Further Education
There are several places in the Scriptures where education is stated as important: Matthew 10:16 tells us to be WISE as serpents (emphasis mine); 2 Timothy 2:15 says to study to show ourselves approved. Today, there is such a high emphasis put onto education that it should cause the Believer to also have the desire to spend a lifetime to study God and His Word in order to best reach to those who are seeking higher levels of study. It is because of that, what will be found below is a list of courses that are available to help broaden our study of the Scriptures. There is also included a short description of these options to help us know what to expect. To get a fuller understanding, it would be also advised to click on the links and go to the site itself.
I have tried to put out the colleges and study plans that are Biblically based. If you find a problem please let me know. Feel free to learn and grow from these studies and may you be strengthened in the Faith! God bless!
