The Joshua Institute
Of Biblical Training For Purpose
The Joshua Institute of Biblical Training is designed for the busy person who passionately loves Jesus, hungers for the Word of God, and wants to know how to live pleasing to God. Learning more about the God who saved and loved us is a lifetime project. Our growing list of courses will help you build your knowledge and application of the Word of God on solid rock if you acknowledge that God is the Center of all things. Too much Bible training is man-centered. Our study of the Word of God should be primarily to know God and learn how to please Him. Secondarily, we come to the Word of God to learn how to improve our lives and overcome our difficulties. Below, you will find both types of courses.
For there is nothing that we should enjoy - I use the term advisedly - so much as looking at Him [Jesus]. There is no value in all other teaching if we are not right about Him. Essentially the vital point of all teaching, of theology, and of the whole Bible is to bring us to a knowledge of Him and into relationship with Him. D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones

According to the Bible, you must judge all teaching by the inspired Word of God. Telling God you were following recognized religious leaders will not be an acceptable excuse in the Day of Judgment...We must strengthen our knowledge of the Word of God so we cannot be led astray by doctrines that look like they are from God, but lack a biblical foundation. Finally, may God deliver us from blind dedication to what seemingly good men and women teach. The Word of God is our measuring rod, not the popularity of men. Rev. Judson Cornwall

If you were a new Christian living in Rome around the year AD 200, you would have been required to do three years of schooling with an authorized teacher once a week, outside of the weekly church service, in order to be baptized...Students studied the Scriptures in-depth, and the material was heavily apologetic, instructing new believers on how Christian truth stood superior to pagan philosophy and religion. To modern ears, this sounds rather intense. Today, we would fear that such requirements would turn away prospective believers. After all, there are barbeques to get to and baseball games to watch...They had to put in the time to deeply understand their faith if they were going to persevere through great hardships...They understood that in order for new believers to stand strong in a culture dominated by an opposing worldview, they needed more preparation than weekly worship and potlucks. Natasha Crain, Faithfully Different, Kindle version

Special Note: The teaching manuals of Rev. Stephen Nemeth are available at House Of Judah. They contain both student's and teacher's manuals and are full of rich Biblical knowledge and practice. House of Judah is not connected with Free Bible Study Lessons, but I have personally attended classes under the late Rev. Nemeth and I know you will be richly blessed by His materials.
