1 | Christian Primer Terms? | Bible general Archive 1 | charis | 18115 | ||
Dear Saints and fellows, Again I ask for help in creating a primer for new Christians and those 'on the brink.' The first class will be Christian-Bible terminology. I would like to give basic definitions pertinent to starting a life in Christ Jesus. Please rememeber that I am living in a country with less than 1 percent Christian population (Japan), and very little knowledge of things many would take for granted. A few terms I would like to bring up are: God, Holy Spirit, Trinity, Messiah-Christ, heaven, hell, salvation, justification, redemption, Bible-Old Testament-New Testament, prophecy, ministry, faith, baptism...etc. Please give me a definition of one or more of the above, with a clear Bible reference (Not too many!) Let me know what you might want to add to the above list. Please, do not 'wax poetic' or philosophize. Also, don't refer me to another book or web-site...tell me what YOU think. Be brief; I want to give a list of basic definitions, explain the basics, then have some free discussion, all in about 90 minutes. Think what is most important to you. Thank you all for you help. I plan on publishing the course outline on my homepage as an 'open source.' I pray that it will be a blessing to many in non-Christian nations, and maybe in some so-called 'Christian nations' as well. Blessing to all in Christ Jesus, charis |

RE: first class in terminology. May I suggest the word "creation." You live in a land where all is a part of god. But, by definition, the Creator can not be part of His creation. And some of Him or His image is on the canvas. But He is not the canvas. (Gen 1:1) Jensen P.S. Thomas Jefferson reduced the Bible to what he believed to be essentials and was used by missionaries to the American indians, who were also Pantheists. Bless you in your work. |

Dear Jensen, Greetings in Jesus' name! Thank you for your blessings. I agree that 'creation' is a great addition to the 'list.' I will look into Thomas Jefferson's work in that area. (any suggestions?) In Christ Jesus, charis |
