Theological study is good. Here is part of a prayer from Ephesians 1:17 “I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.” Paul prays that the crew in Ephesus would know God better. What a good prayer for each other!
This year I have been engaged in full-time study at Moore Theological College. I believe that through theological study I have been able to get to know Jesus better. This has happened through studying the scriptures and through greater insights into the faith of Christians throughout the last 2000 years of church history. If you are a dmdc reader – my prayer is for you that you would get to know Jesus better as you regularly gather around God’s word in your churches and bible study groups.
There are also many opportunities to dig deeper into the Bible than what you may normally do in your church. Moore College offers Full-time degree study, Evening course diploma study (Rowena has almost finished this – it is excellent), External correspondence certificate (I did many of these ‘PTC’ subjects as a young Christian = gold). Other colleges like SMBC offer similar programs + Part-time degree study. So… if you have the opportunity to do some theological study (full-time, part-time, evening lectures or external) do it!
Prayin’ you’d know Jesus better. (Click here if you don’t know Jesus at all!)
Hey, Dave,
I actually plan to start studying Dip. Biblical Studies (Evening course) from next year! I hope I can learn much in the course.
good stuff. i’m sure you will find it valuable.
which centre are you planning on attending?
Newtown Moore college seems to be most suitable for me. Easiest to get to after work.
