BIBLE STUDIES
for Home or Groups
During the first Covid-19 Lockdown (2020) I was asked by people isolated in their homes, with limited opportunity to join virtual groups, if they could be helped with Bible Studies suited to the times. These Bible studies are my response: Bible Studies you can do on your own ... or if you prefer and have the opportunity, together with others. But there continue to be those who cannot join a conventional Bible Study group - these studied are for them too.
​
Here are Bible studies that encourage readers to learn what God is saying by looking thoughtfully at the Bible passage being studied. The questions don't ask for opinions, or extensive knowledge of other parts of the Bible. When another part of the Bible helps, or when extra insight or knowledge is needed, the studies give that help. But for most questions, you won't need to have someone check your answers, because you will see from the Bible itself what the right answer is.
​
It's good, though, if you can share your thoughts, answers, and questions with at least one other person. When you do that, you "encourage one another and build each other up" (1 Thessalonians 5:11). That is good for others and good for ourselves. If you can't meet virtually or in reality, perhaps you can phone them.
Please feel free to pass these studies on to others. They can be downloaded, copied, emailed, printed and distributed freely.

Malachi provides a dramatic bridge from the Old to the New Testament. The Old Covenant sacrificial system was being abused, highlighting the need for a perfect sacrifice; a herald of the Messiah is promised; and above all, God’s love for the people he loves and redeems in Christ is highlighted.
