Discipleship is a journey of intentional decisions leading to maturity in our relationship with Jesus so that we become more like Him in our attitude, focus and ultimately behavior.
It requires a commitment from the potential disciple and the disciple-makers. It’s not something that happens by accident or overnight, and it can’t be completed in a 12-week or 3 years class.
This is a lifelong commitment to follow God with our whole self and to both learn from and eventually teach others about how to follow Him.
Be diligent in your Studies and Equip others for God's glory alone.

Bibliology is the study of the Bible, the Word of God. The Bible is the inspired source of knowledge about God, Jesus Christ, salvation, and eternity. Without a proper view of the Bible, our views on these and other issues become clouded and distorted. Bibliology tells us what the Bible is. Common questions in Bibliology are:

Is the Bible truly God’s Word? Our answer to this question will not only determine how we view the Bible and its importance to our lives, but also ultimately will have an eternal impact on us.

What is the canon of Scripture? The basis of Christianity is found in the authority of Scripture. If we can’t identify what is Scripture, then we can’t properly distinguish any theological truth from error.

What does it mean that the Bible is inspired? While there are different views as to what extent the Bible is inspired, there can be no doubt that the Bible itself claims that every word, in every part of the Bible, is inspired by God (1 Corinthians 2:12-13; 2 Timothy 3:16-17).

Does the Bible contain errors, contradictions, or discrepancies? If you read the Bible, at face value, without a preconceived bias for finding errors - you will find it to be a coherent, consistent, and relatively easy-to-understand book.

Is there proof for the inspiration of the Bible? Among the proofs for the divine inspiration of the Bible are fulfilled prophecy, the unity of Scripture, and the support of archeological findings. Its most important proof, however, is in the lives of those who read it, believe it, and live according to its precepts.

Bibliology teaches us that the Bible is inspired, meaning it is "breathed out" by God. A proper Bibliology holds to the inerrancy of Scripture—that the Bible does not contain any errors, contradictions, or discrepancies. A solid Bibliology helps us to understand how God used the personalities and styles of the human authors of Scripture and still produced His Word and exactly what He wanted to be said. Bibliology enables us to know why other books were excluded from the Bible. For the Christian, the Bible is life itself. Its pages are filled with the very Spirit of God, revealing His heart and mind to us. What a wonderful and gracious God we have! He could have left us to struggle through life with no help at all, but He gave His Word to guide us, truly a "lamp to my feet and a light to my path" (Psalm 119:105).

A key Scripture on Bibliology is 2 Timothy 3:16-17, "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." Keep in mind that when Paul the apostle was quoting this Scripture the New Testament had not been written. The OT is God-breath as well as the NT.

It is God’s desire that everyone knows and understands Him.
Let him who boasts boast about this—that he knows and understands God.
Jeremiah 9:23-24

WOMEN NEED SOUND THEOLOGICAL TRAINING

If over half of Christians in the world are women, they need to have serious Bible and theological educations just like men. "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." Galatians 3:28
The issue of submission ("subjection") of a woman to a man Biblically has nothing to do with greater value or worth of a man for both men and women are of equal value as persons to God, but goes to the real issue of submission to functional roles. God created women to do certain things and men other things — neither is better, only different.
At LoHM Bible Training Centers we equip Women to function Biblically and Obey God as they serve in their local churches under Biblically qualified elders.
Soli Deo Gloria🙏

A pastor must faithfully preach the whole counsel of God's Word, carefully explaining the meaning of the text and applying it to the lives of those under his care. A pastor should be an intercessor, bringing the needs of his church before God and modeling prayer both publically and privately.
