Wisdom Booklet 2

Description

For the first time since originally published in 1984, the Wisdom Booklet series is being made available for anyone interested in gaining an appreciation for the practical application of God’s Word in our lives! Developed to provide a template for how the Word of God applies to all of life, this series encourages you to build a Biblical worldview by learning to apply Jesus Christ’s own Words of Life to the study of linguistics, history, science, law, and health.

Each Wisdom Booklet explores and expands upon the meaning of verses from Jesus’ famous “Sermon on the Mount” as recorded in Matthew 5–7. By taking a unit study approach, the Wisdom Booklets serve to “scratch the surface” of the depth of the riches of God’s Word, and it is our prayer that each booklet will awake in you a desire to meditate and search more deeply into the Scriptures. Each booklet provides intriguing and thought-provoking examples on how to apply Jesus’ teachings to modern life. Filled with illustrations, concepts and analogies that will stay with you for life, the Wisdom Booklets show a perspective into the heart of God.

We invite you to take a closer look at a free sample of Wisdom Booklet 1 and consider how this valuable resource would be of benefit to you as an individual Bible study resource, a discipleship tool for parents with their children, or as a group study for small groups or Sunday School. Most importantly, we desire for you to see that the Word of God is approachable and brings us into a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.

In Wisdom Booklet 2:

Wisdom Booklet 2 expounds upon Matthew 5:1b-2 and how Jesus made a conscious decision to disciple the multitudes by communicating truth. This book shows how we can become disciples of Christ through developing self-control and learning important aspects of the Greek language for rightly dividing the Word.

• We will learn through the history lesson that the Revolt of the Maccabees was a tragic page in Jewish history and how we can avoid militant behaviour as a follower of Jesus.
• We go on to explore the academic fallacies of humanistic philosophies on law, science and morality versus the absolute truths from God — the Source of all wisdom.
• We will discover why the mastery of math assists us in developing Godly character qualities and how the functions of speech relate to the principles of discipleship.
