Institute

Welcome to a journey in fulfilling Christ’s Great Commission as found in Matthew 28:18-20 “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” 

Under the “Expanded Modules” heading are the discipleship lessons found in the menu (“Understanding the Bible” through “Reaching Our World”).

There are also reading assignments, scriptures to memorize, a weekly time sheet to show your activities during the week, and suggested books on related topics.

Part 4  THE BELIEVER’S VICTORY

Reading Assignment: 

Memory Verses (Choose one)

  • 2 Corinthians 10:3-5  For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ.
  • Ephesians 6:10-13  Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.  Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.  Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
