I can’t believe we are in Week Five!!
Below is a devotion from Billy Graham’s Devotions and what you have to do this week!
The last day of class and the last day any work is accepted is June 23, 2025.
. . . for they have rejected the word of the Lord . . .
—JEREMIAH 8:9 (TLB)
The Apostle Paul once asked, “Who art thou, Lord?” That is a question each of us has to face. If Jesus claimed to be the Son of God, knowing He was not, then He was a deceiver, the greatest liar the world has ever known. If He thought He was God and didn’t know the difference, then He was a mental case. But if He was who He claimed to be, then He is rightfully the Lord of our lives. What keeps us from acknowledging this Christ, if He is what the Bible tells us He is?
Each of us has to face the question that Pilate asked, “What shall I do then with Jesus which is called the Christ?” Pilate washed his hands and said he would have nothing to do with Jesus, but God does not let us off that way. We must say “yes” or “no.” We can make fun of Jesus, we can reject Him, we can neglect Him—or we can receive Him.

I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me.
—Luke 22:29
Many people have asked, “Where is heaven?” We are not told in the Scripture where heaven is. Some students have tried to take some Scriptures and put them together and say that heaven is in the north. They quote Psalm 48:2, “The joy of the whole earth is . . . on the sides of the north . . . ” The magnetic needle points north. Perhaps the Celestial City is in the north. We do not know. But no matter where heaven is, it will be where Christ is.Many people ask, “Do you believe that heaven is a literal place?” Yes! Jesus said, “I go to prepare a place for you.” The Bible teaches that Enoch and Elijah ascended in a literal body to a literal place that is just as real as Los Angeles, London, or Algiers! The Bible also teaches that heaven will be a place of beauty. It is described in the Bible as “a building of God”-“a city”-“a better country”-“an inheritance”-“a glory.”
The Bible also indicates that heaven will be a place of great understanding and knowledge of things that we never learned down here.

Dear brothers, I have been talking to you as though you were still just babies in the Christian life . . .
—1 Corinthians 3:1 (TLB)
Some people have received Christ but have never reached spiritual maturity. They have been in church all their lives, and yet they have never become mature Christians. They are still considered “spiritual children” and “babes in Christ.” They know little Scripture. They have little desire to pray, and bear few of the marks of a Christian in their daily living. To say, “I will resolve to do better, I will muster all my will power and revise my way of living,” is noble, but futile. A corpse could as well say, “I will-through sheer effort-rise out of this coffin and be a living man again.” You need a power outside yourself. You cannot get over the habits and chains that are binding you. You need outside help. You need Christ.The Bible tells of a bridge of faith which reaches from the valley of despair to the high hills of glorious hope in Christ. It tells where we are, but beyond that-it tells where we may be in Christ. Now, of course, you will not be completely mature until you are in the presence of Christ, but you should be growing every day as a Christian.
Hi everyone! Welcome to Week 3! I hope you had a great Easter! He is Risen! He is Risen, Indeed!

Most importantly, pray before, during, and after you do your work. Take Jesus with you everywhere! ~Dr. Anthony
I love this devotion by Billy Graham—
So he went and did according unto the word of the Lord . . .
—1 Kings 17:5
As messengers of God, we will often lead lonely lives. “All men forsook me,” said Paul. It is a price we have to pay; there is a loneliness in the Gospel. Yet you will not be alone, because you will be ministered to by the Spirit of God, as Elijah was ministered to at the brook Cherith. A true messenger lives a burdened life. If he is the Lord’s vessel, he carries in his heart a burden for souls none can share but those who know it firsthand.Hi everyone! I hope Week 1 went well for each of you. Please always email me if you have any questions.
This week, you need to read chapters 3 and 4 and watch the videos. Be sure to complete the week 2 devotional and discussion questions. **You don’t have to upload a word document for the devotions or the discussions.**
Finally, be sure to complete the chapters 3 and 4 exams.
Below is a great devotion from Billy Graham’s Daily Devotions. Have a great week! ~Dr. Anthony
He who hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.
—Philippians 1:6
Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion. It is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like Christ. When you start out, you start out as a baby. You must be fed on the simple things of the Bible, and you learn to walk in your Christian life gradually. At first you will fall down and make many mistakes, but you are to continue growing. However, there are many people who have stopped growing. They remain spiritual babes all their lives. I am afraid that this experience is all too common today. Perhaps it is yours.Do you remember the day when you gave your heart and life to Christ? You were sure of victory. How easy it seemed to be more than conqueror through Christ who loved you. Thousands of Christians have struggles with themselves. The great need in Christendom today is for Christians to learn the secret of daily victory over sin.
Hi everyone! Welcome to Week 2!
In week 1, you studied chapters 1 – 3. You’ve probably noticed that each week, you will have a devotion, discussions, videos to watch, chapters to read, and quizzes/exams to take. There is so much to learn in such a short time!
In week 2, you need to study chapters 4 – 5. You should complete the devotion, discussions, and end-of-chapter exams. Be sure to read and watch the videos.
Most importantly, pray before, during, and after you do your work. Take Jesus with you everywhere!
I like to post devotions from Billy Graham! Here is one that I love! ~Dr. Anthony
There is also comfort in mourning, because in the midst of mourning God gives a song. His presence in our lives changes our mourning into song, and that song is a song of comfort. This kind of comfort is the kind which enabled a devout Englishman to look at a deep dark hole in the ground where his home stood before the bombing and say, “I always did want a basement. Now I can jolly well build another house, like I always wanted.” This kind of comfort is the kind which enabled a young minister’s wife in a church near us to teach her Sunday school class of girls on the very day of her husband’s funeral. Her mourning was not the kind which had no hope—it was a mourning of faith in the goodness and wisdom of God; it believed that our heavenly Father makes no mistakes.
Hi Braden.
I started watching The Chosen recently. I haven’t finished. A lot of people recommend this. Glad you were able to take a verse from this show!
