The spirit of the church : a study on the destination of mankind

The way to Perfection (PREFACE ) Since autumn 1989 I did a monthly bible study for an interdenominational group of people. I decided to do four reference studies portraying the core of the gospel first. On request these global courses have been extended by detail studies that I finished in the summer of 1993.

I am convinced that people should do a bible study without engagement, but should rather be motivated by pursuing a spiritual purpose.

Therefore I choose the title THE WAY TO PERFECTION showing that the Creator intends mankind to come to perfection in line with the principles of the gospel. Man is to be thoroughly equipped for every good work based onthe atonement of Jesus Christ. (See 2 Timothy 3: 14-17).

This bible study encompasses 15 lessons, the first four of which are reference studies. The sequel lessons include the foundation of faith and the building on the foundation.

Further you will find lessons on the so-called heavens, which denote the spiritual world and the revelationof God and man. At the end your will definitions of some keyissues and answers to questions posed by students during the bible course.

These lessons aim at giving a useful outline of themain theme without pretending to be complete. Most lessons are accompanied by questions to stimulate further reflection and application. //// Hessel Hoefnagel
