the man of lawlessness. This course actually helped me understand things much better. I’m sure people that believe they got it all figured out charismatically would not take these things in very well. But I think this was good for me to learn because I was seeing the holes but no one could clarify things to me. Thank you brother David Bercot, excellent teaching!
Great Course!!
A very thought provoking course! Definitely recommend taking it.
Very helpful
This course opened my eyes to some things that I had never considered before regarding the head covering.
review
Helpful in many ways. I was previously confused about John 6 (was previously convinced by Augustine to use a deterministic reading) but after this course I restudied it and saw the true context and got that rock out of my shoe completely! Hallelujah!
Challenging lessons from history.
We can gain valuable lessons from those who have gone before us.
Great introductory course
After going through this course I have to say that this is a great intro to the historic Faith. Personally the first module where David Bercot discuss about critical thinking skill was the most helpful because a) I was already familiar with many of the topic that David Bercot discuss throughout the course) I always look for new way to improve my critical thinking skills
Shadows of Christ (Mini Course)
The series focuses on prophecies about the resurrection of Jesus. My hope is that this series of lessons will strengthen the faith of Christians and open their eyes to the importance of the Old Testament. I also hope that these lessons will be useful in helping unbelievers come to faith in Jesus Christ, based on the evidence of the fulfilled prophecies that were written hundreds of years before the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem.
What the Early Christians Believed about Infant Baptism and Believers Baptism
The series focuses on prophecies about the resurrection of Jesus. My hope is that this series of lessons will strengthen the faith of Christians and open their eyes to the importance of the Old Testament. I also hope that these lessons will be useful in helping unbelievers come to faith in Jesus Christ, based on the evidence of the fulfilled prophecies that were written hundreds of years before the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem.
Expository Teaching Using Early Christian Insights
A church is only as strong as its doctrine. Those who aspire to be teachers, whether for a church office, leadership position on a missionary team, small group, or family devotions, accept a weighty responsibility. Like any important skill, the ability to teach effectively and accurately must be developed. This course draws upon the Septuagint and early Christian sources to offer practical advice for Bible fanatics who want to communicate the truths of God's word (and especially Old Testament connections to Christ). In the last three modules of the course, Chuck Pike will demonstrate how he would teach through three challenging Bible passages.
Ancient view of the Gospel According to Matthew
Bring the Scriptures to life — not by garbing the people of the first century in twenty-first-century clothes — but by clothing them in ancient garments.
Resurrection Prophecies
The series focuses on prophecies about the resurrection of Jesus. My hope is that this series of lessons will strengthen the faith of Christians and open their eyes to the importance of the Old Testament. I also hope that these lessons will be useful in helping unbelievers come to faith in Jesus Christ, based on the evidence of the fulfilled prophecies that were written hundreds of years before the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem.
The Holy Spirit
If you have more confusion than clarity concerning the Holy Spirit, you're not alone. Some groups have treated the Spirit as a license for casting off scriptural authority. Others have reacted by minimizing His role. The result is that teaching about the third person of the Trinity often leaves much to be desired. But Jesus did not intend for His followers to linger in confusion; rather, he wanted them to realize the Spirit's power in their lives. We hope that this course will begin to clarify the Holy Spirit for you: what Jesus taught the disciples about it, how the early Christians thought about it, and how the Holy Spirit is alive today.
Christians & Politics: A Challenge From History
Join Dean Taylor for this three-part series as he looks at the landscape of Christian involvement in politics. Dean takes a historical approach to see what happens every time Christians get involved in the political arena. By diagnosing pervasive Constantinism found throughout history he will challenge you to rethink how the Church should engage the culture today.
Radical Reformation History
Anabaptist history is still quite relevant today, as many of the questions that shaped the Anabaptist movement during and after its inception persist in modern churches.
Prove It: Old Testament Proofs That Jesus is the Messiah
Despite the explosion of Christianity throughout the world during the first few centuries after Christ, few Christians today present and defend the story of Jesus using the tactics of the earliest evangelists. In this 5-part series, Chuck Pike demonstrates the time-tested relevance of scriptural proofs for the gospel.
