Foreword

After the earnest solicitation of many who have used in mimeograph form the outlines of Scripture studies setting forth the teaching of the New Testament on the church of Christ and its work, I have decided to put these studies into more convenient and permanent form.

These lessons are suitable for Bible drills, prayer- meeting topics, ladies’ Bible classes, and regular class work in the Lord’s day school. The lessons are so presented as to be easily comprehended, and may be used by all students old enough to be members of the church. The lessons were prepared primarily for members of the church to give them a better understanding and appreciation of the Bible as a book from above, and of the church as the most glorious institution on earth. It is the hope of the author that all who use them will be edified and encouraged to adorn the doctrine of our Lord with a life of real service in extending the kingdom of heaven among men. The studies are sent forth with a prayer that God’s name may be glorified and his Son exalted in the hearts of the people.
