Basic Doctrines: Eternal Judgment One of God's roles is as Judge, and His judgments are eternally binding. But what does this mean? Who is judged? How? When? For what?

Basic Doctrines: Faith Toward God What is faith? Is it something we work up or does God give it to us? Do we have the faith to be saved? Do we really trust God?

Basic Doctrines: Going On to Perfection Most of our Christian lives will be spent going on to perfection. But what is it? How do we do it? This Bible Study will help explain this broad, yet vital subject.

Basic Doctrines: Satan's Origin and Destiny Most cultures on the earth have some kind of devil figure in their belief system. The Bible clearly speaks of Satan the Devil. Where did he come from? What is his fate?

Basic Doctrines: The Third Resurrection The doctrine of resurrections is one of paramount importance for the Christian. The third resurrection, however, is one that most of this world's Christianity ignores--but it is the one that shows God's ultimate justice and how He will deal with incorrigibly evil people in godly love.

Basic Doctrines: Water Baptism Baptism is one of the initial acts that a new Christian must experience during his new life in Christ. This fundamental doctrine places him in the right frame of mind for continuing in God's way.

Behoort u te worden gedoopt? De apostel Petrus antwoordde de verzamelde menigte in Jeruzalem: "Bekeert u, en een ieder van u worde gedoopt ..." Is Handelingen 2:38 echter nog wel relevant in dit ruimtetijdperk? Verlangt God nog steeds de doop voor iemand die een christen wil worden?
