#2 SIN AND THE BLOOD OF CHRIST
Length: 30 minutes Complexity: Easy
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." (Rom. 3:23). Thus the Bible states man's failure and unfitness before God. Every accountable person finds himself under sin's condemnation. It behooves every thinking person to pause and ask, "What is sin?" and "How can I be made free from sin's terrible punishment?" Click on the lesson image to download as a PDF.

#4 THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH
Length: 35 minutes Complexity: Easy
There is but one true church! This is the church we read of in the Bible. It is the church that was purchased by the blood of Christ (Acts 20:28) and started by the apostles. One must be in this church to be saved. It is these facts we wish to demonstrate to the student in this lesson as well as a study of worship in the early church.

#5 DENOMINATIONALISM
Length: 35 minutes Complexity: Easy
In lesson four we studied the church of the New Testament. We discovered that Christ had come to build the church and that the saved were added to it. We also saw that Christ built only one church and that every Christian in the first century was a member of that church. Today it is different! There are hundreds and hundreds of differing churches. Where did they all come from? Do they please God? In this lesson we will study what is denominationalism as well as what is the remedy for it. Click on the lesson image to download as a PDF.

#6 BAPTISM
Length: 35 minutes Complexity: Easy
It seems strange that anyone would ever question the necessity of baptism in becoming a Christian. So much is said concerning this subject in the New Testament. Jesus said, "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" (Matt. 28:18,19). In this last lesson we investigate the commandment of baptism, how it is to take place, why it is to take place, and what happens if you choose NOT to be baptized.
