Adult Bible Fellowship (ABF)
This year in our Bible Fellowship groups we are focusing on the discipleship theme: ORIGINAL – According to God’s Design.
Our theme verses for this year of discipleship are found in John 1:1-5 (NLT) which says - In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.
What does it mean to be the ORIGINAL? It is defined as preceding all others in time; first. To be ORIGINAL is to not be derived from anything else. Scripture makes it clear that there is only one ORIGINAL and that is the LORD God. In the beginning He already existed. Everything is created through God, and nothing was created except through Him.
Therefore, since God is the ORIGINAL, that means He has a unique design, a plan, an order for life. What is His design? That’s a great question! Does He have a design for such things as redemption, sanctification, family, work, marriage, friendships, etc.? The truth is – He does! What does life look like according to God’s design? Abundant Life! John 10:10 (NASB) says – “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.”
We will explore these questions and many more in our weekly ABF (Adult Bible Fellowship) groups this year. During the year, we will focus on eight units of study. Each unit of study will unpack important key concepts of our ORIGINAL study.
Join us weekly in a small group on Sundays as we explore this exciting topic – ORIGINAL – while discovering helpful keys to living according to God’s Design.
