Four reasons why you should take the course...

Make your Bible study more productive with less time.

If you claim to believe in God, you should understand His message yourself

Learn and fine tune skills which will allow you to read the Bible with a better understanding than before. Many people desire to learn, but early difficulties discourage and hinder progress.

Take advantage of an opportunity to break free from the television. Enjoy time with the family, a partner or friend learning about the Bible at your own pace.

We Promise that...

You will never be asked for money, or to make donations of any kind (and we mean never!).

No one will ever call you on the telephone (unless you ask) or in person. You have no obligation. No one will attempt to “convert”, “save” or pressure you.

Questions others have asked...

Q. Why are you doing this?

A. Our faith and belief in God makes us want to share His message and Truth. We believe the Bible is inspired by God, and what it teaches is right and good in directing our lives and families. In Christ’s day, the apostles spread the gospel message and the commandments of God. We, too, feel compelled to make known to all who would like to hear, the wonderful plan God has for the Earth. Our aim is to encourage you to discover what the Bible says for yourself.

Q. Who pays for this course?

A. All the expenses are being absorbed by the Christadelphians. The course and the materials provided to you are free.

Q. Will I be asked to be “saved” or “join” the Christadelphians at the end of the course?

A. No! You will not be pressured during or at the completion of the course. Our hope is that the course will encourage you to draw your own conclusions about God and his plan. The purpose of the course is to equip you with the necessary tools to make your own decisions about what you have learned from God’s Word.
